Course recommendations
at the beginning of the semester you would be well advised to tell the teacher that you are an erasmus-student, because then he probably will speak slower and clearer.

i enjoyed trieste very much. it is a nice city, beautiful located with its sights (e.g. the castle of miramare and sangiusto). i recommend the summer semester because then you can enjoy the sea and the city and its social life is animated.
