Du kan flytta till Rom på egen hand, med en vän eller som ett par. Det finns för- och nackdelar med alla situationer. Om du funderar på att flytta utomlands med någon form av vän kan det vara en riktigt bra idé att sätta sig ner och prata igenom praktiska saker och vardagssysslor som ekonomi, räkningar, städning, mathandling, laga mat kontra beställa hem, gå ut/stanna hemma, hur ni hanterar att eventuellt gå ut utan varandra samt att ha vänner och familj på besök (både från nära och fjärran och för längre vistelser).

Conclusion: communication is key if you and your friend decide to move abroad together
