Holland is a country full of surprises, I suggest to travell around it as much as a student can do. If you like nature you surely are going to enjoy the land.

Try to look at the courses from the ISHSS. They have more choice and you can get to them through the UvA. I actually followed my courses there.

Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: With a family
Why?
I would choose to live with Amsterdam host family if possible so as to understand and get more familiar with the culture(espacially food and language) and the way of life of the people of Holland.

Personal comments
The housing provided was good but would have been better with an existence of a common place with facilities(T.V or Games) where students could meet each other and know their neighbours e.g a common room or a game/sport court.

Personal comments
Some student accomodations are good, others are so bad, that is it better to find something on your own. I had a room assigned, but it was so dirty, far away from the center and expensive, that I chose to find my own appartment.
