In this VIDEO:
❌ 1 - DON’T order cappuccino after 11am.

Cappuccino in Italy is a morning drink which has to be consumed together with your breakfast.

If you a fancy a cup of coffee after lunch time and can’t have your coffee without milk - go for macchiato. Same principle as cappuccino- espresso with a splash of foamy milk but it’s absolutely fine to have it anytime of the day.

❌ 2 - Don’t expect having early dinner.

Italians are late eaters. That’s why all local, traditional Italian restaurants start serving dinner at least at 7:30pm

Super travel to Italy tip: never choose the restaurant if the menu outside is in English. It’s usually a tourist trap - higher price for pretended to be traditional food

❌ 3 - DO NOT ORDER ANY OF THOSE:
Pasta with meatballs
Pizza with pineapple
Pizza with chicken
Those dishes do not exist in Italy. So please do not insult the Italians by ordering them.

Also when you order pizza in Italy you don’t usually share it with your friends. You order 1 pizza for yourself!

❌ 4 - DO NOT WEAR FLIP FLOPS IN BIG CITIES in ITALY

better don’t wear flip flops when you are in Rome or Milano.

They are for the seaside only! Seaside type of shoes. Period.

❌ 5 - DON’T WEAR Sandals WITH Socks

Sandals with socks is one of the worst things to be wearing in Italy. It’s considered to be no taste and again all fashion rules.

❌ 6 - No open legs and shoulders

When visiting churches in Italy you must be dressed appropriately and it is not possible to enter with clothes as if you were at the beach.

Remember general rules of visiting those gorgeous churches in Italy:
Legs and shoulders must be coves
Backpack, bulky handbags, hats must be removed

❌ 7 - DON’T EXPECT BRANDED, DESIGNER CLOTHING TO BE CHEAP IN ITALY

The prices for those brands are standardised and remain pretty much the same for every country where those brands have their shops.

❌ 8 - DON’T SPEAK LOUD in English thinking that Italians will understand you better.

They won’t. And it looks so funny for the locals when I a native English speaker is talking so loud like literally screaming and also making lots of movements with their hands.

If English is the only language you speak it is absolutely fine, nothing is wrong about it.
But! Speak slowly. And try using most common words.

❌ 9 - DO NOT GO TO ITALY WITHOUT LEARNING BASIC WORDS AND PLEASES

Knowing simple words like buongiorno — good day! Buonasera - good evening, knowing the difference between buongiorno and globally famous Italian ciao and where you should use one or another - will already make your trip much more pleasure.

❌ 10 - DON’T LIMIT YOUR TRIP TO ITALY BY VISITING ROME - FLORENCE- VENICE ONLY

Italy has so many interesting places to explore! All those little towns and small villages. They are similar and totally different at the same time.
