Hi, I am planning to come and stay in Italy for approx 6 months so I can improve my language skills and also spend some time with my family. Where can I find accommodation for this period of time that isnt going to cost a fortune? I would love to be situated in L'Aquila.
If you are enrolled in an Italian language school, check with them if they offer homestay arrangements with Italian families. These arrangements are usually convenient and also provide immersion in the language and culture.
