Several universities in Krakow have Erasmus Student Network (ESN) groups, which are composed of volunteer students who help others solve problems and integrate well into the city. For example, there’s ESN PK Krakow at the University of Technology and the ESN UJ Cracow at Jagiellonian University.
In the ESN Facebook groups, you can see calendars of activities and events they organise, as well as photos from past events. These groups also serve as platforms to solve any doubts you may have and meet other students.
