| Lovely city indeed... Been there three times, definitely a nice place to spend some time. Keep in mind living somewhere is somewhat different from visiting a place for holidays, though. Haven't been there for longer than a week, so I wouldn't know what it's really like to live there.. |

You at NYU? I haven't been there myself, but the program has been recommended to me, on several occasions.
As for the city, it's cozy. Small but orderly. The brown of the aged buildings, which cover the downtown area, makes the city feel small but welcoming. There's a river, bridges connecting the two sides.
It looks and feels like charcoal, and makes you want to sip red wine on a small table in a terrace or on a sidewalk.
You'd learn Italian as part of the program.
It's a nice opportunity. |

He has a Us flag, said it was abroad so I'm assuming he's talking about Italy.
It's a real nice city. I went there a couple times and it does have that old feel which makes it so charming. Going abroad for school is always a good experience. |
