First day in Bergamo and not only 27.03

 

On Sunday morning we went to the practice places to check how are students are doing and visited Pasticceria Santa Anna and Giopi e la Margi restaurant. Students were ok:) Dmitri met his friends, who still working there, greeted them, and have a cup of Italian coffee. After this, we decided to visit Como lake and went to a bus station. Dmitri used to use a local website to check train tickets https://www.trenitalia.com/it.html

There were two options; expensive and fast / сheaper and longer. So we decided to save money and preferred train whole day tickets 16.50 euros per person. The trip took about 50 minutes and at station Monzo we had to change a train. When you are going by train and buying tickets you have to validate tickets at train station, otherwise, you will get a fine in the train. Also using a trenitalia you have to check, how much does train cost, because with a cheap ticket you cannot come back from the destination by more expensive train. 

It was an amazing trip and breathtaking views. Como lake is very beautiful. We had a boat trip. There are a lot of stations that you can visit using a boat. The boat costs about 8 euros, and you can go one way and take off, where you want. Then you will come back buy another boat, which will bring you back to the first station. If you are not going to visit any station, the trip will take about 30-40 minutes.

Then we came back to Bergamo and checked, how students are doing in their apartments. Everything was fine and they were satisfied with accommodation terms.
