well, school is nice! I loved the lessons, teachers and especially the other students. Las palmas is very nice if you try to have a good time, there is something for everyone and in less than 15 minutes you can be in another part of the city and see lots of cool things. I enjoyed it a lot and will come back!

If lodging in "Best Residence" - get the highest floor, as long as it's very loud otherwise. Better: Book apartment along

if you stay for just about 2 or 3 weeks take the residence to live there. it's much easier there to get to know some people really well. for a longer term: you can get good apartments for EURO 500 or less a MONTH(!!!) directly on the beach. price for the lessons is really OK.
