Italy is one of the most beautiful and interesting countries on the planet. Its magnificent alpine landscapes, olive groves and vineyards, its long coastline with an abundance of beaches, many historical and cultural monuments, world-class museums, warm climate and, finally, amazing Italian cuisine - all this attracts many visitors from abroad.
Instructions
Step 1
"Italians are an expansive nation!" - this was the explanation given to the police by the guide in the good old film "The Incredible Adventures of Italians in Russia" about the disorder caused by the Italian tourists. Indeed, Italians are characterized by emotionality, they often behave noisily, gesticulate animatedly when talking. They have a habit of "making an elephant out of a fly," that is, they may well arrange a furious argument over some trifle. But representatives of other southern peoples, for example, the Greeks, behave in exactly the same way.
Step 2
Italians are very musical, appreciate the ability to sing well, and sing willingly themselves whenever possible. They are proud of their history and culture. Moreover, Italy is actually an open-air museum: there are so many historical monuments dating back to the era of the ancient Romans and the Middle Ages!
Step 3
Italian men are fluent in the art of beautifully courting. Few can match them in their ability to compliment women, be gallant and prudent. At the same time, many Italian men, when dealing with ladies, are rather selfish, capricious, have an unreasonably high opinion of their merits, are prone to excessive (sometimes theatrical, "public") expressions of jealousy. Apparently, this is due to the fact that very often Italians marry quite late - at the age of 30 or at an older age, and before that they live with their parents, surrounded by maternal love and indulgence.
Step 4
Family for Italians is sacred, and their love for children truly knows no boundaries. A child in an Italian family is everyone's favorite, darling and adored. There are, of course, exceptions, but very rarely.
Step 5
Most Italians limit themselves to breakfast with a strong cup of coffee, with a maximum of a small bun. Their lunch is also quite light, especially in summer, which is quite hot in Italy. But the Italians' dinner is very hearty, plentiful, consisting of several dishes, the first of which is traditionally the famous pasta - pasta made from durum flour (for example, spaghetti) with various sauces and additives. It is during dinner that leisurely conversations are conducted with the family, various issues are resolved, so it often lasts for 1-2 hours.
