There are two reasons why I wanted to come to southern Germany to study .I wanted to be at the centre of Europe ,within easier reach of other countries ,and cities such as Paris and Prague .the other reason was that is was finding it very difficult to find a place to study medicine

in Norway ,where there are ONLY three medical schools . I spent my last two years at a boarding school ,where I made lots of friends and learned to look after myself and integrate with other people .I was 19 when I left ,and those two years had changed me ;I knew I could cope with student life in another country .

First I had to learn German .I went Munich in September ,a month before the term started ,and spent three weeks on a language with them .nobody spoke Norwegian ,of course ,so it was a great he;[ to find that there were other students from Norway at the university .I made friend with some of them and we were able to help one another during the Firestone few weeks in a new city .after sic months in moved into my own apartment ;there is a wonderful mix of cultures and is have made many friend form different places .for three years I had a Norwegian boy friend WHO was also studying to be a doctor ,but that ended when he left .

I would recommend studying abroad to anyone .you get a chance to learn another language and to understand the culture and traditions of another country .Munich is a fantastic city for students ,especially as beer is the favourite drink of student everywhere .I didn't like beer before ,but if you live in Munich ,there really is no alternative ,and now i have acquired the taste .In winter i prefer to visit cafes and talk with friends,but in summer my favourite place is the Englisher Garten ,with its lake and park and lots of barstool .the city's beer halls are generally full of students and tourists .

At weekends I often go skiing in the Australian Alps with friends. we pile into a couple of Carson and rent an apartment .this all costs money ,and ,like most students ,I am living on a loan from the government ,by the time i take my final exams i shall have serious problems .I hope to get a job in a hospital near Oslo .I worked there last summer ,while earning the money to go to Nepal ,Thailand and Vietnam fore three months .
