Looking to share an apartment in Bogota

Hi everyone,

I'm moving to Bogota on August 12th and will be looking for a room to rent, preferably in a shared flat with other young people. I'm going to be teaching English and will probably be staying until January. How does one exactly going about looking for this type of accomodation? I have had almost no luck on PBH or other sites - I need something more economical than what the various companies that have posted on here offering furnished rooms have shown. I'd really appreciate any help!

Thanks!

Elizabeth

The best approach is to stay in a hostel the first few weeks, while you look at hostel notice boards and ask around. It's much easier to find something on the spot than from a distance beforehand.

Good luck!

how much are you willing to pay per month. My wife and I may be renting an apt with an extra room or 2 this month.
