Making international mobility more human
We're building the most trusted platform for Erasmus and international student accommodation across Europe. Every host verified. Every payment protected. Every student supported.
Before being founders, we were international students ourselves
France, Poland, Spain, Greece, Germany. Different countries, different universities, different experiences, but always the same problems.
Searching for accommodation abroad often meant spending weeks between anxiety, unanswered messages, unclear contracts, and fear of scams.
We experienced firsthand what it feels like to move to another country without knowing if the room you booked actually exists, if the apartment matches the pictures, or if someone will help you once you arrive.
Those experiences are what brought us together and inspired the creation of Erasmus Student Housing.
Today, thousands of international students rely on Erasmus Student Housing to find verified accommodation abroad with direct support from real people.
Our team stays in direct contact with students on WhatsApp, helping them book safely and confidently abroad.
Our mission
To help international students move abroad with greater peace of mind.
Verified Hosts & Listings
We collaborate with verified hosts, agencies, and professional partners, while manually reviewing accommodation details and listings before publication whenever possible.
Payment Protection
100% secure transactions with full payment protection. Your money is safe until move-in day. If something doesn't match, you get a full refund.
Multilingual Assistance
Our team stays available through different communication channels to support students before, during, and after the booking process. Real people, real support, not just automated replies.
Our values
Student-First
Every decision we make starts from one simple question: "What would we have needed ourselves as international students?".
Erasmus Student Housing was built around the real needs, fears, and expectations of people moving abroad for the first time. Our goal is to simplify a process that is often stressful and confusing for students arriving in a new country.
Human Support
Behind every booking, there is a real person starting a new chapter abroad, often far from home, family, and comfort zones.
International mobility is not just a transaction, and we know it: it is a life experience, and Erasmus Student Housing believes students should never feel alone while going through it.
Built by Erasmus Students, for Erasmus Students
Erasmus Student Housing was not created in a boardroom or designed only around numbers and transactions, but from lived experiences across Europe.
That is what brought our founders together and inspired them to create a platform focused not only on housing, but on trust, support, and community for international students.
Our founders
We're a diverse team of former Erasmus students, tech enthusiasts, and housing experts passionate about making international student accommodation safe and accessible.

What Erasmus meant to us
Sometimes, moving abroad for a few months can change the entire direction of your life.
Not only because of the places you see, but because of the person you become along the way.
Erasmus means learning how to start over in a new city, speak different languages, meet people from all over the world, and discover parts of yourself you never knew before.
It means friendships that survive distance and years, train rides, shared apartments, missed flights, cultural shocks, laughter, freedom, and memories that stay with you forever.
For many people, it becomes the moment they grow the most.
The moment they become more independent, more open-minded, more confident, and more aware of the world around them.
And often, without realizing it at the time, it opens doors that will shape the rest of their lives: new careers, international opportunities, relationships, ideas, and dreams they would have never imagined before leaving home.
Because after an experience abroad, many people return home different.
And sometimes, they never really stop exploring again.
