good job, good luck and i wish you success in all your endeavors' if you are jewish, you might be interested in a chabad center near you they are jewish outreach organizations visit chabad.org even if you aren't jewish or aren't planning on converting there is a lot of interesting information u might find helpful, or u can find a chabad center in italy near you you can work for again, good luck!

I'm sure Florence Design Academy will help you find jobs. You can always create a website and offer interior design help. Or you could create a website and become a travel agent for english speakers going to italy. Or sell things on e bay. These are just some of the many things you could do.

How do i visit Italy for a weekend on a student's budget?
How do i visit Italy for a weekend on a student's budget?
Hi, I'm a student studying abroad this semester in Paris. I am on a ridiculously tight budget and won't be able to spend alot of money on anything other than the necessities. i *do* however want to visit Italy (and England too maybe/hopefully) for a weekend, I don't have classes Friday so I would probably leave then or Thursday and come back Sunday. How much would the trip cost including getting there, hostels, etc.? Thanks!

There are many ways to travel on a shoestring budget once you're in Europe. Book your train tickets ticket well in advance. Visit French Rail's Web site to see what advance booking savings are available, www.sncf.com. Limit your visit to northern Italy so you won't have to travel too far. Cities such as Bologna and Ravenna are spectacular and less touristy than Venezia or Roma. Look at Web sites such as TripAdvisor.com to identify good but affordable places to stay. Sometimes a pensione (similar to a B&B) in a suburban town is even cheaper than a hostel. Eat your main meal in the middle of the day, taking advantage of the posted "menu," which often includes soup or salad and a main course at substantial savings or a-la carte prices. Or shop at a market for bread, meat and cheese and have an "urban picnic" in a park and people-watch. Be sure you buy the International Student Identity Card. It offers free or deeply discounted admissions to museums, climbing cathedral towers, and other attractions. Two or three days of use pretty much covers the cost of the card. It also comes with a modest traveler's insurance. Visit www.myisic.com. Certainly take full advance of the incredible opportunity to venture into other countries during your semester in Paris. In addition to London (just 2.5 hours by Eurostar train), there is Germany, Belgium, Holland, Switzerland and Luxembourg, all just waiting for you to come exploring!

There's a night train that leaves Paris from the Bercy station at 6:52 pm and arrives in Florence at 7:13 am the next morning - if you buy a ticket in advance and the Smart price is not sold out, you can get a berth in a 6 bed compartment for 35 euro. You could also continue on the same train to Rome. There's a similar night train returning to Paris. There's also a night train from Paris Bercy at 10:33 pm that arrives in Venice at 9:34 am the next morning for a similar price. There are other (higher price) discounted levels on tickets if the Smart price is sold out. Personally, I like the night trains and use them between my home in northern Italy and Paris when ever I go. Check into hostels for the stay while you're here. http://www.hostelworld.com/countries/italyhostels.html?source=googleadwordscountry&gclid=CIbn7vWnnp8CFcmOzAodeRng7g One caveat - Carnevale is coming up in February - it's likely that the discounted fares will already be sold out for at least the 6th through the 16th. However, it's much quieter the week before and after Carnevale and you might be able to find cheap tickets and cheap places to stay then or toward the end of January. You can eat fairly cheaply if you stick to panini, wraps, pizza by the slice, or bruschetta available at the bars or other food stands.

Possibly. If something looks shady. I've been stopped by immigration several times. I just cooperate and eventually get sent through...as long as you have nothing to hide, you are just fine.
2 :
Don't see why they would as long as everything seems legitimate and they don't think you'll try to stay in the country for any reason. As long as you have all of that (and enough money to cover you're expenses while you're there) you should be fine.
3 :
They can for any reason they want...Its a learning experiance for any American, especialy a naive one. They do it in our own borders but not frequent enough I believe..... If you were just wondering, don't take anything illegal anywhere! You might find prisons/ Jails are nothing like in U.S.
4 :
If your papers are all OK the only reasons can be: there's a warn about you by Schengen system or you're considered a treat to public order and public health or national security.

Backpacking through Italy on a student budget, can anyone recommend cultural places to stay cheap?
Backpacking through Italy on a student budget, can anyone recommend cultural places to stay cheap?
Places between Rome and Florence would be amazing since I'm planning on stopping a lot through there, but anywhere in Italy you say would helpful since I'm starting in Sicily and going up to around Venice. Thanks.

Siena, San Gimignano, San Miniato and other small towns are gorgeous, you should really spend some time there. I would make stops in Toscana (Tuscany) rather than in Lazio...I'd visit just Rome in this region and then I'd head north, to Toscana (where Firenze is). If you want to keep costs low, you should try to look for some hostels on hostelworld.com, which is always really helpful. Go to Lucca if you have the chance, it's a small lovely city quite near Firenze. After Toscana, you might want to visit Bologna and Ferrara in Emilia-Romagna and finally Venice. On average, these places shouldn't be too expensive...it's up to you to try and find some cheap hostels, cafés and restaurants!
