sweden and foriegn exchange student?
So I have been looking into it and I want to be a foreign exchange student next year, most likely to Sweden. So I have a few questions. Is Sweden a more rural or urban place? Have you ever been to Sweden and what was it like? Have you ever been a foreign exchange student to anywhere and what were your experiences? And what is a good way to come up with money, $7,000 to be exact, to make the trip?

Sweden is a very beautiful place. I have been there during the summer and I went to a Stockholm. I don't know what part of Sweden you want to go to but I believe it is pretty everywhere, I loved it! Everyone that I met there was very friendly and I loved listening to the language even though I was not there long enough to pick up any of it. Good luck, I hope you like it and have a blast. Good luck coming up with the money!

I don't have any experience as an exchange student, so I'll not go into that. But I am Swedish, so I could add a little to the rural/urban part of your question. Sweden is very urban in the sense that most people live in cities, and very few work in the agricultural sector. But there's lots of space, here, and a wood, a lake or the coastline is usually never far off - not even in the biggest cities. Have you made any plans as to what place you're going to?

Well, that all depends on what you prefer. Sweden is a little bit of both actually. Most of the Swedish population lives in cities though. I am Swedish and live in Stockholm but as a kid I went to elementary school in England, I hated it. On the other hand i guess that is what you can expect when all of a sudden you are forced into uncomfortable blazers and ugly ties when you really want to wear a Kurt Cobain t-shirt. A for the 7,000$, ????? work?
