Information from AMBergh: (3)
I feel like I didn't understand the relationship between Amberg and AALIM, and thought they were employees of Amberg, so it made the communication a little confusing
Meeting at the airport, bus or railway station: (3)
Reception at the university: (5)
Everyone was extremely friendly and welcoming, although I didn't realize how difficult it would be starting without any background in Arabic or French.
Studies: (5)
The education was great, although I wish there had been other students to share it with. But my teachers were wonderful and patient with me. They were always ready to explain and try new ways to get me to understand what was going on.

Favourite night club/restaurant/pub:
We didn't go out a ton, since our family cooked such good food, but I had the best French pastries ever at a stylish cafe in Ifran, and I have never tasted anything like it. I don't remember what it was called though. And I really loved drinking hot chocolate on the terrace overlooking the Place Hedim, really good chocolate with a great view.
What would you like to improve?
Maybe I am just bad at reading, but I didn't know what textbooks I would need for my course until I was already in country and it was too late to buy them. And only the name of the textbooks was provided, where an author or ISBN number would have been really helpful. But I really loved all the pictures and the professional feel of the website.
