The town is not so expensive Strongly recommended if you want to make an experience abroad but not for this course of studies.
Anonymous rated 3 out of 5 stars
Not very expensive, compared to Swedena dn the UK it was pretty cheap. I spend approximately 300-400 euro/month on food.

No! I would change nothing.. My advice is to actually trust the people around them (like the staff, colleagues, teachers) and let them know for any kind of problems or help needed...it will make your school life easier.. About social life..never say no to anything! Erasmus is about being spontaneous and give to everything (and everybody) a chance! Meet as many new people...
