Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - I had no other choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? It is important for me to have my own space to relax and enjoy my privacy
Personal comments:
the ost university provided a list with houses that we could choose from ,but they where in rather bad shape and not good situated.So the erasmus students had to work out the problem on their own
