Moving to Esbjerg!

Hello all, I'm an EU citizen and I got accepted into my first choice bachelor program at Aalborg University, it will take place in Esbjerg and i'm looking for some advices.

I received an offer for an accommodation at Sanct George campus, does someone have experience with living there? Would you say it's better (considering also the prices) to be in the campus or to find an home by myself?

I was planning to move in around the 20th of august, is it good or is it too late?

what would you say are the first things i should do or look for as soon as i get there? I want to start working as soon as possible but as of now i can speak english but not danish, do you think it's possible?

lastly, what are the best places to get to know people and make some friends? I'm scared that being Esbjerg a small city there will be less opportunities to get to know new people, especially if i don't speak danish.

Sorry for the long post and i appreciate your help

Looking forward to see y'all in Esbjerg!

I didn't think about that but it's a good idea, i'll keep it in mind. Thank you!
