Personal comments
There were three student pubs that I loved going too, especially Pudas, which was in the dorm complex I was in. The student Pubs are the places to meet all the students. There is also a pastry shop near the McDonalds that is absolutly wonderful. My friends always visted there and we really loved the food there.

Personal comments
I had my own room and bathroom in the corridor, and the room was better then what I am furnished with here. I also loved being in the co-ed floors and having a common kitchen area to talk with all the other students I lived with.

Travel a lot and visit the castle! A bike is great to have and if you live in Seminarievagen, go to the two grocery stores in Dalbo Centrum, their cheaper. And there are no persitives in the Milk - there are like 5 varieties of milk - so its very fresh.

Academic
Course recommendations
I was in the Swedish Language class and my teacher was absolutly horrid. The books were more like readers which didnt teach us how to speak the language and our teacher didnt know how to communicate with us.
