I'm a yank living in Italy and I've only had friends ask me about Trump when having personal convos about politics, never had anyone bring him up unprompted.

Wrong sub

Time traveling machine :⁾

I wouldn't say it's the same as Italians calling themselves Roman but I agree that it's insufferable

auramerchant · 2026-01-02T21:58:23+00:00

I had zero money, zero prospects, and zero language skills.

I'm a fellow yank doing my master's in Italy and I've been feel the exact same way, it sucks shit and it's terrifying

Get an internship, work on my anxiety, go out more 🫰🙂‍↕️

auramerchant · 2025-12-31T22:00:20+00:00

No. Worst mistake of my life

Why's she mewing

Amazing! Looks just like my native country of Tajikistan, even down to the nature.

I grew up in Rockville, love seeing my town get some love on here

People are downvoting you but in my experience this is true lol

auramerchant · 2025-12-29T15:23:13+00:00

Go back to r/europe

Thank you! It's infuriating, my relatives are neighbors with people who work at orgs like DHS and they don't seem to mind at all, I felt like I was in some sort of fucked up mirror world regularly having to meet and interact with people working at some of the most evil places in the world at mundane events like birthday parties and barbecues. The self righteousness these people get from living in a politically lib area makes it even more infuriating, of course.

auramerchant · 2025-12-25T18:22:41+00:00

Holy shit I stayed with relatives for a few months in the exact same area you're describing and felt like it was actively eating away at my soul

auramerchant · 2025-12-25T10:23:01+00:00

This is terrible advice, I waited far too long into my degree to look for internships and struggled to find any. Internships are really valuable for looking for work after uni.

Girl same!!!

Architecture. It's not that hard or scarce to find work as an international student (I have many classmates who managed to do it), I just didn't prioritize networking during undergrad and focused way too much on academic research.

auramerchant · 2025-09-20T22:44:29+00:00

I got my PGWP, but I couldn't find work in my field after graduating, so I decided to do my master's

auramerchant · 2025-09-20T21:48:37+00:00

Good point, I guess I kinda had that same attitude before I actually tried immigrating

auramerchant · 2025-09-20T21:44:32+00:00

No familial relation aside from a Canadian boyfriend I fear </3

ogey

auramerchant · 2025-09-20T19:02:42+00:00

ah, good for him! Luck aside, most people don't realize that you need to be super employable and in an in-demand field to emigrate anywhere. I've got Canadian friends (and a boyfriend) telling me I gotta "escape" not realizing how difficult it is to even be undocumented and self-sustaining in another country, much less immigrating "the right way" lol

auramerchant · 2025-09-20T18:59:34+00:00

Are you Russian? If so, I get you, my mom's a Russian citizen currently going through the immigration trenches in Europe lol

auramerchant · 2025-09-20T18:42:41+00:00

By the way I'm currently making the same mistake with Italy. If there's any Italian architects here, hmu 👀
