What is it like to live in Milán? Would you recommend it? What is the city like?

I loved living im Milano! It is like no other city. I've lived in many places over the last years (Lima, Santiago de Chile, Paris, Milan and Dubai) and still Milan is favorite. I enjoyed the Milanese Lifestyle and met such great people from all over the world.

What is the student lifestyle like in Milán?

I went to Instituto Marangoni for my Master in Fashion. I didn't expect to make such great friends. The whole experience was amazing because of the people I had the luck to meet.

How much does it cost to live in Milán?

I think it should be ok with 1500 euros.

Is it difficult to find accommodation in Milán? Is there any advice you can give?

Yes, it's difficult! When I had to find a place I realized the pictures on the web page does not represent the reality. I think everybody must go and see the accommodation by themselves before booking.

What is the food like? What are your favourite dishes?

Food is amazing! Gelato is amazing! And coffee! I still miss it everyday!

What places would you recommend visiting in Milán?

The great thing about Milan is to discover it slowly, of course there are all the touristic places but I also was surprised unexpectedly by some beautiful locations I discovered later on. Still my favorite place is la Scala! So beautiful!
