Final comments
The best trip of Buddynetwork ist the Moravian Wine trip! (not to be missed) for about 1000 kc you will spend a great weekend! Near jarov dormitory there are restaurants like don vitos pizzaria (right over the street), and tram station nr. 9 biskupcova there is cocafe, where all students enjoyed eating. If you travel somewhere try Studentagency which is really cheap! (Bus station Florenc in Prague) To stay in dormitory - try to get A or B if you dont want to share a bathroom with too many people (if you try to speak good czech - dormitory manager is more friendly to help you with anything you need/want) Be nice to Ladies/Men in the Reception of jarov dormitory (you might need them some day and your paties depend on them letting you celebrate longer - ps: invite other czech students living near you too, so they cannot complaint and terminate your party so)

Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why?
Because you are in kontakt with other students, you really grow to a family, parties, meetings, get to know each other, meet for going out in the evening - simply fun and friends
