Hi everybody!=))
I`m going to Saarbruecken, beginning August for my internship. I`ll live in Saarbruecken-Scheidt, actually, and the problem is I don`t know (as do not know the people who have organized the living=)) where exactly I`m actually going to stay=))). I mean, I looked through some internet pages, found on Google maps the street (that`s already good=)))!), but no Wohnheim or anything og the kind in der Naehe=) and I`m sure it`s no private apartment. Well, it`s Keiserstrasse 233, 66133 Saarbruecken-Scheidt. Does anybody know what can be there? The closest thing from there - the Saarbriuecken university.
Second problem, how much do you think it`s going to cost me if I buy a ticket for the bus (or anything that goes from there till Alte Saarbruecken) for one month?
Thanx in advance!

If you zoom into the map you can see Scheidt, Universität (close) and Alt-Saarbrücken (not that close).

Couldn't find a Saarbrücken bus network map online. They exist for sure in printed form.

For trips inside the zone 111 (all of Saarbrücken) you need a Preisstufe 0 ticket.
A monthly ticket is EUR 41,50. If you do not qualify for any discounted ticket.
Single ticket is EUR 2,00. A day ticket EUR 4,10.

Thank you very very much!
And if I have an ISIC, is the ticket cheaper, or its discount doesn`t spread over local transportation?

ISIC cards won't be accepted.
Discounts for students etc. are only for the ones at local institutations.
You only have a chance if you're enrolled at a local higher education insitution. Not when doing an internship at a company. And I don't know the exact rules for the SaarVV.
Students can get a Semster-Ticket (valid 1 term = 6 months) for really cheap (EUR 73,00) and valid for the whole state Saarland. Actually not an extra ticket, just an extra logo on their students ID card. But for 1 month this ticket makes no sense.

Thank you!
And - one more question=)) - when does the Rabbatt period start and to which city near Saarbruecken is to go best?=)
