I’m thinking of spending a year in Wurzberg intensively studying the German language and other subjects. I have 2 reasons for wanting to do this other than it would be great to study a year abroad.
1. Germans are about the coolest people I’ve met in my travels and I love the country.
2. I have friends in Munich that I would like to be able to communicate better with even though their english is good.

So, I have 2 questions.
1. What is Wurzburg like as far as a place to live in for a year?
2. Even if I learn to speak German well, will the dilect my friends speak in Bavaria complicate conversation much?

I know it would be better to just go to a school in Munich for what I want, but my university offers a very inexpensive program in Wurzburg and I don’t yet know if I could afford to study in Munich.
