My home? Europe!

-


I already talked about my story in this blog…
I am from Sardinia, Italy; I lived in Frankfurt Germany for one year and a half and I am now taking a master in London. Plus I will move back to Frankfurt once the Master will be over.

It is now break from University between one module and the other, this means I am supposed to be home, but where is home? Is my home my native county? Is my home where all my stuff is? Is my home where I currently have a doctor?

These are the questions that for people like me who travel a lot are coming up very frequently.
What are the signs of someone living in more countries at the same time?

#1 You have more SIM cards.

When on the plane they first think you do once landed is to change your SIM card and use the local phone number.

This also mean that whenever someone asks you your phone number you just say: well just look for me on facebook messenger.

#2 What’s your address?

This problem just came to me when ordering something on Amazon. I ordered a sleeping bag for a short trip to take next weekend. I realized that I had 3 addresses registered there and 3 credit cards. One per country I am living in.

I picked the right one I hope!

#3 University Break = Home! But where?

My university is in London, which means that when there are breaks I have 2 choices… One is to go to visit my family in Italy and one is to visit my boyfriend in Germany

It is not very nice to make that choice

#4 Everything is Everywhere

More than moving my stuff back and forth, I keep leaving some jeans in London some in Frankfurt, in Italy I have most of my summer clothes and dresses…

I currently have one toothbrush, one deodorant, one eyeliner, one mascara, one foundation tube and many other little things at each place. So, I won’t have to bring everything in my bag every time and I will not risk ending up with no PJ for the night for clean teeth for the day.

#5 I’m back!!

This is the most common sentence I tell everyone, wherever I am I have friends, family of loved ones happy to welcome me back every single time.

Visiting everyone is a pleasure and definitely a nice change to celebrate with a drink and nice food.
What have you noticed living in your life when living in different places at the same time? Let me know in your comments!

This was our itinerary Day 1 Arrivals Day!

Grandpa had a great experience with London pizza and everyone was happy. Day 2 Graduation Day! Ev

La città eterna - Rome

Rome, our Christmas gift! My mom keeps saying there aren’t traditional gifts anymore. It is true, the gifts me and my boyfriend exchange are normally in somehow “experiences”. A ticket to a water park, a trip to a new city, the ticket to a musical. Our Christmas gift was something we both enjoyed. One weekend in Rome, we went to Paris in November and since I am Italian I was more than happy to show Rome in January to my special one. Going with him to Rome led me see the city in a different light, much more romantic than the tipical museums and monuments trip. I discovered my boyfriend a person who’s incredibly interested in art and history. We had amazing time, great food, great weather (20° Celsius) and amazing sunsets. The best mix for a quick catch-up of our long-distance relationship, it was one of our planned trips to make the separations easier and it definitely worked. Here are some pictures, what are your favourite spots in Rome?

How to be a broke student in London

London is for definition an expensive city! This said, all your money will go to your rent and the public transportation, so I will tell now how I live well in London even being most of the time broke. EATING Lunch Of course eating at home of cooking and bringing your food to school is always the cheapest idea, but if you are a student, most of the time you have no time for cooking, so I normally take the meal deal from the supermarket (there is one near my university) which normally includes one sandwich or salad, plus a snack (I like to take fruit or carrots but you can even find chips and cookies) and a drink, from juice to water, to coke. For about £ 3,00 My other best option is Subway, for a bit more than £ 3,00 I can get half sub and I get water and drinks in school, or I buy some fruit and take one piece every day in my bag. Dinner out with friends Push your friends to eat Asian food, that ’ s the one I like the most and normally has the best r
