Traditionally, the most popular means used by college students in their search for housing (in Siena, as in any other Italian city) is the bulletin board.
Posting a message on university bulletin boards and in transient student areas (cafeterias and copy shops the most popular) is a way to make direct contact with all those who frequent university venues: students first and foremost, but also homeowners who have realized the potential of these places for information exchange. But before we go to a virtual bulletin board, let’s try looking for a room to rent in Siena, even online 😉
Let’s look at some brief advice for those who plan to avail themselves of this communication venue; what should never be missing from an ad:
- the date of posting, which is crucial both for those who read it (to assess its “freshness”) and for those who regularly clean the bulletin boards (ads without a date are trashed with great pleasure);
- at least a phone number with a name paired with it, to make things easier for any people interested in the ad;
advisable also an e-mail, which is still not enough on its own; - a clear statement of why you posted the ad; it must always be clear whether you are seeking, or offering, something;
- A brief description of your research object;
- a few images to attract the attention of passersby (the only limit is your imagination and a little common sense);
