youth@zoi.beHOW TO GET TO THE HOSTEL
You can arrive to Brussels by plane. At Brussels airport someone will show you the way to the train. There is a direct train to Bruges every hour, but with the amount of wheelchairs we expect, it is very important you let us know when you will arrive and what kind of assistance you need. In Belgium trains are accessible, but it can be a challenge to make the reservation. This is why we will do this for you.
When you arrive in Bruges city, it is a 2 km walk trough the beautiful city to the hostel. We will come to the railway station to get your bags. Bruges is a middle age city so you will have to cross areas with a lot of cobblestones. But we will provide help if you need it.
TRAVEL GRANTS
OIFE has a very limited number of travel grants that you can apply to (max 100EUR per person).
To apply for travel grant - send an e-mail to
office@oife.org before February 1st.

Please note that this registration isn't valid before you receive an e-mail from us. Therefore: please DON'T book your flight before you receive a confirmation e-mail from the organizers.
