Very nice week in bologna because of the gelato course and also because of the staying with the M&D, although it's strangely hot in Italy this year. The location is quite close to the city center, which is convenient for looking around the city, taking public transports, and finding restaurants, supermarkets, fruit and vegetable vendors... The room is big and tidy, with two single beds and a big table which is perfect for my homework. We are all busy during daytime, but we do chat a lot during breakfast and after work, and we enjoyed Chinese dinner together to share and understand different cultures....Wonderful! I strongly recommend their home for later travelers to Bologna and the surrounding areas, plus the Lamborghini and Ferrari museums in Modena as well as the gelato museum:)
