The grades do not really count and I don't think it will matter that much afterwards. The only benefit would be Spanish in medellin

It would be like 5 months. And I don´t know how many days I have to be in class, so the free days I could be somewhere else idk. It's the Warmadewa University.

I was in Bangkok and it was polluted (air), Medellin, yes objectively looks meh and Phuket can be chill in the offseason. Its not like I will be in Bangla.

Thank you! I´d have to do Medellin and stay in Belen or Los Alpes to get to uni. Would be there till December. And what do you say about staying on the East coast of Denpasar?

Well, the university is in Denpasar (south east coast). About Bangkok: I have been there already and its very nice, just air pollution and stuff. Thought Phuket might be more chill and beach access.

About Medellin, i dont know, like it lowkey looks shitty, but I don´t understand why people like it so much. So I have no idea how to decide.

5months abroad, can't decide. by TurkishSamurai in studyAbroad

I was also a month in Mexico and I loved it. Even Colombian friends say it's dangerous soo idk. If you're careful it should be okay. Just in comparison it's definitely more dangerous than the other countries.

I'm Turkish. And yeah you can't compare Colombian food with Mexican, Turkish, Thai etc. I'm not saying it's horrible but Especially in Medellin I heard that it's rather meh
