Erasmus Experience in Split, Croatia by Macarena
Why did you choose to go to Split, Croatia?
Because of the sea. During summer time, it is spectacular and is very relaxing and beautiful during the all year.
How long is the scholarship? How much money do you receive to help you with living costs?
I receive kn 300 per month, plus accommodation in the students dorm (Where I need to pay kn 800 per month), plus a card for 3 meals per day with a 75% of discount.
What is the student lifestyle like in Split?
I would say is very relaxing and you have time to do whatever you like to do. Erasmus organises activities and there are parties and some night clubs to go during the weekend. The rest is walking around, drinking coffee, beer, vino, traveling around and meeting friends.
Would you recommend the city and the University of Split to other students?
Yes, ofcourse. But I only did a course of croatian language.
What is the food like?
I'm a vegeterian and ther are not too many options for me... I would say they eat a lot of fried things and very cooked vegetables... But here most of all vegetables and fruits are organic, so I think thats amazing. A lot of fast food.
Did it cost you to find your accommodation in Split?
No.
How much does it cost to live in Split?
Not much. I spend per month around kn 3. 000 or 3. 500, including the gym and going out.
Is the language easy to get to grips with? Are there language courses available at the University?
The language is very hard, I would say.... But you can get very easily the basic words or very basic conversation.
What's the easiest or most economical way to travel to Split from your city?
By plane.
Where would you recommend to go on a night out in Split?
Kamaleon and Vanilja.
And for eating? Can you recommend some good restaurants in Split?
Lučica Restaurant.
What good cultural sites are there to visit?
Marko Marulic's museum and the theatre.
Is there any other advice that you could give to students going to Split in the future?
You can travel a lot in Croatia when you're here, because it'is cheap and you can find very beautiful places and beaches.
