Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why?
Most of exchange students do live on campus and there is a perfect opportunity to socialize with others. Living somewhere else will make me feel separated. Besides the localization in the centre of Helsinki was perfect.

Personal comments
Haaga university took care of everything connected with housing so I didn't have to bother of anything. As I mentioned before, the localization was perfect and I had many friends from different countries living next to me. I shared the room with a friend from my home university so we got on well. There was a free sauna in the same building so we were making a good use of it. The most serious drawback was the price for acommodation - it was quite high as everything in Finland and generally in Scandinavia. Some students also had a few problems connecting with the Internet, but they were solved quite fast.

Personal comments
In Finland they separate students firstly by the sex and then they gather the students in the same flat by the same nationalities.Mixed with other nationalities and share the flat with both sex would be much more interesting. That makes part of the exchange programm. Living with peole from the same countries will only make people to gather in groups from the same country besides that some of them cant perform their english. Hopefully there was no more portuguese students besides me.
