    One of the things I use as a short cut or hack is to put an infinitive verb after "Posso". It's a way to communicate without conjugating the verb. "Posso entrare"? "Posso mangiare"? "Posso camInare"?

    In preparation for our trip to Italy last fall I booked any museums and tours online that we wanted to visit. I had dinner reservations booked for most evenings. (I looked up restaurants by city and how Italians rated them.) I booked our train trips on line from home. I am not even familiar with how trains work at home so in Florence I ask at the train station info desk and the lady wrote down all of our train numbers and platforms. (We took the slower trains to better enjoy the scenery). Luckily I did ask because TranItalia did not mention that we had a short bus ride to connect between two small towns on our way to Ravenna. On our return trip to Rome I ask at the counter in Rimini and the gentleman printed out a list of all our stops, train numbers and platforms. Do be prepared to walk a lot in Rome. Also small boutique hotels are the way to go.

      Agree with your recommendation of boutique hotels. I think there should be a movement away from air B and B. With overtourism ruining the real experience of many popular cities, the conversion of real living spaces for real residents is a big problem

    This was a great episode! Thanks! I have two questions and some suggestions. My wallet was stolen in Venezia last summer. Do you have any suggestions about where or how safely carry money and credit cards? Everyone seems to suggest not carrying a backpack and I would rather not but when you are traveling at a time when the temperature is variable what do you do with your jacket and sweater when you are not wearing it? Two pieces of advice. They always say to make copies of your credit cards. You need to save photos of everything in your wallet. I had the credit card numbers but not my driver’s license number which you need to replace your license: Ticket machines are a great opportunity for pickpockets, if you are traveling with someone have them face outwards looking for anything suspicious while the other person uses the ticket machine. Vorrei tornare in Italia.

      Also, because of their orientation, it's better to visit the important churches in the morning. The light is amazing, and often those big churches are not lit well, so in the afternoons, it's very dark.

    It's so funny - I'm an absolute beginner in Italian but I speak/understand French and Spanish, and even on this video, I understood lots of what you were saying. It's like it was a mix of both French and Spanish words that were just slightly adjusted and with an Italian accent.

    L’estate scorsa ero su un traghetto dalla Grecia a Bari e ho cominciato parlare italiano con la gente. (Era stressante…) E poi ho incontrato un ragazzo e abbiamo parlato un sacco di cose e alla fine siamo diventati amici. Quindi devo dire che, parlare italiano nell’Italia è sempre utile hahah :)

I also watch a lot of TH-cam videos that tell me tips about the cities I want to travel to, what you can do there and how to get there, I also watch your channel to be prepared for the next Italy trip. Last year I was in Rome, in a few weeks I want to travel to Florence, Pisa and Bologna. 😁

    We are traveling to Emilia-Romagna next week. We too have planned everything online in advance. Why take a tour of the Teatro Reggio when you can check the schedule and go to a performance? I love your videos because you teach in Italian. So many others spend minutes explaining what they will teach in English before they speak a word of Italian.

    Numero uno è una bugia classica. Certo che il mio italiano non era perfetto durante il viaggio (dicembre scorso), ma non era neanche "due frasi". E nondimeno quasi tutti gli italiani avevano solo due modi: velocità piena (con forse anche parecchi dialettalismi) e inglese appena mi vedevano in difficoltà. Quando viaggerò di nuovo in Italia (forse l'anno prossimo), vedremo come andrà.

    The first time my wife and I visited Italy (a long time ago), we first took some Italian classes. They were very enjoyable, and very useful as it turned out. It is true that Italians appreciate efforts to speak their language, so as well as making everyday interactions more effective it also improved the "simpatico" effect.
    But there were still some stumbles. In Rome, we had to pick up some photos. I saw a police officer near the Vatican and asked:" 'Scusi, dove posso trovare l'ufficio L'Osservatore Romano?" The response was "Buon giorno." I responded "Buon giorno! Dove posso trovare..." I had forgotten the mandatory polite greeting. But I never did that again on our many return trips to Milan, Lago Como, Lago Maggiore, Verona, Modena, Venice, Bologna, Florence, Montepulciano, Ravella, Amalfi, Sorrento, Naples, and of course Rome.

    Unfortunately Trentitalia does not make their app available to either Canadians or Australians (at least for Apple users). We have to book our tickets on their website instead. (This is not the case with Italo.)

    Per me un consiglio importante sarebbe di prendere del tempo per esplorare sin plano. Le città italiane sono tresori di posti maravigliosi che costano niente ma riempiono l'alma e il cuore, e anche danno una migliore impressione della vita italiana. I libri e video sempre mostrano i posti "cliché" pero c'è un sacco di luoghi che sono più emozionante che quelli. (perdona il mio italiano, sto imparando)
