STUDENT LIFE

KEY:
Amazing! Hardly had time to study.
Plenty to do when I had the time.

Nightlife
Travel
Overall
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

Language difficulties
Social
KEY:
No problems.
I coped pretty well.
Sometimes it was difficult.
It was a constant struggle.
Educational
Administrative / Institutional
Overall
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
