Erasmus experience

In the first semester, I had been an Erasmus student in Warsaw, when I arrived in the country I was very surprised because I didn’t expect it as it was. The first week, while I was looking for a flat for rental, I stayed in a hostel with more Erasmus students, finally we found one. Luckily, our landlord spoke English, so we didn’t have any problem talking with her.

At the beginning, it was a bit strange as it was very far from Spain and the Polish people wasn’t very friendly with foreigners.

Few days after that, the first of October, the classes at University started, where I had to catch a tram to go there. In the class, we were all Erasmus students, Turkish and Spanish. I chose five subjects but later I decided to change two of them, because, they were taught in Polish, being so difficult. The teachers were very nice, and the coordinator solved all the problems quickly.

There was an association called ESN, which organized trips and other activities. One of these trips organized by them, was to Krakow, which I decided to go, enjoying very much the city and meeting many interesting people.

The weeks were passing and the weather was getting very cold. In November, we were at 0 degrees celsius or even less. In this month, my friends and I traveled to Wroclaw, a charming but small Polish town.

 At the end of November, we traveled to Berlin, which I loved it. After this trip, we went to Stockholm, a nice city too but very expensive.

In December it was snowy, so it was very cold. At the end of this month, I returned to Spain for Christmas.

After Christmas, I returned to Warsaw, when I got off the plane it was very cold, -14 degrees. In this month I didn’t travel, but my friends came to visit me.

Finally in February, I returned to Spain.

To sum up, I loved this experience and I recommend it to everyone.
