Personal comments
I took part in 3 courses organised by the Folksuniversitet in Lund studying Swedish. These were of use for conversation however as all locals spoke almost fluent English it was not a problem and was to an extent difficult to practice Swedish at times. Together with the fact that my courses were taught in English also. Communication was therefore very easy for me.

Personal comments
My city is quite small and accomadation is kind of a problem for international students. Expecally if they are looking for a place that university offers. I recommend the prospective students to think outside the box and take risks. I did the same thing and now I'm living in a perfect apartment with less costs.

Overall
These years have so far been the most creative and mind-opening years of my life. The different courses have helped me discover aspects of fashion I didn't know existed. My reading and writing skills have been sharpened up, I've found this new drive to speak and discuss with my peers and the teachers.

Why?
It is the best way to learn from the swedish university life in Lund, and it provides a unique framework to get fully involved in all the student life it can offer.

Personal comments
It is really difficult to find any accomodation in Lund. There is not enough space for all the incoming students, so you must always try to fix it by your own instead of relying on the university.
