Hi everyone, happy new year! I'm Gokhan, from Turkey. I'm 23 and I study History. My friend and me will be in Gent on January 20. We're going to stay there for 3 months and we want it to be memorable to the core. I need your advise to find a place. I'm thinking about going premium on this site, but before that maybe you can help me. Our budget is limited to € 300 max. 1 € is equal to ~3 TRY, so we'll be three times poorer than we're now :)) I hope we'll set up a great crowd to hang out. Looking forward to your replies. Bye!

See you!

Hi everyone! I am Stef and I am coming from Spain. I'll be in Gent since September until February and I am studying Translation. I will be living at one of the residences offered by Ugent (I think its name was Canterbury). Is anyone here studying the same as me or living in the same place? It would be great to know someone before I arrive there. By the way there are another 3 classmates who are coming with me and we would be glad to get to know other people as soon as possible. 

Nice to meet you all! See you!

Hey guys! ^^ My name is Bozhana and I'm from Bulgaria and I'm an erasmus student for the second semester. I'm jumping from happiness that I'll be in that amazing country and that I'm about to have such type of experience, I suppose it'll be great but there is the problem with where am I about to live. So I'm looking for a room, flat, studio or something of the kind for about 350€ monthly. If you have any offer please contact me. 
All the Best,
Bozhana (Jane) ^_^

Hello everyone! :)

I am coming to Gent in February 2015 for exchange,I study graphic design, is there anyone going to LUCA School of Arts in ? 

If so, it would be great to get in touch before exchange or perhaps look for accomodation together!

Cheers

Hi Brona,

I am also looking for somewhere to stay!

Kim Schmidt Geschrieben vor 9 Jahren

Hi Brona och Lucy,
I'm going to Sint LUCA as well, to study interior architecture (not sure if I'll be in the same place as you two though, seens it seams as LUCA has two locations in gent (but i find it all quite confusing so I can be wrong, haha)

Lucy Ayliffe Geschrieben vor 9 Jahren

Awesome! We should definietly all meet up!

Barbora Budinská Geschrieben vor 9 Jahren

A big hello to all!
I'm arriving to Gent this February to study Physics on the Faculty of Science (UGent) and I would be more then glad to get in touch with someone beforehand. Doesn't matter wheather you are from the same faculty or not.
I am also still looking for a place to stay and would appreciate to live in the same building, appartment or location as some other erasmus students. I am not even sure if I should be looking for privite rooms or rather university dorms, as in whats more popular among the erasmus students. Looking forward to your response! :)
