Universidad Austral,
🇦🇷 Exchange in Argentina, Jan 2024
🏠 Housing
I lived in Casa Guatemala a.k.a. “Maison Abbey” (from Ignacio) — big ass house with 18 private rooms, shared kitchen, rooftop, common areas… real community vibes. Honestly 10/10 if you're down to live with people. Super secure, good location, solid price (~430 USD/month). But fair warning: a lot of French 😅 so not the best if you're trying to learn Spanish.
🚗 Getting to Campus
Palermo to Austral = like 30–40 min depending on traffic. Uber or bus, both worked fine.
✈️ Travel Life
Bro. I did everything: Salta, Iguazu, Mendoza, Cordoba, Patagonia. Then crossed borders to Rio, Peru, Chile, Colombia. Backpacker dream unlocked. My advice? Book early and plan around cheap flights.
🎉 Social Life
Living with 18 people means instant crew. BBQs, nights out, spontaneous trips. No way you're lonely. Just don’t expect much sleep.
📚 Classes
Super chill. Pick smart — courses are like 1st-year level. Everyone validates. Just plan your schedule to have long weekends (stack Mon/Tues classes).

Photos of houses online lie a lot. Always get alumni contacts (that’s how I found Ignacio!).

UADE
🇦🇷 Exchange in Argentina, Feb 2024
🏠 Housing
I stayed at one of Ignacio’s casas — can’t remember if it was Abbey or Colonial but whatever, it was SO good. Big house, every room had a private bathroom, big rooftop, chill zone. Only downside: zero sound isolation lol. If you can, pick a room far from the entrance and street. I paid 400 USD/month.
🚗 Getting to Campus
About 40 minutes by bus from Palermo to UADE. Totally manageable. Just podcast it out.
✈️ Travel Life
Did all the classics: Patagonia, Salta, Mendoza. My tip? Book your trips from the first week or it’ll never happen.
🎉 Social Life
Top tier. The house was always buzzing. We partied, cooked, did random midnight karaoke — exchange magic.
📚 Classes
No stress. Everything went smooth. Just be smart with your planning and register early.

If you’re eyeing Ignacio’s casas, book 3-4 months in advance. They go FAST.

UADE
🇦🇷 Exchange in Argentina, March 2024
🏠 Housing
I found my spot through Clément (French agent in BA) and stayed in what everyone called “the best exchange house in the city” — managed by Ignacio. We were 8 in the house, it was a total vibe. Paid 350€/month. Best part? EVERY French person we met ended up coming to our place to chill.
🚗 Getting to Campus
A bit far (Palermo > UADE) but worth it. I’d rather do 40 mins in a bus than live somewhere dead.
✈️ Travel Life
Whole Argentina. Salta, Patagonia, Mendoza. Even dipped into Uruguay. It was non-stop.
🎉 Social Life
Next level. The house was basically the party HQ. If you’re not into social living, this ain’t for you.
📚 Classes
Everything but RH. The rest is fine. Just validate and go vibe.
🦙 Other
No regrets. Palermo > everything else.

Universidad de Belgrano
🇦🇷 Exchange in Argentina, Jan 2024
🏠 Housing
Booked through The BA Plan, ended up in a massive house with a garden in Palermo Soho. Rent was 500 USD/month. Expensive? Yeah. Worth it? Also yeah. Perfect mix of party and chill. Met people from everywhere. Bonus: I learned Spanish like crazy just by talking with the other housemates.
🚗 Getting to Campus
25 mins by bus. No big deal.
✈️ Travel Life
Did Salta (north + south loops), El Chaltén in Patagonia… rent a car with friends. It’s cheaper and you get more freedom.
🎉 Social Life
If you’re in a student house, you’ve already won. Trips, nights out, dinners — it’s like exchange on steroids.
📚 Classes
Picked easy stuff and built my schedule to be free Wed-Sun. Life hack.
🦙 Other
Book early and message people who’ve done it before. Helped me avoid so many scams.

🇦🇷 Exchange in Argentina, Feb 2024
🏠 Housing
Did an Airbnb in San Telmo/Montserrat — super close to UADE and quieter than Palermo. I loved it. 400€/month. Living in a coloc (shared flat) was honestly the best move. No way I’d do this solo.
🚗 Getting to Campus
I was like 10 minutes away walking. Dream.
✈️ Travel Life
Top 3: Iguazú, Perito Moreno, Bolivia. Just go wild with the travels — this country’s built for it.
🎉 Social Life
Bars in San Telmo, parties in Palermo. Just follow the WhatsApp group, go with the flow, and never say no.
📚 Classes
Take what excites you. If you speak Spanish, go for Spanish classes — you’ll improve so much faster. And stack classes early in the week = freedom.

Parillas are life. Don’t skip meals. Don’t skip trips. Don’t wait.
