The academic year has begun last Monday, and Turin looks like totally different: so many students walk in the street to go to class, to buy books, to find an accommodation, to try to understand how university life is.
On Mondays there is the TANDEM aperitivo at the Zero bar located in Via Vanchiglia at the corner with Piazza Vittorio, where you can enjoy the happy hour talking different languages (mostly English, actually) to the Erasmus people. It is called “tandem” because it should be an occasion where both you and your new friend can practice a different language (English in your case, Italian for the foreigner), and you can really have fun there. From 7 pm you can have access to the buffet (literally, you can really eat as much as you want) and drink one drink just for 5€.
