Ciao Federico!
Io sono di Barcellona ma questo hanno ho fatto un Erasmus a Roma, studiando Storia dell' Arte a la Sapienza, da settembre 2011 a febraio 2012. È stato fantastico! Se ci vediamo a Leiden vedrai come studiare a l'estero è une delle cose piu belle che si può fare!
Io mi sono laureta a febbraio ma adesso voglio fare un Master a Leiden. Non è ancora sicuro perche sto aspettando che mi dicono se mi acettano o no... Asperiamo di si! E debo fare anche l'esame d'inglese... Sarebbe bello incontraci lì, così possiamo fare intercambio italiano-spagnolo!
Sai gia come fare per trovare casa/residenza? Io ho cheisto a l'università di aiutarmi, ma non mi hanno detto ancora niente.
Ci sentiamo!
ciaoooo

Hi Paula :)
I'll be studying at Leiden too, doing an exchange with my university (sydney) .. I'll most likely be doing Psychology and Anthropology subjects.
I have no idea which housing is the best.. i've been contemplating which ones to put as my preferences...
Kaarsenmakersstraat and Herengracht look nice.

Labas Ugne,
I'm also looking for the accomodation. I suggest you (if you have facebook) the group "LEIDEN HOUSING". A lot of guys share their offers and you can choose. :)
I also found another website, called www.stichtingroofs.nl, and you need to register.
Hope to be helpful! Iki!

Hi Paula, I have applied for a room through that website too :)
I also applied for "Hugo de groostraat" - alongside "Kaarsenmakersstraat" and "Herengracht". So I might end up living in the same residence as you! :)
When are you guys arriving in Leiden?
