I need help deciding! (Erasmus)
I am a student and I need to choose one of these cities to live in for at least four months, so any advice would be greatly appreciated. Please share your opinions and experiences if you have any, regarding prices, lifestyle, people, activities, beauty, and so on.
The options are:
Lisbon, Portugal 🇵🇹
Prague, Czech Republic 🇨🇿
Valencia, Spain 🇪🇸
Madrid, Spain 🇪🇸
Warsaw, Poland 🇵🇱
(Correct me if I have any incorrect information)
Lisbon is a big wish of mine. It looks wonderful and relaxed, and the people seem cheerful to me. I see potential for various activities, and the city is huge, so I think I would never be "bored" because I could always explore something new. It is probably just a bit more expensive.
Prague, I have already visited as a tourist once, and out of all the cities in Europe, it left the strongest impression on me. It is a city that has something special, and the people are also nice. Regarding prices, it is very similar to Croatia. I can totally imagine myself living here for at least four months without getting bored, but I would like to give a chance to the ones I haven't visited yet.
Valencia, this city is definitely on my list to visit. It is such a beautiful, tropical-feeling city with so much potential that can be utilized, not to mention the activities. I can also totally imagine myself living here. I can say similar things about Madrid, although I am still hesitant about it as an option.
Warsaw, definitely a positive surprise after I researched it a bit more (I am a fan of New York, so it makes sense). An accessible city that combines the classic and the modern. I hadn't thought about it at all before, but now it keeps popping into my head.
