Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? I lived with local people and it is so much better for learning the local language. Also it is better for going out in Lyon because the campus accommodation is very far away from lyon centre and a nightmare to get back to at night
Personal comments:
My advice is to try and live with local people. Not only will your language improve enormously but it means you get a better insight into life in Lyon and the local culture
