If you show interest in their language, people in general are more helpful and it's a lot easier to become friends. The main reason for thas is that most of the Spanish students don't speak fluentin English or other foreign languages

They do not have any housing offers for exchange stundets, except for a building which is outside Barcelona, in Badalona actually and it takes forever to reach the University. Better try to find one yourself

Personal comments
"Sanitas" is a very good and cheap health insurance, if you don't have an international one, this is a very good option. Another tip is to buy groceries not in supermarkets but in the small groceries stores near the street market.

The exchange period is something special in life. You go out more often, you travel more often to get to know people, culture and the country itself. Consequently you spend more money. But that is perfectly all right, is not it?
