Housing
Type of housing: With a family
Arranged by: Independently - I had no other choice
If returning, I would choose: With a family
Why?
It's nicer, you don't feel so alone, so out of place. You learn much more and not just the language but the habits and cultural differences.

Personal comments
It's really dificult to find rooms in Munich. I was lucky enough to find a room in Panserwiese but i didnt liked very much. It's far from the centre and people are a too distant from one another - not like in the movies!

Personal comments
No surprises. Coock our own food and it comes out much cheaper than eating out all the time. Go out on the weekends. You can eat at the Mensa if you can´t cook yourself. The food costs 3-4,5 DM, but the environment there isn´t very atractive.
