How to get from Airport to the Student´s Residence
+Basically you have two options, either take a taxi, or a bus.
+- By taxi:
+Ask the driver to get you to the "e;Residencia universitaria Jimenez Fraud"e; at the "e;Plaza de José Bergamín"e; . Note that there are different university residences, so you should specify which one you're going to. A taxi can take around 20/28 euros for that travel.
+
+
+- By bus:
+Buses are much cheaper but much slower too. There's one bus going to the airport, so you'll have to take it in order to get you to the city and then take another bus that would get you to the residence.
+It would go as follows: Take the bus number 19 (you'll take it at the "e;Aeropuerto - Llegadas"e; stop, at the bottom-left corner of that map) and leave it either at the "e;Avda de Velazquez- Avda. de Moliere"e; stop, "e;Avda. de Velazquez - Los Guindos"e;, "e;Avda. de Velazquez - La Paz"e;, "e;Avda. de Velázquez - Vistafranca"e; or in the "e;Avda. de Velazquez - El Torcal"e; bus stop . Bus number 19 has all those bus stops in common with bus number 31 which is the one you should take next. In the map for the itinerary of bus number 31, go to the upper-left corner, there you'll see Plaza Jose Bergamin, which is where the university residence is, you'll recognize the plaza/square because there's a very big fountain in the middle. The bus will arrive upwards and then continue going to the right (according to that map), so you sho
uld leave the bus in the stop named: "e;Almogía - C.P. R. León"e; or in the "e;Cómpeta - Plaza de J. Bergamín"e;

How to get from aKademy location to the Student's Residence
-Only a 10 minutes walk!
+The main options are either walking or taking a taxi. There's no bus directly going to the university from the residence, but you may want to take bus number 20 since you have to walk less in order to get to that bus stop.
+The akademy-team will also rent a car which will do a few trips each day in the morning and evenings, to get people from/to the university and the residence.
+
+Open the map of bus number 20. In the top left corner, the white trapezoid below the text "Louis Pasteur" is the Faculty of Computer Science (the ETSI Informática). If you go to the right and a bit upwards, you can see the Plaza José Bergamín, which is where the residence is. So to get from the akademy location there, you just have to walk through the Boulevar Louis Pasteur (leaving all the faculties of the university at your sides) until the end of the boulevar, then turn left and walk a few meters until you reach a square with some columns in bright colours (painted in the map with a blue center), then turn right and pass over a bridge arriving then to the residence.
+
+
+
+Another option is to take the bus number 20 in the stop marked as "e;Louis Pasteur"e; and leave it at the stop "e;Plaza de Manuel Azaña"e;. From there, you can go walking to the residence going first until the street "e;Almogía"e; and then following that street until the "e;Plaza Jose Bergamín"e;.

Travel
- By car:
- Driving a car in Andalucia or Spain is very similar to driving in other European countries. The roads are reasonably well maintained. The following points should serve as a guide. You will need a good map. Michellin 446 of Southern Spain is the best.
