  • Umeå pride 2018

    Just came home, and have a great feeling, after the umepride 2018... Was the first time i have ever been in a pride parade, so did not what to expect.. From videos and pictures in big cities, I was ready for a lot of colours, music and glitter all around. But...

  • Grattis på födelsedagen!

    So, finally 20... The first idea was not to celebrate my birthday, other than a prinsesstårta in the preparty on Saturday night. However, as some german people told me, celebrating your birthday before the actuall day is bad luck in Germany. So then, Rebecca, a best...

  • Team building day and first international pub!

    Just woke up with a terrible hangover, after yesterday night, but let´s start from the beginning! So the day started yesterday morning, a warm, sunny day in the universum. (That's the campus, when no snow... ) All the buddy groups were gathered, and then we started...

  • Hooking up in Sweden

    Today I am bringing an interesting topic to the table, and we'll see if it hots up the comments, which ultimately few people will comment on! What I'm saying may be seen as a little biased because I have a partner, and the majority of people that I go out with are the...

  • End

    I thinkthat the blog ends here for the moment I have tried to explain the steps to ask for the Erasmus. Others things that you have to prepare like baggage and stuff, no longer correspond to this blog. Make the bag with time and not get bogged down by...

  • Flying

    When it comes on and you know you are accepted and you have any problem with the subjects, it is time to buy the plane to go. It is normal that you've already looked at before, but I recommend to don’t buy until you are sure you're going to go, then if for some reason...

  • Sign Financial Agreement

    Do not you forget to sign the financial agreement in the university, the ORI. There are some dates to do it. Do not forget to sign it, because if not, you will lose your scholarship! I signed even before knowing I was safe Umea, but hey that's the way... When I signed...

  • Now you have to wait

    During the following months, if you're lucky, you will not do anything, just wait. As I said, if you're lucky. If not, you can get emails from the host university, telling that some of the subjects you have requested could not do them (as happened to me. ) In principle...

  • Learning agreement

    One of the paperworks that it is necessary to do is the learning agreement, although it depends on the university of destination. The University gives you one quite simple, but a lot of universities will ask you for more detailed one (as the one of Umea). Here you have...

  • Think about the subjects

    Think well the subjects that you will choose. In Umea subjects are one a time. If you can choose between several courses, it would be better if they were easier, but if you are fluent in English,do not worry if you take a subject very difficult. I took the first the...

  • Validations

    This step is the most important of all. You have to find some validation that are consistent with your career next year. The best thing is that you have already thought that subjects want to validate, but not always easy, because maybe in the destination you've been...

  • First news of the Erasmus

    In early January, they will publish a list of selected people for Erasmus. Howerver, all are selected except those that don’t arrive until minimum requirements. This list is pretty stupid. If you know that you meet the minimum requirements, this list is useless. Check...
