Answer 1

The vast majority of student accommodation has cooking utensils, plenty of shops Glasgow city centre is minutes away on the tube, can't comment on prices as I don't know the equivalent prices in Italy, it's Glasgow so leave your shades, shorts and suncream at home and bring a brolly and woolly jumper!

Answer 2

Cooking utensils are normally included. There are supermarkets around and Glasgow is ok in price compared to places like London.

Answer 3

Temperatures don't get extremely cold here in winter but you will need a warm winter jacket and a pair of gloves for deep winter.  

You are right in the heart of the West End.  Nearby there is a Somerfield and a Marks and Spencer supermarket on Byres Road.  Somerfield's prices are usually quite cheap and this is probably the best shop for you.  Marks and Spencer is very expensive.  

Most student accommodation has utensils provided.

Answer 4

Allen b has got this answer give him the ten points and have a nice stay in Scotland.

Answer 5

All student flats are furnished so you will have all you need when you move in. Somerfields is the store to to do your weekly shop as they are very cheap to buy in bulk. Bring a selection of T shirts & jumpers. It can be cold one day & sunny the next in Scotland. Enjoy.
