That is an extremely good point. Italy has many micro-cultures. Fortunately they all work and play together very well.

Unfortunately foreigners tend to always go to the same places when they come to Italy. In reality we must consider that in Italy there are 20 regions, all different from each other. There are different lifestyles, different dialects, different food, different climate etc. For each region. My suggestion is to go beyond the usual destinations, choose an area, a region and visit it calmly away from the most crowded areas, you will not be disappointed.

In Italy alcohol is purchased less than in other European countries, so I highly doubt that Italians drink more than Germans and Americans. Italians probably drink more frequently because there is the habit of drinking a glass of wine or beer at lunch or dinner but the quantity of alcohol ingested is evidently much more limited, in fact over half of the population drink very little alcohol and only during meals and many do not drink alcohol at all, for example I am a teetotaler and have never drunk alcohol in my life. It is typical of warm Mediterranean countries to drink little alcohol, in fact Italy, Spain and Greece are the countries where people drink the least amount of alcohol in Europe.

Some of Japanese typically don’t realize that for cultures that values direct, open and honest communication, lack of communication actually has much more potential for damage. It is important to check the tendencies of the culture one is dealing with, using the scale provided. I learn that When dealing with more direct cultures, be proactive about communicating what is on your mind, even if it is something that you think the other person will not be happy hearing. I still learn When dealing with more indirect cultures, be careful to not overpower them, and create an atmosphere where they feel comfortable communicating.

As an italian: for me, when you came in Italy you must learn before the politeness, in Venice the tourists are very rude: they eat on the streets, stay in the middle of the street and the bridges, enter into the churchs in unapropriated dresses.

Very interesting. I'm an American raised by immigrant Italian parents from Sicily. We've always had access to my grandparent's house there so I spend a lot of time in Sicily visiting relatives and friends since childhood also traveling throughout Italy. I accept and understand both cultures exactly how they are, both the negatives and the positives. It also helps speaking the language and our dialect that I was taught as a child. There are certain things I can relate more with Italy than the US like how one dresses in public, food, that's all we talk about, and family being together quite often especially at meals. I can get loud and passionate myself about things at times so I can actually relate, maybe it's in the DNA. I can also understand people's frustration with the beurocracy in Italy and the further south you go, the worse it gets. If I were to go and live in Sicily, there wouldn't be any culture shock because I'm very familiar with Sicily, Northern Italy perhaps.

Generalmente gli italiani ricchi tendono a restare con quelli della propria cerchia,gli uomini italiani amano le straniere poiche le italiane se la tirano per molti motivi tipo culturali o ecinomici,gli italiani alzano ka voce quando parlano perche c e troppa gente ed è normale gesticolare per parlare e fare presto..inutile imparare la gestualità..bisogna vivere li per imparare e i gesti sono molti.ci baciamo per rispetto ma esistono varie regole che nessuno spiega..ma solo per lonpiu fra oersone che si conoscono.ah bella viene detto anche se non sei bella ma non ci ricordiamo il nome oppure per dire come stai...cio che diciamo non è sempre alla lettera la cena e il pranzo sono ad orario tardivo poiche seguono gli orari di ufgicio e soprattutto c e vita in Italia dopo cena quindi devi andare ad un locale a mezzanotte non orima..saresti visto male.non ci ubruachiamo mai..noi assaggiamo il vino e mangiamo senza abbuffarci.cerchiamo di restare giovani piu a lungo possibile.ci sposiamo tardi poiche studiamo molto di piu e le case costano troppo ed è difficile ottenere un mutuo.il sole e sempre presente.mangiamo pasta tutti i giorni perche la adoriamo..la pizza non la dividiamo con nessuno è sacra.noi italiani non parliamo italiano ma parliamo fra di noi in italiano solo se di regioni differenti altrimenti parliamo dialetto.vietato bere cappuccino per pranzo è per la colazione.il dolce far niente è molto relativo.l energia e differente in Italia.per diventare cittadino italiiano crefo servano 10 anni.I vestiti e le borse di marca costanto tanti tanti tanti euro

The american guy was the funniest and most of the things he said were totally true.

US-Americans (always): "I'm from the USA, which represents 5% of the world population, but because I'm arrogant and entitled, I'm going to assume that everybody knows the geography of my country even though I don't know the geography of any other country" 🤣 - If they were less entitled (and less noisy), I don't think US-Americans would be disliked here in Europe. Even the woman from Russia - which is the largest country on Earth - said "Russia" rather than "South Krasnorask", "Nizhny Novgorod Oblast", or whatever 😅

Each coin has two sides...plus, when you are an expat you can't judge according to the parameters you grew up with. I learned that while living in London, the US and France. Also an Italian...and, btw, older men giving attention to teenagers is just sick. It wouldn't happen here in Veneto where I live. And to the guy complaining there's not enough shopping centers...there are way too many already if you ask me.

Well pasta its for us,if u like it eat it if not we have a million of different staff,for burocracy they have to understand that we share the same Nightmare,also for italian .at the end if you live in a nice place or a beautifull place doesn' t have any importance were, than your life will be different believe me.

We don't hear this kind of music...

Italy has been my favorite country to visit. I don't know if I could live there but I would go and vacation there all the time if I could.

Why mandolino?🤦

I remember the first time I went to Italy, I was with my art school and one of our teachers brought his wife. Both where in their 60s and our Italian waiter who was in his 30's starts to sing to my teachers wife and then proceeds to kiss her. lol

The main problem is that foreigners especially americans idealise Italy. Italy has so many flaws. Also, its very diverse country with a lot of economical difficulties. For sure after a while, the stereotype of italians being friendly and fun goes away. Also, many people in italy never left their town so maybe when they meet a foreigners they just think: "ok I just want to have fun".

I live near Naples, and here almost everything sucks. There's corruption everywhere, even in the hospitals if you want the best treatment you need somebody who knows somebody. Also the older people who are in charge of everything are ignorant, racist and treat employees like slaves. We also have issues with illegal gypsy camps. Of course there are good things about living here, like the food, the sights and the people, but everything else sucks, even compared to northern Italy.

I don't think italy is a country in serious difficultiy, not much more difficult than other countries especially in europe have! Obviously we italians, are normally friendly, unfortunately from what you write i see that your level of sympathy towards us is probably too low and for this reason perhaps you haven't had many friends!
