Housing

Type of housing: Residence Hall

Arranged by: Host university

If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House

Why?

Although I enjoyed living with international and Spanish students; if I were to return to Salamanca, I would choose to live independently due to my age, diet, and the autonomy that I have grown accustomed to.

Personal comments

Spanish was very easy and there was nothing else I could have done to prepare myself. It's one of those things you just need to jump into and immerse yourself in. It is a little difficult at first but most Spaniards are very patient and willing to help.
