The Seven Top Reasons for Living in a Student Apartment in Athens

Here are the seven best reasons to rent a room in a student apartment in Athens.

1. Living in a student apartment is cheaper than renting your own apartment, so you can get a nicer apartment for less money.

2. Meeting new people. If you're shy or introverted and do not like meeting new people, moving into a student apartment will help you come out of your shell! Living with like-minded people will help you meet new friends... and make memories that will last forever!

3. You can improve your foreign language skills. Practice makes perfect. And spending lots of time together will make you speak a foreign language daily.

4. Learning about various cultures. The most exciting thing about living with people from other countries is learning about many cultures. You can gain a lot of insight into cultural values, food habits, and much more!

5. Living together teaches responsibility. Is this the first time you're living away from home? Then, it's time to learn the art of managing your own house! You'll have to learn how to handle household chores, manage your finances, cook meals, and manage laundry, among many other things! This will teach you responsibility and keep homesickness at bay.

6. You won't be alone all the time. Having someone else living with you means there will always be someone to talk to when you get home from class. It can also help keep loneliness at bay if your partner or best friend isn't around as much as you would like. You might also find that having someone else around will help motivate you to get up and go out more often.

7. You can also split shopping and cooking responsibilities so that another person takes over every day. This way you don't have to cook every day, but you can eat something delicious every day.


So, finally, when all is said and done, there is more than one reason for you to try out student apartment life. If you are not sure whether it's for you or not, don't worry. Just look around and see which of the points above seem the most attractive to you personally.

Good roommates, if appropriately chosen, can be the most significant part of student life in Athens.

You may even meet your future spouse in these places where you invest most of your time studying and socializing with other people.

It could be an excellent investment for the rest of your life!
