o univerzitě
Čím byla tvá univerzita výjimečná? Jak vypadaly prostory ve kterých jsi studoval(a) a univerzitní vybavení?
The University of Coimbra was quite modern and well equipped. It had various faculties spread across the whole city but my faculty (Faculty of Economics) was pretty close to the center.
Co tě první napadne, když pomyslíš na svou "adoptivní" univerzitu. Čím byla výjimečná? Jak vypadaly prostory ve kterých jsi studoval(a) a univerzitní vybavení?
The lessons were much more interactive than on Charles University, the teachers tried to make them fun rather than just theory. The exams consisted mainly of midterms and final short written essays, which was perfect for me.
Jak vypadá studentský život na univerzitě?
The life at the university in Coimbra is very friendly and sympathetic. The student clubs and organizations introduced us to the Portuguese culture in the first week and also organized many events throughout the year for us to enjoy.
Studoval(a) jsi v angličtině, nebo v jazyce hostitelské země? Jaké požadavky jsou v oblasti jazyka kladeny univerzitou?
I communicated in English, had all my lessons in English but took a Portuguese class which was very fun. But the uni only requires English.
o městě
Jak na tebe město působilo? Jak byste jej charakterizoval/a? Co je zde zajímavého k vidění?
The city of Coimbra was very student friendly, very youth oriented and full of energy. It was also very hilly so one had to climb up and down all the town. But other than that it was perfect for Erasmus - not too big, not too small, not violent or dangerous and very well spirited. Many students hang out at Praca which is the main meeting spot, we also used to go to jam session in Liquidambar every Wednesday which was very fun - everyone could join and play some instrument.
o financích
Jak lze podle Tvojí zkušenosti vyjít se stipendiem? Kolik procent výdajů Vám pokrylo? Jaký je Váš názor na ceny v zemi obecně?
It is quite difficult to comply with the scholarship, especially since you wanna see a lot of places and go to various events in order to enjoy the country to the fullest. My scholarship ran out in 2 months so I had to ask my parents to lend me some money for the remaining 2 months. But otherwise Portugal is not an expensive country, it's just the student life that all of us wanted to enjoy there.
Poraď prosím spolužákům, jak ušetřit - Kde nakupovat? Jaké služby lze v rámci úspory financí využívat?
I would recommend shopping in Pingo Doce which is the cheapest way to get groceries. Beer is not that cheap as in Czech so prepare to pay for that.
o ubytování
Jaké ubytování sis zvolil(a)? Doporučil(a) bys jej ostatním? A pokud ne, jaká varianta ubytování je podle Tvých zkušeností nejlepší (kolej, ubytování v soukromém bytě, soukromá kolej, sdílený pokoj a podobně...)?
I lived in a shared house with 11 other Erasmus students and I would recommend it to everyone. It is very fun! We had 2 bathrooms, one kitchen and a garden which was a blast. Not everyone got along since some of my housemates were introverted and did not really go to many events but most of them were fun and we enjoyed a lot of great days at the house.
o zážitcích
Využil(a) jsi Erasmu k cestování po tvé zemi/Evropě? Jaké jsou tvoje nejlepší cestovatelské zážitky? Co naopak nedoporučuješ?
I travelled just a little bit - to Faro, Lisbon and Porto, which are the easiest places to visit. There are direct buses and the route is fine. I went to Porto multiple times because it is close and has a lot to offer. We also travelled to the beach many times, especially Figueira de Foz.
Jazyk a kultura: jakých kulturních odlišností jste si všiml/a? Jak jste se vypořádával/a s národním jazykem? Byl to i jazyk vašeho studia? Máte pocit, že jste se v jazyce díky pobytu posunul/a?
I communicated in English, had all my lessons in English but took a Portuguese class which was very fun. But the uni only requires English.
závěrečné hodnocení
Proč právě sem? V čem je lokalita výjimečná? Proč bys své kamarády do své země/ města poslal/a ty?
I think the town has the best combination of right size, safety, a lot of international students, many events, possibilities of hikes and ocean as well, it is also well centered in context of Portugal and the university offers many great courses.

Leaving. I had a great group of friends, the school was fun, everything was fine for me so leaving and coming back to Czech was the hardest.
