Erasmus Experience in Irakleion, Greece by Massimiliano

How long is the scholarship? How much money do you receive to help you with living costs?

I receive only 230€ for month and it's not enough to live here.

The food is not bad and I come from Italy ;)

Did it cost you to find your accommodation in Irakleion?

It's not easy to find a nice accommodation here

How much does it cost to live in Irakleion?

Around 400€ for month, it depends how much you spend for the rent

What's the easiest or most economical way to travel to Irakleion from your city?

The easiest is by flight but it's not really cheap.

Where would you recommend to go on a night out in Irakleion?

Stevia Club, Take Five, Firi Firi, The Loft...

Is there any other advice that you could give to students going to Irakleion in the future?

For me Heraklion is (maybe) the worst city that I've seen in Crete, but the island is beautiful so come here and you will have a lot of fun. I don't know how is Chania, it could be better than Heraklion.
