Hello expat-blogers! :) I'm going to study within the Erasmus program in Paris in the end of September 2012 and I have problems to find a furnished accommodation to rent. Could someone of you help me to find something or rent me a room or flat? ...
You have a couple months, I actually find Craigslist isn't a bad place to search if you have at least 3 or 4 weeks before you need the place. (Just be careful of listings that sound too good to be true, because probably they are -- a lot of "500 ... Read More
