3. Academic life at host university
- university facilities not in one area (the city is not big anyways, but a lot of hills - so it might be tiring) - relationship between prof. and student is closer - more individual feeling since prof. approaches students more by offering help

5. Every day life in the host country
havent used public transport, walked or used bolt/uber, felt quite safe, activity wise: the nature in the surrounding, a lot of bars to hang out with friends and colleagues, got a gym membership, but the university offers a lot of activities as well
