the only people in the world who hate Italy are... Italians. We have a culture of complaining about our country which is absolutely overwhelming

thanks, this is helpful !

Sincere condolences ❤. Prayers.

Ma cosa fate qui in italia, andatevene via. Preferiamo le russe!!! Russe venite qua per piacere

Thanks for this video, very informative! I'm 2nd gen American-Italian and both sets of grandparents are from Italy but I did not know about the 1948 cases and if they were born before Italy became a country - luckily I still fit that criteria so definitely would like to get dual citizenship.

What’s the name of the car company?

Hi Dave great video. thank you. I rented twice out of Rome. Both times using Ok Mobility. They were excellent. No surprises or hassles what so ever. I'm planning on using Discover Cars, after watching your video and hearing a few other good reports about them. I'm going to using them out of Napoli. The rental company that I will be renting from is called Rental Premium out of the airport. NAP Do you know anything about them. Good?? Bad?? thank you Bernie from Canada

Hi . . we're planning a trip to Italy taking us from Florence, where we will rent a car, and driving to a villa about 20km North of Siena. Do you know if I need an international license or permit to get and operate a rental car?

Great info, very helpful and to the point.

HI DAVID, do u know the Carmosino's that live in Ottawa Canada?? they used to live in Montreal?? Their name is Enzo & Fred

Thank you very much! I bought my plane ticket and rented a car already... glad I bothered to watch this video before I leave lol. You do a great job presenting everything!

I found your channel a few years ago as a "watered down Italian" from Philly who wanted to learn more about traveling in Italy and I've taken so much of your advice the last two times I visited. God bless your father, mom, and family in this difficult time.

What's the name for the one where an individual pretends to have a massive penis and waves his hands up and down to simulate masturbation? I saw this a few times at Italian football matches. One guy spent the entire first half, doing this to away fans and not even watching the match.

Hello. I came across this video looking for tips for driving in Italy. We rented a car for 4 days to go outside city and go more countryside and it’s been an adventure. I’ve only just been driving in between Milan and Verona. Trying to find only blue zones to park, it seems people go 20-40+ over posted speed limit on major highways. Fuel here because it’s by liter so comparing to US ends up being about $7/gal. The people not knowing which lane they want to be in. The amount of roundabouts and doesn’t seem like there is a system and people go where they want and then switch lanes. Seems like there is always tolls if you want to drive on major highways and it’s just a thing they do here. Thanks for video

I am Italian-Brazilian and I would like to ask Italian-Americans what is the main reason for leaving the USA. In my case, leaving Brazil for Italy or another country in Europe makes sense due to the lack of prospects in my home country. However, you were born in the United States, a country that, in theory, offers more opportunities. So what drives this change?

If im a foreign on vacations and I get a fine, I got to pay it?

Hi David. American 🇺🇸 citizen with a Tuscan war bride mom living in Taiwan 🇹🇼. Do you know of any downsides of getting my Italian citizenship, such as tax obligations? I’ve fulfilled my American 🇺🇸 military service obligations long ago and I’m 1000 years too old to be drafted in Italy 🇮🇹! Is there anything else I need to know about? Grazie!

😢😢😢so much loss You’re motions are tacit and understood..x

Great tip on the driving permit! 👍🏻

Hi, so my great mother was from Italy but it was a part of Italy that was under Austrian rule at the time and is now part of Croatia but my mom and her mother have always known their heritage to be Italian. Do you think I’d still be able to get citizenship in this situation

Hi David! Nice videos! I love them😍 I am an Italian living in Dublin, and most of the differences you notice about USA/Italy, I just feel they're the same here😂. By the way, just a small thing to correct, actually in the Northern parts of Italy they have a washing machine that also dries clothes!

Thoughts on Santa Marinella to live in, near Rome? I know you don't live there but maybe you've been?

Do you need cv to do part time jobs

Thank you for all this valuable information! I want to get my EU passport through descent, my grandmother is Portuguese, she has a EU passport, what is the process to get one, I live in South Africa. -Thank you

Wow!! This is great advice. I thought I had everything down but you gave me more helpful things to add.

Thanks for that

Thank you, your video is the best.

My grandmother was Sicilian, and she had a few superstitions like we couldn't separate from the leader of our group or else we would be disappointed. When cursing someone, she would spit 3 times or flick our necks 3 times like your idc gesture

I am also from Boston married to an Italian and live in Rome ! Best wishes. Contact me if you want to hook up. Augurissimi !

You also want cash at self serving gas stations. Because you can use a card, but they will block around 150 euros for a week

My deepest condolences. And prayers for you and your family.

DAJE!😊

Hi, Dave, Liz and I are just checking in with you - hope you and your family are persevering in faith and strength.

Deepest condolences to you and your family , David . Sending healing prayers to your mother. 🙏

Really appreciate this video! I'm renting a car in Sicily and will be using these tips.

Deepest condolences David.

I wish the very best to your mum as soon as possible. I pray for you to get through this difficult situation. Sorry for your dad's pass. ❤ From Greece to you and family.

Great video, I feel the same way you do, My grandparents were from Spain and my parent’s were born in Cuba and I was born in the United States, but I have a sting connection to my country of origin and I plan on moving to Spain when I retire. I think that it’s absolutely terrific how you made a life for yourself in Italy. God bless you!

Italians use that gesture for "Up yours!" lol

Hi David, I know this is a bit late, but I wanted to offer my sincerest and deepest condolences to you and your family during this difficult time. Your strong Catholic faith and devotion will give you the courage to go on knowing that one day you will see your Dad again. I am going to have a Mass offered for your Dad, and continue to pray for you and your family each day.

I am researching renting a vehicle in Italy (picking up at the Florence airport). So far every agency I have contacted informs me of a requirement that my drivers license must be held for at least 12 months before they will rent me a vehicle. Is this a policy or law for all rentals in Italy?? Can someone confirm this for me please?

I'm about to take my family to Italy, and I'm renting a car. Will the the car rental place offer for me to buy a TellaPass for the toll booths?

Sounds quite like South Africa. I'm still nervous but this video was very helpful with a visit to Italy coming up! Just driving on country roads, that's it!

I’m from the Deep South in Texas and I love different languages

..l..

Stay at home

Fellow Sox fan here. Love the shirt! We will be taking a private transfer from Malpensa Airport to MIlan downtown. Few days later we will be taking a longer transfer from Milan to Lake Como. Not sure if we should tip the drivers and how much. Suggestions? Grazie

Hello. My maternal grandparents came to England from Italy in 1968 but neither ever became British citizens, and my mother is a citizen of both the United Kingdom and Italy from birth (1970). Do you think that I have a case or are my chances null and void?

No,not you David,you re nice usually!Please dont call it soccer.
