At home I was living with my parents, so I didn't pay for housing issues. And finally, once in Belgium one of the great opportunities is discovering the surroundings so we tried to make the most of our stay.

The Nightlife is more expensive than Spain because of the drinks and overall the taxis. But for travel i recognice that is easier and cheaper than Spain overall if you are travelling by train.

REVIEWS BY INTERNS AT Université Catholique de Louvain
ABOUT
The Université catholique de Louvain was established on December 9, 1425, by a papal bull issued by Pope Martin V. The University split along language lines as a result of political turmoil in the late 1960's. A law recognizing separate Flemish-speaking and French-speaking universities was passed in 1970. The
former remained in Louvain while the latter moved to a new location on the outskirts of Ottignies. This new campus became the town of Louvain-la-Neuve.
Between 1972 and 1979, nine faculties (schools) gradually moved to Louvain-la-Neuve. The Faculty of Medicine chose to move to Brussels (Woluwe-Saint-Lambert), in an area now known as « Louvain-en-Woluwe ».
