  • Day trip to Turin

    Another new Italian destination for this semester: Turin (called Torino in Italian). We booked the trip last Wednesday and went there yesterday, Friday. We thought Torino was one of the cities we had to go to this semester since it’s not so far from Milan, and many of...

  • Day-trip to Bergamo

    One of my day-trip from my first semester of Erasmus was to Bergamo, a city quite close to Milan. I went there by train, and from Milano Centrale (the main train station of Milan), it only takes about 30 minutes to get there: it’s really not so far! If you are...

  • Day trip to Varenna & Bellagio

    Today I want to write about the trip that I did just yesterday to the Como Lake (yes again: I can’t get enough of this place, it's so beautiful! ), and more precisely to the villages of Varenna and Bellagio. It was not my first time going to the Como Lake, but it was...

  • Day trip to Venice

    Last semester, in October, I went on a day-trip to Venice (Venezia in Italian). This city is known in the whole world to be one of the prettiest and most romantic cities, and I really wanted to visit it during my Erasmus. As soon as we got the opportunity, we booked the...

  • Free / discounted activities in Milan

    As some / most of you will, I guess, visit Milan as a student (or even do a whole Erasmus here), I thought it would be a good idea to make a post about things that you can do for free, or for which you can get a discount on the entry ticket in Milan with the status of...

  • Weekend in Florence

    As part of our Erasmus experience, we did a lot of trips during our first semester in Italy. In addition to Genoa, Cinque Terre and Lago di Como, we also went to Florence, which is called Firenze in Italian, in Tuscany and spent a whole weekend there. This was in...

  • Trip to Genoa

    While we were on the train to go and visit the villages of Cinque Terre, our train went through a city that seemed to be very pretty, even if I saw it only for like 5 minutes (you can imagine how pretty it must be to make you want to come back specifically to visit...

  • Day trip to Lago di Como

    The North of Italy, and more precisely the part of Milan and its surroundings, is often called the “region of lakes”. This is because there are quite a few lakes around here, including the three biggest Italian lakes, that are all close to one another: Lago di...

  • Most frequently asked questions about life in Milan

    Source As I get quite a few questions from people who could possibly be interested in living in Milan or just coming here to visit, I thought I would make a post with my answers to these questions and to let other people who may not have the chance of knowing somebody...

  • Day trip to Cinque Terre

    Cinque Terre had been one of my dream destinations for years. Even just last year, I was thinking that it would take years for me to be able to go to this place. Little did I know that I was going to go for an Erasmus in Milan, Italy and that Cinque Terre is really...

  • What to see (and do) in Milan

    As it is a big city (the second biggest in Italy! ), Milan offers many things to see. Whether you like historical monuments or modern buildings, being surrounded by a crowd of people or having your space to wander, there will be something for you to do and appreciate in...

  • Christmas time in Milan

    I wanted to make a special post specifically dedicated to Christmas decorations in Milan while we are still (more or less) in the spirit of it, because they are absolutely beautiful (in my opinion of course, but I think many other people in the city share it). You can...
