Alternatives

• Students who do not get reimbursed for their travel expenses, can also check with the local organizers to see if they have some crash space available. For GIST 4, please send an email to karen.declercq@ugent.be. 

• Couchsurfing: If you prefer staying with local people to a hotel and get the know the city from a different perspective, it is for you. It's free, but hosts always appreciate a token of your gratitude, such as specialities from your country or breakfast in the morning.
