Who here's done/doing it?

I know someone's at a uni in France just now, but I've forgotten who (woops, sorry).

Where did you go? How did you find it? Would you recomend it? How did you finance it? Were there language barriers and how did you cope with that?

I'm seriously considering applying to do a semester somewhere in Europe next year, possibly Romania or somewhere like that. I've been informed that if my application is succesful, I'll be funded through it via Erasmus.

I don't feel like I've seen enough of the world and I want to experiance MORE!
