Overall
I wish I had known...
actually I knew that I would ave been placed in a very dangerous and uncomfortable place, but if I only I had known it in june and not in september, maybe I would have found a flat near the university and I would have gone out more frequently...

Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
