Student exchange

Hi!

I'm very grateful 4 this kind of discussions.
I have question for those who know something about students exchange, I will come to Bogota in July, and I dont know where I will stay, I mean lodging.. I am from Europe and coming on Universidad nacional de colombia. where are they put all those people who are not from bogota, but studing in it., and where are 'we' staying (exchange students)

hehe, that's it for now.
i'm very happy about visiting your country

Bogota Well, you better start finding a place to stay in Bogota, they closed the student´s houses a few years ago so you have to find a place to stay while you´re in Bogota.

yes, they said that lodging will be included, but only that, and price that I need to give for it. and food also, for food, here we have public restoraunts for students.. I dont know how that works there?

I wanna know what I will get. is it some flat or somekind of appartman, or I will be in some student's house, as we have here.

UNAL I guess they have arrangements with people who rent houses / flats for students.
There are no "student restaurants". There are small fast food restaurants / cafeterias inside the university campus but you have to pay for everything.
