- What is your name?
Ana - Please write a short intro about yourself
I am Ana from Belgrade, Serbia. I graduated as an architect in Florence. - Why study or intern abroad in Florence?
Because it is the basis of modern art. - Is Florence a safe place to study abroad (perhaps mention also some nice/cool neighborhood to hang out) ?
It is quite safe. Nice neighbourhoods include Santo Spirito and San Frediano. - Cultural differences (food, family, work, etc..)
The relationship to food is different than what I was used to. - A fun story to share
I used the wrong word for “oaths” for several months and nobody corrected me. Finally, when I myself found out it was wrong I cringed so back remembering all the times I used it incorrectly. - What to pack before travelling to Florence?
Depends on when you’re coming. But maybe pack tour favourite cosmetics and snacks because maybe you wont be able to find them here. - Must do weekend trips (ie. in Tuscany, Rome, Milan, etc…)
Cinque Terre, San Gimignano, Milan, Assisi - Any advice to the newcomers?
