Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - I had no other choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
I'd choose the same, because living with other host country's students helps to improve the language and the knowlodge about the host country's costums.

Personal comments
As I had to search my accomodation for myself, I could choose among various possibilities. In comparison to Germany the costs are considerably lower. I was disappointed by the help offered by the university, because they could only facilitate an incomplete list, written in Valenciano, the second official language of the Comunidad Valenciana.

Personal comments
Depending on where you buy, products are more or less affordable. The best option to buy is Mercadona or, if you require more variety, Carrefour o Alcampo, but they are a bit more expensive. If you live in a shared appartment, watch out that all pay the same, to prevent that they make you pay more. To open a bank account you have to possess a Número de identificación del extranjero (NIE), to be gotten in the police office (Ronda Magdalena). In certain banks (e.g. Bancaja), the card they give you incorporates the Carnet Jove (paying a bit extra). Having it, you pay less for the cinema and the train, e.g. The train is cheaper (- 20%) if you acquire ida y vuelta.

Get your spanish up and running a little bit. Drop by at the tourist office after coming here. Dont expect any office to be open between 2 PM and 5 PM, because they have long lunch break (known as siesta).
