Accomodation Possibilities?

I was looking at my university magazine when I found a little announce on accommodation in Paris!

Even better, the guy who is organising it is a PhD student here who WENT to the uni in Paris that I want to go to! Fricking amazing.

I love good co-incidences.

Just sent him an email, talking about how I'm also a staff member, blah blah blah, TELL ME ABOUT IT!

I've also just looked at the website and it gives prices. Exxy, but probably easier than going through all the french paperwork, which exists because this is France.

A flat of 25m^2 is 705.30 € for a month's rent as far as I can tell.

At the moment that equals (according to Google) = $960.27

WHY IS EVERYTHING SO EXPENSIVE!

For Mid-August to end of January = 5.5 months.

Total Rent: $960.27 x 5.5 = $5281.49

Lucky I have about $11,000 saved up already!

Hopefully the exchange rate will change in my favour.

Ok so if return flights are $2000 to Paris...then I have 11,000-5,281.49-2,000=$3,718.51.

Hmm so that only means I have $676.09/month.

I'd better save up more then...
