Hi! Here I am with our weekly date.
This week has been great, it was the one in which everything has started: new lessons, new people, new adventures. 
I don’t want to be boring so I won’t tell you every details of my lessons..but I have to say that I’m excited: every course is soo interensting! Our teachers are managers, consultant, people belonging from the real business and economic world, people able to tell you real case histories, real facts. For now I am really enthusiastic about MCI, but I will tell you more about my university in another post.
The best aspect of my university life has been the chace to meet new people: I have been incredibly lucky! My classmates are so nice and very helpful to me. The most exciting aspect of our class is that it is composed for at least a third by international students, so everyone carry his or her own culture, and in addiction, all of us are very open minded.
As you can see, this Erasmus is proving to be an incredible experience. With some members of the exchange students crew, I went in the mountain last weekend, and we try to sledding. For almost all of us it was the first time: I let your imagination run. Crashes, runs at full speed, mad sledges, accidents have been the result. But finally we could enjoy a very earned meal under the sun, in front of that huge mountains. That was good!
My week has passed between parties with the Erasmus friend, in their dorms and around the city. Thursday at 7.30 pm we met to discover all the best pubs and bars of Innsbruck, and it has been great.
Another highlight of this second week was the party at the Mansi(o)n. A danish classmate of mine organized it on Friday, and we had a lot of fun, nibbling some pizzas, playing crazy (alcoholic) games.
This weekend has passed in a very relaxing way. Sleeping till late, having a special real american “Cheesburger” dinner, jogging a bit and enjoing some friends.
Tomorrow a new week is starting: we will have lessons, but we are also plannig a special trip to Vienna, so stay tuned!

Hi! Eccomi qui con il nostro appuntamento settimanale.
Questa settimana è stata fantastica, è stata la settimana in cui tutto è davvero iniziato: nuove lezioni, nuove persone, nuove avventure.
Non voglio annoiarvi raccondovi tutti i dettagli delle mie lezioni.. ma lasciatemi dire che sono davvero gasata: ogni corso è stra interessante! I nostri prof sono manager, consulenti, persone provenienti dal mondo del business e del lavoro, persone in grado di raccontarci casi concreti, storie realmente accadute. Per Ora sono davvero entusiasta dell’MCI, ma vi racconterò meglio della mia università in un altro post. 
L’aspetto migliore della mia universitaria qui è la possibilità di incontrare gente nuova: e sono stata incredibilmente fortunata! I miei compagni di classe sono gentilissimi e super disponibili nei miei confronti. Ma la cosa più eccitante è che la nostra classe è composta per almeno un terzo da studenti provenienti da tutto il mondo, così ognuno porta con se e condivide la propria cultura..e devo dire che siamo tutti molto più open minded rispetto a quanto sono abituata!
Come avrete notato, questo erasmus si sta dimostrando una esperienza incredibile. Con alcuni degli studenti erasmus, sono andata in montagna a fare slittino. Per quasi tutti era la prima volta: vi lascio immaginare in finale! Scontri, corse a tutta velocità, slittini impazziti, incidenti! Ma alla fine ci siamo goduti un meritato pranzo in baita sotto il sole, di fronte a quelle magnifiche montagne. Quella è stata la parte migliore!
La mia settimana poi è trascorsa fra feste con il gruppo Erasmus, nei loro dormitori o in giro per la città. Giovedì alle 19,30 ci siamo incontrati per andare alla scoperta di tutti i migliori pub e bar di Innsbruck, ed è andata alla grande. 
Un altro highlight di questa seconda settimana è stata la festa alla Mansi(o)n. Un mio compagno di classe danese l’ha organizzata venerdì, e ci siamo divertiti un sacco smangiucchiando pizza e facendo pazzi giochi (alcolici e non).  
Questo week end è stato all’insegna del relax. Dormire fino a tardi, organizzare una cena tipica americana a base di cheesburger, fare finalmente jogging e vedere qualche amico.
Domani inizia una nuova settimana: avremo lezioni, ma stiamo anche programmando un viaggio a Vienna, quindi rimanete sintonizzati! 



Hi guys! It has been a very full week! 
The orientation week at MCI, the university I will attend for the next three or four months, has started on tuesday. It was an incredible day: more than 100 students from all over the world were listening to the first important things to know about the university, the campus, the teaching methods, and other practical information. The tour of the campus was the first occasion to meet each other and to make new friends.






In these two days we started to hang around Innsbruck, enjoying sunny and snowy days.


But how can I miss to tell you about our amazing first two nights out? A crew made of crazy and nice american, finnish, argentinian, polish, uruguayan, italian, spanish, and french guys started the REAL Erasmus life. 
Wednesday was the night in the mountains: after two crowded cable-cars we arrived on the top, at nearly 2000 meters, to enjoy the one and only Igloo Bar, Cloud 9! What a view from there!! You could see all the lights of Innsbruck.
After some cups of mulled wine and thousands of french fries, the crew went down to the city to keep on the night in the supercool Irish Pub.





Thursday was the Erasmus Welcome Party night. The spot was the famous Jimmy’s, where I had the possibility to meet my new friends and also students from other universities. But it wasn’t enough: we finally went dancing in a very cool club. 







The most amazing thing of these first few days has been the possibility to meet people from so many different countries: beyond the fact that everyone is very nice, kind and always smailing, each person can tell you stories about his hometown, share his culture and the peculiarities of his languages. 
The atmosphere is gorgeous, exciting, and I feel this will be a great experience.  


It’s been about a week since I arrived here in Innsbruck, and now I feel ready to start a new web adventure: blogging about my Erasmus.

I needed some days to understand where I was, how things work here, and I am not sure I’ve already catch them all, but you have to start somewhere…so let’s the erasmus begin.

I will tell you stories about my experiences here, the difficulties I met before moving in Austria, cause I want to make my blogs exciting, funny but also useful for other people who want to move here.

I will start from the choice I’ve made in Italy about making Innsbruck the destination of my period abroad, the way in which I organized everything and the first impressions as an outsider of this beautiful city.

So people, enjoy!
