“Tor Veragata - Try to find an appartment close to the University since it is not close to Romes center, and the public traffic is not the best. Try to contact your mentor way before u leave for Italy so that u can have him/her to organize half of the things, so that when you arrive you have time to socialize and study!” Read Review
