Athens, June 2 2025
Nostus, the digital housing platform designed for international students and digital nomads, is proud to announce its integration into the Erasmus+ App, the official portal of the European Commission for Erasmus+ students. From now on, students heading to Thessaloniki or Athens for their Erasmus+ experience can find their accommodation through the “Accommodation” search function of the Erasmus+ App, or directly via the Nostus website.
This partnership marks a major milestone in enhancing the housing experience for Erasmus+ students in Greece, offering them a seamless, secure, and trusted way to find their new home abroad.
As part of the Erasmus+ App ecosystem, Nostus listings comply with the quality standards set by the European Commission and the HOME² project. Every listed property is physically verified to ensure it meets strict criteria on safety, comfort, and student suitability, effectively protecting students from scams, misleading listings, or unverified landlords.
“We said from the beginning that we want to make the housing experience as smooth and safe as possible and now we’ve made it a reality,” said Kostis Giannidis, CEO of Nostus.
Nostus was founded by former Erasmus+ students and long-time volunteers of the Erasmus Student Network who experienced firsthand the challenges of finding safe and reliable housing abroad. This unique perspective drives the platform’s student-first philosophy and continuous efforts to build trust and transparency into every listing.
Being the first student housing platform in Greece to be featured in the Erasmus+ App, Nostus gains an extra layer of credibility, helping international students book with confidence. Students can now skip the uncertainty and focus on what truly matters: enjoying their mobility experience.
The Erasmus+ App housing feature was developed under the HOME² Project, a collaborative initiative led by Politecnico di Milano with partners such as the Erasmus Student Network, European University Foundation, Universidad de Oviedo, International Union of Property Owners, and HousingAnywhere. While this integration is a major achievement, Nostus remains committed to continuing its work on a policy level, in collaboration with European stakeholders, to improve international student housing in Greece.
