Housing in Munich
Our local committee rents three houses in Munich which host all our incomers. Every incomer gets her own room, while bathroom and kitchen are shared with other flatmates. One of the main advantages of living in a shared flat is that you as an incomer will instantly get to meet new people and make connections.
Our kitchens are equipped with everything, so you do not have to bring anything for cooking. Besides your personal items, do not forget to bring your own bedsheets and your most beloved teddy-bear!

What did you enjoy most in Munich?
The best thing [about Munich] was the people, no matter how drunk or not you are.
My IAESTE internship in Munich has so far been one of the best experiences of my life. I got to meet many people from all over the world, travel Europe for the first time, and gain valuable experience which has already boosted my career more than I could imagine.
I like Munich, because it is a mix of international city and German culture.
