Hi, my name is Eva. I am Spanish, I have been living in England for the last 3 years and I work as an environmental engineer in Manchester.

Im moving up to Edinburgh in 2 weeks and I will start looking for accommodation then, as I only have 2 weeks hotel paid by my company. I would be looking for a central location. Perhaps you'd know someone that is looking for a flatmate or have a studio to rent?

I hope I can join your Meetups once I'm already there.

Thanks and see you soon

Eva

Hi Eva

I'm sure people will let you know of any flats available. gumtree.com is also a great place to try for accommodation.

I look forward to meeting you in a couple of weeks!

Best

Hola Eva,

Sorry, I did have a room for rent but I rented it out a week ago. Well maybe it will help, here are some web sites which advertise rooms and flats for rent:

http://www.clickflats...
http://www.profession...
http://www.list.co.uk...
http://www.lettingweb...
http://www.espc.com/E...
http://edinburgh.free...
http://www.accommodat...
http://edinburgh.gumt...
http://uk.easyroommat... (not free)
http://www1.flatmatec... (not free)

Also another place to look is in the shop called 'Real Food' on Broughton Street - there is a noticeboard inside (next to the fridge) with many adverts for rooms to rent. There is also a noticeboard at the Elephant House (Harry Potter) Cafe on George IV Bridge in town. The address of Real Food:
http://www.google.co....
and of Elephant Cafe: http://www.elephant-h...

And finally, the local newspaper (Evening News) has rooms and flatshare adverts every Tuesday (or is it Thursday?) - it comes out about noon...

Cheers,

Mark
