Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - I had no other choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
It allows me to be independent and to stay with other people as well in the same time. This allows me to live in Barcelona, cause the university is outside the town
