“Une formation par apprentissage, un bon moyen de gagner en expérience professionnelle”
CLARVIE-EDOUARD Y
France, Other courses
Engineering, Computer, 2021
OverallJ'ai commencé mes études par un DUT en génie électrique et informatique industrielle GEII. Cette formation je l'ai fait par apprentissage et cela était très intéressant pour moi de connaitre le monde de l'entreprise et mettre en pratique tout ce que j'ai appris. Je continue toujours mes études en apprentissage pour préparer un diplôme d'ingénieur en informatique industrielle chez Aro welding technologies.

Personal spending habits
The accommodation is so cheap! Apply for the CAF as with it I paid just €100 per month! I pay around €500 per month in the UK for similar accommodation.
Most things are cheaper in France than in the UK...

Personal comments
One warning about Sanitas - you can't get an internet connection in your room. You can in Europa, but you have to go to France Telecom to set it up yourself.
Apply for the CAF - you save around 1/3 of your rent.
Look for formules at restaurants. They're the best way to get a two or three course meal.

Personal comments
The Pale is the best Erasmus bar in Tours. It's an Irish Pub so you can mix with Anglophones and Francophones at the same time. Check it out on Rue Colbert!
Café Chaud is legendary. Pyms is a trek away from the town centre, but is the only big night club (it's close to Sanitas).
Opposite Pyms is Le Corsaire. Here you have a pirate themed cocktail and ice-cream bar. BEST COCKTAILS DU MONDE!
In the Summer you should check out Tutti Gusti on Place Plumereau.
