Iheartmilano

Hiya My husband and I are moving from Ayr in Scotland to Milan in September. I Have a job in a school but my husband is yet to find work and will be following me ASAP! I have stayed in Milan before (8 years ago) but we are really looking forward to getting to know Milan and look forward to life in Italy. I have somewhere to stay until my husband comes but could anyone please recommend affordable areas to live in Milan for a young couple? Also, any expat bars in Milan that anyone knows of would be fab! Thanks!
