hi, currently binge watchin the series - how diverse are lyon & paris?

[@toyinviola]

Very diverse! I felt very comfortable in both cities especially Paris! I think most people find Paris to be diverse!

[@anthonygonsalves9226]

Just for a clarification.Is it MANDATORY to have a blocked account?especially for the cost of living of 7380 euros.If my relatives are financing me,is it possible to show a bank statement of 6 months/1 year?

[@janaeogarro]

Would you ever consider making a video speaking only French?

[@toyinviola]

Yes I’ve thought about it! Maybe when im more comfortable speaking French I will

[@chae432]

I'd it expensive to live and learn there?

[@toyinviola]

No it was relatively affordable! Especially compared to Paris!

[@issygriff1213]

Hey do you have any advice for how to rent an apartment in Lyon for year abroad?

[@toyinviola]

Hey!
So I was fortunate that my university in Lyon actually helped study abroad students find housing so if you are going to Lyon through a school program I highly recommend talking to your go global office or trying to find students who have been abroad. I did have some friends who lived in apartments and they all joined Facebook groups made for people in Lyon looking for roommates/housing so I would recommend that as well. You could also go to the city and stay in an Airbnb for the first couple of weeks and figure it out once your actually in the city but you’d probably have more certainty figuring something out before going. Hope this helps!!
