Ciao!

We are Pille, Egle and Kristel and we are doing our practices in Foggia.

The city has about 150 000 inhabitants and it is located in the southeast of Italy, not far from the Adriatic coast. City is small and compared to other italian cities, quite cheap. And one more good thing that it has a good railway connection with other cities. 

Main square in Foggia - Piazza Cavour

We arrived in the end of March … so we have been here for a while. In the beginning the weather was quite cold, but it is getting warmer and warmer every day. The hospital is very different from Estonian hospitals and only some of the staff can speak english. We can do the same procedures as in Estonia, but the way of doing them is different. The hospital, where we are doing our practices belongs to the university and is the biggest in Puglia region. Besides us there are a lot of local students also, who are basically our translators. 

Entrance of the park

The city is quite small and there is nothing much to do with our free time, so during the weekends we are travelling and exploring Italy. But about that in the next post.

Greetings from Foggia

Egle, Kristel and Pille
