What our students said about Sapporo

5.0

Rating: 5/5

Weather ok now, really cold in winter and lots of snow! Sapporo itself is easy to explore, but after three weeks it is no longer sooo interesting in the city center.

The good mix between learning and leisure. You learn a lot at school, but still have a lot of time for other things.
Very good school. You make friends very quickly. The cultural activities are sometimes a bit expensive for what you get on offer. And sometimes certain activities are badly organized (especially the free activities). But all in all, I had a great time at school.
