Personal comments
linguistic immersion is the only effective way to learn a language. I could read english and express myself a bit but after this erasmus experience, I was able to communicate, understand native speakers and chat with them rather correctly. since danish do not have english as a mother tongue language (though they have a solid knowledge of it) and that they are reluctant to speak with foreigners, I spoke english mostly with other erasmus students (most of them are coming from spain)

My semester (Spring 2003) was great! All the 70 foreign students at the ASB knew each other very well, we all went to parties toghether and we still comunicate... We have meetings each others countries and we created a great community. The school makes an excellent job promoting this social experience. The tutors are also great! They help you a lot... Travel with Ryanair to other countries. Book in advance. It is quite cheap. If you stay is Stockholm please stay at the Red Boat! Book in advance! Be sociable, make danish friends. It will be worth it. If you want to get laid, go to Train (you must be over 23 to get in, sorry...). Get a bike. Although the buses are great, always on time, they are quite expensive! Arrange a visit to Ceres, the local beer factory. They give you free beer at the end. Believe me, you will literally roll down the lawn (personally tested). The weather is not the best. But do not stay at home. Socialize. Arrange parties at your place, go to parties in the other students residences! From January to the end of February I just had a glimpse of the sun 6 times. Yes, you can count by your fingers the times you see the sun in the Winter. However, the Spring is awesome, beautiful.

Visit the top-north (the greatest -and the only!- place to visit is at the top of Dk where Atlantic and Baltic meet) and Aalborg. Of course Copenhagen but there's not so much to do. Stockholm if you can (with a rail-pass of two weeks, that's the cheapest) Hamburg and Berlin : not so far, rent a van with others it won't cost you a lot.

Personal spending habits
Food, activities in general are much more expensive in Dk thn in Belgium. Basically, you must add twenty percent to the unit cost in Belgium. A beer is sometimes about 40 EUR! Anyway, I travelled with erasmus friends by van and it was really cheap, and so rich with respect to socialisation. Since Aarhus is far more wanted for its accomodation than Brussels, the price is consequently nearly the same. In fact, Brussels is expensive for that.

Course recommendations
Business and Management Communication is great. International Trade Law looks also good. Don´t take Intercultural Communication with John Bulman May - the lectures are not at all about what you would expect, he just writes words like "binary" and "postmodernism" on the blackboard. International Organizations and Markets is quite boring.

I didn´t like that you can´t choose the date of your exam - there is only one possibility.
