You did it very well. I have only a suggestion you could mixt international students with home students in the university houses. I will fruitful for all and Erasmus students willget easily in to the local culture.

Being a student abroad is an experience I suggest to every student. I gives you new perspectives. You became more mature. You learn many things you will not learn at home. And the experince of meething people from all over the world is very interesting.

The international student department is extremely helpful and organised, so there is always help available. And one thing I wish I'd done- work harder to get to know more locals.

Final comments

For anyone open-mided, ERASMUS is a basic life exeprience. For many students this could be the first real opportunity to see is own life from a different point of view. You could be a flying devil, with a safeti net below, that is the best image that pops up in my mind.

Housing

Type of housing: Apartment/House

Arranged by: Host university

If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House

Why?

I like company, but also to have my own space. I think that this kind of accomodation allows both of these things.

Personal comments

Even if I could expres some complains, at the end the accomodation that Glasgow University provided to me was exaclyt what I needed. Close to the university, not far from the city centre and above all close to all my friends.
