"I have heard that they have a good level of English."

1: An Erasmus experince for me includes experiencing the country´s culture (food, traditions, art, history), learning something about the language, the way of living in the country and of course meeting both people from abroad but also people for the country.
2:An Erasmus experince in East Europe would be something not a lot of people from Denmark do, or at least I do not know anyone who went to East Europe. I guess it has something to do with history, just 20 years ago, a lot of East Europe was more or less closed for us. But I thing it would be interesting to go to East Europe because actually I have a lack of knowledge about East Europe.
3:I thing Erasmus stays in East Europe would help people becom more open minded towards East Europe, and in the long run help making the countries Europe work more together.
4:Well as I wrote before; it is still not so common to go to East Europe as West Europe in general, like when we go on vaccation etc. I do not know what the differences would be, however, I think some people chose not to go to East Europe because they are a bit "affraid". Here in Denamrk for example; there are a lot of problems with criminals comming from East Europe to Denmark. Every week a new incidence is on the news, and even though people know that everyone in East Europe are not criminals, it still contributes to a negative image of East Europe. And I think that is the real stopper for people, they do not know anything about East Europe except from what they hear on the news and most of that is unfortunatly negative!
5: Would I consider it; I hope I would, the attractive side would be to learn something about Romania, and I have heard that they have a good level of english.
6:Actually I only know that it is the home of Dracula and they should have better weather than in Denmark.
7: Well if I get the chance I would go either on Erasmus or on holiday.
8: Staying for free is always a good opportunity to get to know the country, and at a price students can afford. So jep I would go.
9: He he sorry but Dracula still comes first to my mind, and the oldest skelletons of Homo Sapiens were found in Romania, and then again better weather than here (it really does matter:))
10:People, language, culture, study program, transport.
