I'm thinking of taking 5... 15 credits

but I heard the school is demanding :(

I can handle the load... without a problem... but I want to have fun too.

I did the minimum of 12 credits when I went abroad (the US). Do the minimum so you have more time to have fun and enjoy your experience.

I only took 2 classes but that was only over 1 month in the summer.

We had classes 5 hours a day but the weekends were fun. We would travel to a lot of places.

I think I came back with something like 32 credits (full year). I had the luxury of merely transferring credits and not grades so as long as I got a "C", I got the same credit. ;)

If I was going abroad, I'd probably take the minimum number of required classes. I can take classes when I get back, I only have a limited time to explore a different culture. I'd want to spend more time experiencing the country I was visiting.
