If
you prefer, you could imagine you are sharing a flat in Rome and that
one of your flatmates is leaving soon. Write an advertisement to put
on a university noticeboard to try and find a new flatmate. Include
information about the rent, bills, the other flatmates, any rules or
preferences and contact details. This
was in the exam one year!

of the homepage for your institutional mail. The group will be
