accomodation

where will you live

Although YFU collaborates with host families for its exchange students, our ESC volunteers are housed in two rooms within a student dormitory situated in the center of Mechelen. This location is conveniently close to our office, a train station, and numerous shops and bars, all nestled in the historic heart of the city.

In these accommodations, you will have your own room but will share a kitchen and bathroom with other residents. It will be necessary to coordinate and agree upon arrangements with your fellow residents, many of whom are international students enrolled at Thomas More University of Applied Sciences. Additionally, the dormitory is overseen by a superintendent, who will introduce themselves and serve as your point of contact in case any issues arise.

Your room will be provided with clean sheets, towels, and bedding. The kitchen is equipped with a variety of utensils. If you require anything else, we offer a small budget for enhancing your quality of life.
