Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: With a family
Why?
Staying with an Italian family would have given me the possibility to learn more about their cuisine and customs. However living in the campus was a lot of fun because I had the possibility to interact with a lot of people who were my age.

Final comments
Whenever possible travel in large groups because you can get discounts. Try to visit as much as possible, Italy is a unique place and the cities have various architectures. Drink espresso because it’s the best coffee they make and live your life as it will be now tomorrow.
