“When I arrived in Lyon, I had no idea how the French housing system worked. Inflexyon explained everything to me from the very beginning and gave me the opportunity to stay in a CROUS residence. I got a single room in the “Arches d’Agrippa” residence, which is located in a very nice neighborhood. The studio has all the basic facilities, an international atmosphere, and a very reasonable price. The best part was that Inflexyon supported me throughout the entire administrative process and gave me advice for my stay. Thanks to them, I was able to focus on improving my French from day one.”

They taught me a lot about French culture, and in the evenings we had dinner together while speaking French. Thanks to Inflexyon’s support in choosing the family and handling all the arrangements, I had a full immersion experience. My French improved much faster than I expected.”
