Bamberg is my home town. It’s a cozy city with a quite intimate city center. It offers lots of chic places since the town has a quite good economy. On the other side our liberal youth scene is constantly growing. The uni is quite big so there are many young people. Philosophy is one of the main faculties so you meet a lot of people with an interesting mind set! There are frequent raves and concerts for the people who are interested in music.
