I'll be studying in Dresden next year and im wondering what accomodation would be best for a 21 year old. Should I look into student housing or just get an apartment? And what areas should i be looking at if i am mainly studying languages - id love to be within 5 km of my main campus but also in a fairly fun, safe area. Also, if any past erasmus students have advice, how did you make sure to get placed with other erasmus students or students your own age? Any help would be so appreciated :) Danke schön
