It is one of the most common accommodations in Australia. Staying in a shared flat is a good idea if you want to enjoy total independence and come and go whenever you want without accountability to anyone. Further, It allows you to live in the neighborhood that you most want in your city to be close to work or see the beach from the window of your room.
In most cities it is quite easy to find rooms in flats or shared houses; Australia is a country with a lot of mobility in which people from all over the world make study or work stays in a timely manner. Therefore, you should not have much difficulty renting a room for a few months. Further, The price usually includes other expenses or “bills” such as water, electricity or internet.
An own room inside a house shared with other partners. That is, the room is yours and only yours, but the rest of the rooms are common (the living room, the kitchen, the bathrooms…)
A room shared with another person, who will sleep with you in the same room as you.

The best thing about living in a student residence is that you will live with people like you and from all over the world, and you will always have a flat in the sleeve with a lot of colleagues willing to sign up for a bombing.
In addition, living in a residence is quite comfortable because you forget things like thinking about what you are going to eat today and having to get down to work or cleaning the dust in your room. This can be an advantage for you or not, everything will depend as always on your priorities.
Living with an Australian family is a great option if you want to learn English at the speed of light and immerse yourself 100% in the local culture. In au pair type jobs you can stay for free in exchange for taking care of the children in the house for a few hours, and also receive a salary for your expenses.
The "but" of family homes is that they are not usually very central and you may be a little far from school, but it's all about seeing it and assessing your priorities.
The sooner the better, because that way you will avoid getting a surprise if you look again in a while and prices have risen. Let our Integration Coordinator I will advise you and give you a cable: it will help you throughout the process and make the backpacker reservation for you on the dates you choose. It is a free service made in Dingoos!
Who said weeks? Between 7 and 10 days should be more than enough. While you are staying in the backpacker, from Dingoos we will give you the necessary tips to find your accommodation as soon as possible. In addition, you have the department of Student Service at your disposal for any questions that may arise.
Maybe, you can, but we always recommend looking for shared accommodation once you're here so you have a broader view of how things work in Australia.
Of course yes, it is a free service that we offer to all our students and work & holidays to help them find a place where they feel at home. Like all the services we offer 🙂
In reality, more than the place it will depend on the people with whom you live in that place: if from the day you stay with people with whom you are forced to speak in English, you will learn faster than if you enter a house in the That all your compis are Spanish speakers.
