An Italian Friend for You - exchange students

ESN Trent, with the cooperation of the University of Trento (LLP-Erasmus office), has prepared an initiative for the incoming Erasmus students: the Buddy Project “An Italian Friend for You”.

Thanks to this initiative Erasmus students can ask for a buddy, i.e. a local student who would like to help an exchange student through the first few weeks of his/her stay in Trento.

For local students the Buddy Project represents an excellent opportunity to meet new friends, to improve a foreign language, to introduce our country to students coming from all over the world and, for sure, to have a lot of FUN.

In general the buddy, on the base of his/her willingness, could:

• pick-up the Erasmus student at the train station;
• help looking for an accomodation or for the accomodation assigned by the Opera Universitaria;
• give useful information about University courses;
• give advices on where to shop;
• introduce the Erasmus student to the university life in trento.

The extent of the relationship beyond this is determined individually, but many buddies become real friends.

To participate, Erasmus students can join the initiative from the following link: www.esntrento.it/buddy/
