Introduction

This is my journal of the experience I had during my exchange in Rome. The University where I study for the time being is called LUISS Guido Carli which is a small and private but very renown university in Italy. This is a story about history, food and Italian way of life. We'll see how a average Finn from a town of 50000 people can handle the former capital of the world for 4 months...

Beach and studies - little vacation in the middle of exchange

Ciao again!

It has been quite some time since I last posted something but now the post will be a little bit more thorough. After one whole week the flu is finally getting away. The weather is still nice and warm during the daytime but in the evenings and mornings it is beginning to be quite cold. Last weekend was spent partying and after that laying on the beach in a very nice resort called Sperlonga, some 90 km South of Rome. The beach was really the culmination of my week because as a open space-loving person it was very good to get out of the fuss and chaos of Rome for a while.

For studying I am getting the routine already. I have bought all the books already and started to consider different presentation possibilities in some courses.

I have also spent some time planning my future travels, particurarly a trip to Istanbul on November. There is also a trip to Sicily in the vicinity on November as well so the next couple of months are going to be very hectic for me.

One thing that I am still little irritated about is the fact that we still don't have any working wifi in our apartment. Because here I really have learnt that the student life is very much based on the possibility to access the internet for study materials and enrolment of courses. At least there is a possibility to take care of every issue at the university.

The stereotypical Erasmus- life has become very clear to me. It really includes partying a lot and neglecting your studies in order to have a good time. For me I really want to enjoy the possibility to study in a different university and completely different topics than what we have at the University of Jyväskylä.

All that said, here are some photos of my journey to the beach and kingdom of relaxation!
At least in Finland it has snowed a little, I have heard so don't get too jealous!

Ci vediamo!
