What's it like as an international student in Sweden?
I'm currently a freshman at the University of Kansas, and I've never been outside of the country. Well, I visit family in Mexico, but I don't really count that. Anyway, I want to study next year in Sweden. I'm just in love with the country, culture, and history. I'm just not sure what it would be like for an international student. I've done some research, but I'd like some... first hand information? I don't know. I haven't decided if I want to study for a semester or for a year. I've never been too far from my family before, so a year might be TOO much. I'm still deciding. Any tips? Advice? Stories? Also, I'd be studying at Uppsala.

I knew a girl from Seattle who went there and all the time she kept talking how amazing the place was. She said it was one of the nicest places she'd ever been. Students there can become a part of a group they call nations and she would tell me of this old traditions they had and how fun it was. I think she was an exchange student from UW, but not sure. Anyway, I guess it should be great because the place has been there for ages and it's like harry potter school with the old chambers and stuff. And it is an hour away from Stockholm, which is a great place. And once you are in Europe, you can just hit hit the road and get to any of the other great countries like France or Italy on weekends. So I would go there for a year.
