STUDENT LIFE
Personal social experience
Describe host city: Students interact with the local community without much university involvement
Nightlife, Travel: Takes place mostly outside the university/student environment Activities: Takes place both within and outside of the university/student environment Personal comments:
Turin is a city with an amazing nightlife. Every night during the week, and even on sundays there is something to do. The Murazzi, by the river, is the heart of Turins nightlife. There are plenty of bars, each one with different music and enviroment, which permit people to chose one or another according to their pleasures. We can find as well a lot of pubs and discos all around the city, from reggae bars to electro clubs This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

Language difficulties
Language of instruction: Italian
Was learning Italian a key decision factor?
Yes, I wanted to improve my Italian How much did you improve your Italian?
My level before: Did not speak it My level after: No problems in any areas (including slang) Personal comments:
Well, italian and spanish are similar languages. So I guess that is the reason why i learnt so fast. Also, i found that is a country where most of the people help you in a conversation or do an effort to try to understand what you are saying. Also I liked so much italian language because of the way it sounds, so I had from the begining the interest to learnt it. I guess that this interest was also an important factor in the learning of the language This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

I think that everything went alright, and in fact i guess that this kind of ignorance before going let you apreciate the surprises you find after during your Erasmus experience In my opinion:
Everybody loved it, you will too!
During my experience abroad, I ...
Personal recommendation:
Just take care with the convalidation of the different terms, because they often change and you just realize about it once you are there FINAL COMMENTS
I guess i just can say that Erasmus is, as everybody says, really an experience that change your life This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
