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

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
