-====  Camerino ==== +=== Ghent === 
-Camerino is a small hilltop town in the Apennines, in Marche, a region in central-eastern Italy. The town is home to the University of Camerino (UniCam), founded in 1336 and officially recognised by the Pope in 1727. It is currently ranked as the best university in Italy among those with fewer than 10,000 students.+Ghent is one of the most beautiful cities in Belgium. Founded at the confluence of the “Schelde” and the “Leie”, it became one of the larges cities of northern Europe in the late Middle Ages. It has a port and houses a top 100 university, Ghent University. The people of Ghent, also known as the “stroppendragers”, are known to be stubborn but kind.
