The enthusiasm of the people of Sicily, Italy, is a passionate and unrestrained one. In Rome, the enthusiasm you see is a refined routine. For example, when you go to a restaurant, the waiter will recommend two special dishes for the day. When you ask what they are, he will tell you about the volcano beef and swan roasted fish... The prices are all on the menu. Each dish is about 25 euros, not bad, right? When you're halfway through the meal, they will bring you a glass of ice wine, telling you it's complimentary, and shake hands with you... As for the swan roasted fish, they will enthusiastically ask if you need help opening it. I firmly say no, but they will still help you open it as if they didn't hear me... Let's talk about the bill. When you pay, they will tell you it's 293 euros, plus a 10% service charge, and fish is charged by weight (the fish is at most 1.5 pounds, and the beef is only the size of a fist, definitely not 2 pounds), and the water before the meal is 10 euros. Also, when taking a taxi, make sure to use the meter... And there are a lot of pickpockets there, so be careful of women wearing scarves. Even if you put your bag in front of you, it won't help. They will use the scarf to block your line of sight... They usually work in groups... Even so, Italy is still very, very beautiful. It feels like walking in a historical museum, and shopping is also very enjoyable... Wishing friends a pleasant journey ?
Italy Q&A
Not tailgating, don't speed, speeding fines are heavy, I saw the police officer's calculation basis for issuing tickets (unfortunately got caught), the starting price is $50, plus an additional $20 for every mile over the speed limit, simply put, if you speed by 10 miles, the fine is $250, this is the calculation basis for speeding by 16 miles or less, I don't know about 16 miles or more. However, American police are still very good, I was speeding by 9 miles, being polite, flattering, and only got fined $60. You can only pay the fine online after returning to China (three weeks after the ticket was issued), the ticket needs to be recognized by the court before the government can collect the fine, my friend said that on the day of the court hearing, if the police officer who issued the ticket does not show up (probability of 90%), the ticket will be invalid, there is a big gap in my feeling. A special reminder, American police are like ghosts, you never know when they will appear behind your car ?
