Mother’s Day in Italy: what to do and how to celebrate it

0
0

Mother’s Day in Italy this year is May 12th. Until 2000 in Italy, Mother’s Day was May 8th. It was then decided to move it to allow all mothers to take advantage of the holiday to have more time to spend with their children.

Mother’s Day is the right occasion to enjoy time together, perhaps doing something new and original. Not the usual little gift, therefore, Milan is the right city to find the best ideas for Mother’s Day. Here are our tips and some more ideas to make this occasion unforgettable.

Original ideas to celebrate Mother’s Day in Milan

The events in Milan for Mother’s Day are varied and numerous, here are the ones that impressed us the most.

  1. A visit to the museum
    Roy Lichtenstein
    For those who love Pop art, a must at Mudec for the exhibition “Roy Lichtenstein. Multiple Visions. ”And at the“ Milano Pop ”exhibition dedicated to the sixties Italian pop art, at Palazzo Lombardia exhibition space, until May 29th. For mothers who appreciate the classics, Antonello da Messina exhibition at Palazzo Reale is unmissable, until June 2nd. And for those who love photography, we recommend “Surrogates. An ideal love “at the Prada Osservatorio, until 22 July.
  1. A day of well-being
    Thermal
    To treat yourself to a day of relaxation and pampering in the city, you can choose between the QC Terme Milano in Porta Romana or the Hammam della Rosa to immerse yourself in the ritual of the Turkish bath.
  2. A cooking class together
    Cooking
    Why not take advantage of your stay in Milan to learn a new recipe or more elaborate cooking techniques? In one of the many cooking schools in Milan, you can experiment in the bakery workshops, Italian regional kitchens, and world cuisine,
  3. Milan from the above
    Ballonflight
    For the most adventurous, give a balloon flight over Milan, surely one of the most original ideas for Mother’s Day in Italy.  With Milano Mongolfiere, you can enjoy a magical and silent flight experience and a 360 ° panorama, followed by refreshments with doc wine, cheese, and local salami. 
  4. Long distance mother’s day ideas
    Movie
    And if unfortunately, it is not possible to be together in the same city, you can surprise your mother with an original gift like a bracelet with the coordinates of the place where you are (like this smmade), watch Netflix together and chat while doing it, call each other and start the movie at the same time. Send her a souvenir from Milan, or simply send her a bunch of flowers with Interflora.

Happy mother’s day!

How to apply for a student accommodation in Milan: all you need to know!

0
0

Finding the right accommodation in Milan may be stressful, especially for foreign students who don’t know Italian and how renting works in Italy.

Milan is Italy’s second city but is the heart of finance, fashion, and design. This means there are many expats in Milan – as well as many international students -, making for a vibrant and cosmopolitan city.
The downside is the competitive rental market.

Here we are sharing the best tips and ideas on how to apply for student accommodation in Milan.

Life in Milan is good! With three easily accessible airports (Milano Linate, Milano Malpensa, Milano Orio al Serio) and three main train station, Milan is your first door to Italy. Close to the Italian Lakes and the Alps, Milan has always an opportunity to escape the city over the weekend.

All these advantages come with a cost.

A one bedroom apartment in the city centre costs on average around €1000/month, excluding utilities. On the other hand, a single room in a shared apartment will set you back at €600 / €700.

Check out this quick guide to find the perfect place for you in Milan.

How to apply for the right student accommodation in Milan: 4 tips & ideas

1. Where to look for the right place to stay

Ever joined Facebook groups? There are some specifically designed to connect prospective tenants with those looking to rent their room.

Remember a few golden rules: be quick to respond, be honest and straightforward in your dealings. Landlords may post flat share offers in a handful of different groups and websites.
Among online platforms, check out Uniplaces and benefit our promo code to get a discount!

2. Select the best locations to live

Set back and think about your daily routine. What do you enjoy most and what bothers you? Do you prefer moving in your comfort zone, getting quickly to your university/workplace, or do you have specific needs when it comes to neighborhood and quality of life?

Naturally, wherever you choose to rent in Milan will be largely imposed by your budget. But take time to explore the city, ask around and get informed before committing to a long rent contract.

3. Districts

Porta Venezia in Zone 3 is an incredibly diverse neighborhood, popular with expats, where you can find people from all walks of life getting along together. Zone 3 is called Città Studi because of the large number of universities and college campuses there. Not surprisingly, this is an area very popular among international students, who can find reasonably priced homes and still get easily to class.

4. Italian essentials

Even if you don’t speak any Italian yet, it can help to know the basics of local rental terms. Many Italian rental sites are exclusively in Italian, so if you can’t rely on a local friend or don’t want to rely on an intermediary, it’s time to brush up your Italian with some help:

Affitto, offerte di affitto – To let (in online or paper ads)

Bilocale, Trilocale – Two main rooms including a bedroom.
They are arranged either with a separate kitchen or a kitchen area combined with the main living space.
Trilocale’s have an additional bedroom, making three main rooms.

Loft – we know it can be baffling, but in Italian, “loft” stands for an open plan style, and is not necessarily located at the top of the building.

Mansarda, Attico – Penthouse apartments (they are often more expensive)

Monolocale – A small studio type apartment, or one bedroom flat

Stanze – Rooms to let

Villa – Detached house

Villa a schiera – Terraced house

If after all our suggestions on how to apply for student accommodation, you still can’t be bothered to do the hard work, let us do it for you!
