South america is cool as long as you stay away from the poor people. You could go to french guiana.

double whoa! harsh much?

dude, you have no idea what I said in that post. it was actually a very reasonable further explanation on why I think you're being judgmental.

spreek je geen nederlands ofzo??

I guess you just don't want to go to europe at all? because france is a brilliant country, I think I've been there 5 times in total. it's the transition between west and southern europe, the north and south having a completely different character from one another. Paris is probably the nicest city of europe (bite me, people from London and Rome) and there's a huge amount of culturally interesting buildings and places everywhere. it's also a nice central location if you want to explore the rest of the continent.

there are bunch of places in Africa where you can go to if you speak french.

stuff it, lars!

im sorry but netherlands is pretty much the only scandinavian country outside of scandinavia

anyway being a foreign student and studying in a foreign country rocks. i was lucky enough to be allowed 6 weeks in st petersburg, russia, studying russian language as part of my computer science degree(!). it was f*in great, but i think the major reasons for that was how different russia is from norway in many ways, plus the fact that i was placed in a small appartment with an old russian lady that spoke only russian except for about 30 words in german.

in south africa they don't speak french!
if you are looking for a place in west africa, Accra in ghana is great and they have a few good unis. every country surrounding it speaks french and it's easy and fairly cheap to travel to them. plus in ghana learning some of the local languages won't be much trouble cause there are lots of people who are really willing to teach you if you're open. not to say they aren't hard because they are but my friends there made it easy to learn.
anywhere you go in west africa you should make a huge effort to learn the local language, kind of sucks to just rely on english or whatever colonial language.

regardless of your academic interests, i'd say study abroad is great unless you're just going to stay inside and watch american movies all day, which some students managed to do in ghana.
