They offer a bunch of trips but I've tentatively narrowed my choices down to either Prague or Barcelona. If anyone has experience with either locale feel free to weigh in on my decision. Where would you rather study, assuming you're 20-21 years old? My primary criterion is level of fun/interest. Poll: Where is the Awesomest? (Vote): Prague, Czech Republic (Vote): Barcelona, Spain (Vote): Other (please specify)  | ||

I hate traveling, and I hate struggling through language to take care of even basic necessities. That's just me, though. | ||

Don't change money on the streets, do it in a bank or one of the exchange houses otherwise they will rip you of. Don't do stupid shit in public when police is around, they will see that you are a tourist and totally fine your ass. | ||

I was just about to suggest that haha, but I've only been there for a holiday, don't know what school life will be like. If you do choose Japan get ready to experience awesome things. (And possibly culture shock.) | ||

Never been to Barcelona, but during the summer it's supposed to be too hot. Spanish food is nice though. For a 3rd option Århus and Copenhagen in Denmark are both good, semi-reputable places to study. It's probably going to be a bitch finding a cheap place to live, but if you can, Denmark and danish culture is something to experience. | ||

One of the best cities I've ever been to, it's awesome! | ||

Gotcha. http://www.askmen.com/top_10/travel/20b_travel_top_ten.html Prague is 5th on the list for the cities with the world's most beautiful women. I don't see Barcelona on that list. Go to Prague! | ||

I was hopin the poll results would be lopsided, but nope I still got a tough decision :/ Leaning toward Prague I guess... Barcelona sounds like a non-stop party which might be a bit more than I need. But damn I do love the beach.. fffuuuuuuuuuuuuuu- | ||

Prague pros: beer, cigarettes (a con if you, like me, don't smoke), easy to travel to southern Germany/Vienna/Budapest + maybe Venice/Milan. Both palces have nice architecture (plus to Prague since I find Barcelona is a bit over-the-top), art (plus to Barcelona no doubt), and women (tie). As a third option, it may be worth considering something in Italy. It all depends on what you're studying as well! | ||

Having been to prague it didnt seem _that _ bad there but there racism is still very much present. Cops might fine you for "walking on the wrong side of the road" etc. | ||
