Italian for Residence Permit. Also translates to a week of your time and most of your sanity. But being a resident of Bologna does come with perks.
Bologna is a short little city, so this is the view you'll get from pretty much anything above 6 floors.
My flat is perfect. In a building above a cafe, close to school, and down the street from a main piazza. It's owned by a professor (currently taking leave) so the corridors are lined with books. Any subject you want, you could find it here. So far, I've found texts in Italian, English, German, Spanish and French!
There's a table for eating.
And a sun room for sitting.
And a bedroom for sleeping. I have yet to unpack or decorate, but it's got all the essentials. A bed, a large desk, a window that overlooks the small piazza, and CLOSET SPACE.
The best part are all the tiny details that make the place feel really homey.
Oh, and I have a roommate! Her name is Sirtaj, she's from Chandigarh, India, and she's pretty fantastic. Expect to see more of her (mostly in an upcoming expedition to an Indian restaurant here in Bologna).
