Italian Culture SHOCKS! An American Living in Italy | Cultural Differences ITALY vs. USA

When in Rome - DO AS THE ROMANS DO! In this video, I share the things I found to be Italian Culture Shocks as an American living in Italy and the Cultural Differences between Italy vs. USA! I grew up in Los Angeles and moved to Italy in my early-to-mid 20's. The first time I went to Italy was to study abroad in Rome, then after finishing university I decided to move back to be a tour guide, living in both Rome & Florence. If you have had similar culture shocks, or perhaps different ones, I would love to hear them so leave me a comment below! :)
