I arrived to Bologna on the evening of January 1 and was warmfully greeted by the G. As supermarkets didnt work, I couldnt buy anything to eat so G offered me some food which was very kind. The room I was staying in was very spacious with all the necessities included: big comfortable bed, extra blanket ( i didnt need it as the room was warm) a towel and there was even a small balcony with an ashtray.
