In the beginning I wasn't really sure if I want to learn swedish at all, but I realized that if I really want to get to know some swedes I would have to. don't get me wrong, they nearly all speak perfect english, but when you go out with them they might not want to speak english with their friends all the time. And I want to know what they say to them anyway ;)

It was quite hard because there is too many students from your home country and it is not easy to meet swedish people

Student bars are not amazing, but cheap prices make up for that. Otherwise there are a lot of 'trendy' bars in town.
