Erasmus in different countries
1 Comment Which is the best erasmus city?
Many students questions themselves where to go on erasmus student exchange. This is a tough decision and should be made after some thinking. After all, you will most probably go on erasmus only once in your time on college.
It is not easy to choose from so many great cities in Europe (Madrid, Berlin, London, Lisbon,…).
Most of students think: which is the best erasmus city in Europe?
Where should I go? This is a rather difficult question really because there is no such place as best erasmus city. And I can’t tell which one is it either.
Like there is no best beer or best food in Europe. Everything is relative, just like Einstein said. But if you are still wondering the same – what city would be best for erasmus – than there are few things that you should consider. For example, erasmus city should have a lot of students. Let’s say more than 20.000 all together. That way you will experience a great social life and meet many new students with same ambitions and same interests as you have.
Picking best erasmus city
Furthermore you should always consider what is the standard of living in the country you are going to. Is it higher or lower than your origin country? Try to chose a similar-standard country so that you will not have so much expenses. Also, the city you are intending to go to should have a good public transportation and some student campuses. This way you will also spend less money than you normally would. Next thing that make a city good for erasmus is the history it features. Historical cities are always more interesting to visit and stay in. You can spend days exploring its history, go to museums, parks and so on. And now for the most important thing for young people (students) – the night life.
Which is best erasmus city for party?
The city should be big enough so that it has some decent clubs and bars where you can party every day in the week. But then again, check the prices before you go so that you will not be surprised and disappointed. Being broke abroad can be really unpleasant. One of most popular erasmus destination is of course Barcelona or Madrid. Spain is most popular for erasmus students. Picking the right city for erasmus could be a long process so we suggest you to visit Erasmus forum and get some decent information there. Have a great time on erasmus!
The best erasmus city is Barcelona!! ;)
