Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: With a family
Why?
Campus was fabulous but to get a genuine experience of the Swedish life and culture this option would probably be best although I don't know if I could cope if they gave me a cerfew!!! Campus is an excellant choice other than that.

Personal comments
It was nice to find my own shower room, I would have hated charing. I loved the fact I had a sauna on the ground floor that I frequently used and generally miss terribly now.

Course recommendations
I was in the Swedish Language class and my teacher was absolutly horrid. The books were more like readers which didnt teach us how to speak the language and our teacher didnt know how to communicate with us.
