Hola,
Me llamo Cristina, soy colombiana y desde Enero me iré a realizar un curso de francés en la Universidad de Estrasburgo durante 6 meses.  Me gustaría saber si me puedes dar algunos consejos para buscar alojamiento allí.
Te agradezco también cualquier info adicional que puedas brindarme sobre la vida allí y que tener en cuenta antes de mi viaje.
Muchas gracias por tu ayuda,
Saludos,
Cristina

I don't live in Strasbourg, but I have been there many times and love it! It's a really great city. And at Christmastime it's also nice because of the Christmas markets. I think how much you integrate and get to know people party depends on you and your personality... in general it might not be so easy to make friends in France as in other countries, but if you put yourself out there and make an effort I think you shouldn't have a problem. Try to get involved in as many activities as you can.
