Where do these figures come from?

Experiencias Erasmus en Berlín
Compilation of more than 110 stories from students who have lived in Berlin, with dates ranging from five or six years ago. The vast majority agree on highlighting the enormous multiculturalism, the young atmosphere, and the endless offer of leisure and culture. An important warning is also repeated: finding accommodation is very complicated and requires starting the search months in advance. It is a useful page to get an idea of the real cost of living (some mention between 500 and 700 euros per month) and to confirm that the public transport network perfectly connects the entire city.

Foro Erasmus Berlín
Active forum where students going to Berlin look to meet people before arriving and resolve practical doubts. Most of the recent threads (from this year and the previous one) are to create WhatsApp groups for Spanish students of each academic year or to look for companions to make plans. There are also some questions about professional internships during the summer and doubts about renting rooms, although it focuses more on social contact than on detailed guides.
