Logement

Type de logement: Appartement/maison

Organisé par: Indépendant - seul choix possible

Si j'y retournais je choisirais: Appartement/maison

Pourquoi?

The housing company Duwo will help foreign students with short stay housing and its the easiest way to find an apartment. IF you want to look for your own apartment you should be aware about the housing shortage in Amsterdam which has brought up the prices and down the space. Start looking at least 3 months in advance - especially during the summer

Commentaire personnel

I lived at Poeldijkstraat which is in the Oud zoud, close to the biggest central park - Vondelpark. The apartments are quite expensive compared to Sweden, but the location makes it worth it. Its not too far away from the school, and if you take the bike you will reach the city within 15 min.

Dépenses habituelles

I spen more on the telephone, because I only had a mobile phone so calling abroad became more expensive. I spend more on the nightlife not because it is more expensive but because I went out much more. On food and travelling I spend less because it was cheaper in Holland than in Sweden.

Commentaire personnel

If you need furniture or household items go around the city, beacsue in Holland they have a wounderful recycling tradition, that everyone leaves their things outside on the street, once a week, so who ever needs anything can take it before the garbage men do! Some things are a real catch!

Commentaire personnel

I already studied Dutch 2 years at the FH Dortmund, before I came to Amsterdam. So I already had a good knowledge. Now the problem is that the language at the HES is English. Of course, I decided for a few courses in Dutch to improve my Dutch skills. But I have to mention that it is sometimes very disappointing when you want to talk in Dutch. A lot of people here in Amsterdam think it is very polite to answer in German. So you have to convince them that you want to talk in Dutch!

Amsterdam is one of the most beautiful cities on this planet. You must visit the festivals if you will be there in the summer time. Amsterdam´s centre is not very big-that is why a bike is a very good way to save travel expenses. Besides everyone goes by bike in Amsterdam-it`s easy to get one there.

There are 3 buildings for the exchange students, two that are quite old and one brand new which is closer to the new school building. The two old ones can some times be quite disappointing but it is still okay to live there.
