Why did you choose to go to Maribor, Slovenia?

Everyone thinks that Slovenia is a small country, not very developed, where there is nothing to do, but it is not the truth. And I chose this country to discover the surprises it could reserve for us. I wanted to avoid doing like everyone else, to go to the popular countries in Erasmus.

Also, I was told that life there was not expensive, what better way to experience the Erasmus experience without breaking the bank!

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

I stay in Maribor during the full year! And I receive 1300€ for the year.

It was quite complicated to find an accommodation, but we found a studio for cheap and central (195€ for two persons).

How much does it cost to live in Maribor?
