Hello all,
I am a French Canadian who will do an exchange in Alicante, Spain. I'll be studying at The Universidad de Alicante, and I am therefore beginning to look at what barrios would be best to live in, so I welcome any suggestions. Here are some information about me and what I am looking for;
I can live alone, or with locals (but not in a family as I wanna keep some freedom) or at least people speaking Spanish. English would be fine too.
I will be in Alicante for about 6 months, to begin with, and I will be arriving mid-august to look for a flat. Speaking of that, is it possible to not have a one year contract? Is there a minimum stay in Spain?
I am looking for something not too far for the University, by walk or a short bus/tram ride. It is ok if I am not in the center, as long as I have access to some amenities and bus/tram.
Concerning my budget, it is hard to tell as I have no idea how much that could cost (I have lived in England and Canada, but never in Spain). Is something around 350 euros feasable, with a double bed, furnished and water/electricity/wifi included?
Thank you very very much for your advices!!
