take into consideration that you will need much time to travel around and see everything you want. Greece has so much to offer concerning travelling! Go to the islands in summer and go skiing in winter!

Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
There are no real student residences or dormitories in Athens, therefore there is no other possibility than renting an appartment with some people.

Personal comments
Maybe you should not book your appartment via the university. Consider looking for one yourself (buy Athens News and look in the adds), but keep in mind that you don't have the "key on the door" situation then...
I personally know some people who looked for accommodation themselves, and they were able to find a really good appartment in a good area for 400 euro per month (two big rooms, fully equiped kitchen,...) Main problem with the appartments of the university is the cockeroach problem and tricky owners..

Athens is a crowded city, so you have street noise everywhere. Nevertheless, this is definitely not a reason not to come here!
