Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why?
It was easier to get into the Irish culture as we were living with Irish people. As well there were people from other countries so we could share experiences with them. Living with other students let us concentrate in our carrers.
