Personal comments
As Spain is the very best place to go out at night Bologna was a little bit disappointing for me but there were lots of spanish guys there and we all have made the bolognese night more interesting. Piazza Sto Stefano is the point where spanish guys meet to make botellon, as the heat arrives, more and more people do it with us.

My house was far away from the center of the city but it was great because it was a whole building with students and you can meet lots of students (erasmus or not) like you fastly.

Personal comments
For us spanish it is easy to understand italian language, even if we don't know anything when we arrive. Speaking it could be a little bit more difficult and it is true that lots of spanish guys are back in our country and they dont speak correctly italian, but if you want and make a small effort, you will be able!

I wish I had known...
Lots of things but i fear they can't be said, not because i dont want to, but because they are so many that must be each one to find them out.

Academic
Course recommendations
I have not gone to class in the whole year, of course it could be better to meet italian students but if you really want to live your erasmus life will be better for you to go out at night and sleep in the morning...
