Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? I enjoyed living in an appartment because I had the opportunity to have two American roommates and have my privacy (I had my own room and bathroom)
Personal comments:
I think it would have been really convenient to live on campus too because you are close to everything. As I said I liked my apartment complex and its location.
