Personal comments
As I was on campus I did not have to travel much except to the swimming hall which was a short bike ride away. I loved jogging/rollerblading/cycling round the lake when I thought I'd better do some exercise-weather permitting of course! Sivans was a great place to meet friends on a Wednesday night and Stallanas on a Friday. Town nightlife wasn't up to much but flights to Stockholme are cheap and well worth the effort if you like the city life.

The best night spot is Stallarna, a student's pub. It is not something special but the atmosphere is really familiar because most of the students are going there.
I liked a lot a cafe in the center called Mila's. The decoration is different from teh other cafe's and it has as well great deserts.
A place that you should not miss when the weather is warm enough is Evedal. You can swim on the alke at this place.

No, I really liked the system where we studied only one course at a time and then had an exam on just that one course. Then we began the next one. They also have this great system of retakes here...if you fail the first time, you can take it again later!
