Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - I had no other choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
I think sharing an apt with other exchange students is the best option overall, because you can interact with people your age and have some kind of privacy (especially if you have a room for yourself, as i did).

Personal comments
They didn't help at all - had to arrange all by myself, searching for rooms to rent through loquo.com. It was a hard process visiting so many places: i visited some 15 different apartments. Some were so crappy and at bad areas of barcelona - it was my first time in the city and i didn't know where were the good and the bad neighbourhoods. I think the uni could have been more helpful, maybe putting the upcoming exchange students in contact.

Personal comments
Academically speaking, the courses were easy in theory, but at the right level for getting a handle on the language. In my opinion they aren't supposed to be the hardest classes that you have ever had.

Language difficulties
Administrative / Institutional
Personal comments
Because Barcelona lies in Catalunya, they speak Catalan and Spanish there. However at uni, they approach you in Catalan, and then swith to Spanish when you dont understand. Sometimes this is very difficult because Catalan is very hard to learn.

catalan skills widen your choice of courses; students have to be very independent and be initiative!
