Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
way more space than the on campus accomodation (you share a _room_ with another person there oftentimes.)
Disadvantage of living off-campus: You do not meet the other exchange students as often
