What are living situations like abroad?
They vary greatly from country to country and city to city. We recommend talking to as many people as possible who have been to the place you are going prior to setting up your living arrangement, in order to decide what will work best for you. In many cases, dorm living is the most convenient and also the best way to meet people. On the other hand, living with a family is a great way to learn about the culture and language of the country you are staying.
