I just want to underline that is really cheap and easy to travel through Europe with low cost companies and that this university is situated at 300km from London, 200 from Amsterdam and Less than 500 from Paris.

Most of the time I used English as the main language. It was the language between international students. I also had the chance of watching English programs on TV.

I think that if you give Vlissingen a chance and find the right people you will have the time of your life... I recommend hanging out with the Spanish (best parties for sure!)

Final comments

During your stay it should be a must to travel to all nearby cities. Belgium is so close e.g. Brugge, Brussels and Antwerp (don't miss the original Belgian chocolates and waffles!).. for sure visit Amsterdam and it nightlife. Even the wonderful city of Cologne, Germany is only about 2,5 h away!
