I want to know where to find information about Roommates in Calgary?

Question

Hello, I have a question as mentioned in the title.

Soon, I leave for Calgary in Canada from South Korea.

I am a korean 21 male and would like to share a house with 1 or 2 canadians or any foreigners from other country, not from South Korea as I am earge to learn english on a daily basis living with them. I am in South Korea now and will be there on June 7th. I will probably have to stay at lodging or accomodation until I find roommates who welcome me.

But my question is WHERE I CAN FIND INFORMATION ABOUT ROOMMATES IN CALGARY. Please, Do not recommend some sites on the internet like easyroommates.ca or something. Because It may be very dangerous to make a contract with those whom I've never met before face to face. Have a nice day ~

By the way, My e-mail adress is [e-mail]

Answer 1

hmm i was going to suggest some websites but if that doesn't work for you then i would go to the university of calgary and check on their bulletin boards. they often have students looking for roommates. i'm not sure if you'll be a student here but at least there's a bit more safety in finding a roommate from the university. good luck!!

Answer 2

When you get to Canada you will have access to the newspaper in Calgary.  That would  be a good place to start.  Also in Calgary there will most likely be an Association for New Canadians - the university will be able to refer you to them, and they will help you with this.  Best of luck.
