  • erasmusu.com

    Experiencias Erasmus Múnich

    It collects dozens of testimonials from Spanish and foreign university students who completed their stay in the Bavarian capital between 2016 and 2024. The accounts consistently highlight the exceptional quality of life, large parks such as the Englischer Garten, safety, and proximity to the Alps. However, they all strongly warn about the extremely high cost of living, describing Munich as the most expensive city in Germany, with room rentals in shared apartments (WG) usually exceeding 600 or 800 euros per month. Warnings about the extreme difficulty of finding housing and bureaucratic slowness are repeated. The website does not explain the requirements of the municipal registry (Anmeldung) or the broadcasting fee.

    Foro Erasmus Múnich, Alemania | Erasmusu.com

    A community with annual discussion threads covering continuous cohorts from 2017 to the 2025/2026 academic year. The participants are mostly Spanish students attending centers such as LMU or TUM who are looking to meet classmates before traveling, form WhatsApp groups, and find solutions to the housing shortage. There are abundant inquiries about frequent scams on rental property portals and temporary sublet offers (Zwischenmiete). It is valuable for getting a feel for the reality of the rental market and supporting each other, although official administrative procedures do not receive detailed technical answers.
