Discover the benefits of coliving for international students and how it eases their transition to a successful student life.
#1 Finding accommodation quickly
More often than not, it's difficult to find accommodation quickly, especially if you're a student spending a semester abroad. Coliving makes it easier to find accommodation, with a more flexible selection policy than traditional real estate agencies. At Sharies, you can apply for an apartment and move in within 24 hours.
#2 Creating social links
When they arrive in a new country, international students can feel isolated and find it hard to make friends. Coliving promotes social bonding by providing a community environment where students can meet other residents with similar interests and experiences. This facilitates social integration and creates lasting friendships.

#3 Support and mutual aid
Coliving creates an atmosphere of mutual aid and support between residents. Students can rely on their roommates for advice, information and practical help when facing challenges related to their student life or adapting to a new country.
This solidarity offers a valuable sense of security and support. Similarly, each Sharies residence has a Residence Manager who accompanies residents throughout their stay.
#4 Turnkey housing
Coliving spaces are equipped with practical amenities such as a shared kitchen, laundry facilities, relaxation and sports areas. This facilitates the daily lives of international students by offering them practical facilities within their accommodation. In addition, Sharies housing offers services such as weekly housekeeping, high-speed Internet access and monthly events, adding further comfort and convenience.
#5 Cross-cultural learning opportunities
