When I arrived in Stockholm I was overwhelmed by the idea of getting to stay and study here for 5 months. Unfortunately, Global Friends couldn't arrange anyone to pick me up when I arrived, but with a map and some common sense I was able to pick up the keys and find my room by myself. The following days of introduction were really usefull. It was nice to get to know some people that were in the same situation as I was and it was great to talk with people from all over the world. Funny though, to discover how different we all are!
I haven't been in contact with the student health centre, but when I needed help, I went immediately to the 'cityakuten'. This because I already had a reference letter and because I had already been under treatment in the Netherlands. The doctors at this centre are something between GPs and specialists and they helped me out immediately.
