What a great find. Great content. We should have. a capucchino one of these days

I plan on renting a car in Florence and driving around the Tuscan countryside. My only worry is knowing where and when I'm allowed to drive around Florence since the city center is usually ZTL. The rental company is within these limits so I imagine that I'm already in the ZTL?

Thanks for the tip. I’m going to Italy next month for my birthday and this really helps if you have any more tips. Send them my way Gracias.

Thanks David, We are planning to drive from Germany to Rome. We are four people, and we are considering renting a car. Since we also want to visit the beach and the sea, what would you suggest? Is it worth it, or can we visit the beach and the sea using public transportation.?

Question? I'll be in Rome in mid September and I've never been before. My wife and I would like to rent a car to drive from Rome to Florence instead of the train. The only rental options I see are at the airport. Is that correct? Do you have any suggestions on where to rent a car? FYI, your videos are awesome!! Just what I needed as a first-timer in Italy.

Any tips specifically driving from Rome to Tuscany?

Been driving here a few days now, straight from Fiunicino airport to the Abruzzo province. It’s been no problem for the most part. Some other points: 1). If you don’t have them at home, make sure you know how round-abouts work. 2). Just me being stupid, but when you want to pay the highway toll at the checkpoint via credit card, your card goes into the same slot that you just inserted the highway ticket. That messed me up. The English language button didn’t seem to work as well which didn’t help. 3). If you don’t want to pay tolls it may be possible to drive to your destination for free, but it’ll take longer. Check with your navigation app for possible alternate routes. They can be nice relaxing drives through nice little towns. 4). Double check your free mileage allowance with the rental car people here in comparison to your booking/confirmation. They told me “unlimited km” at Fiumicino when I picked up the car,”, but then I asked her why my contract with National says 1750 km free. She then confirmed I was in fact right, and it wasn’t unlimited. I think overall it’s good to rent a car here if you’re travelling a lot within the country, especially if you’re in a group of 3-4 people. Hauling luggage in and out of train stations and trains sucks. You’re also not worried about pick picketers and all that crap. I didn’t notice the honking thing at all, but I never drove in Rome.

Thank you for making this video😊

My bags I carry are decoy bags. I hide everything under my clothes

If your ancestor has “first papers” in US but has not completed naturalization after having their child does that prevent eligibility?

How much pharmacist assistant can make in Italy?

Lake garda to lake como is it worth renting a car

If these are bills in Rome, I assume smaller cities are ridiculously cheap? I mean 900/mo for a 2 bedroom apartment in Rome seems crazy cheap. I assumed Rome was like every other major developed country world city and it would be several thousand per month. Wow.😊

Hey David a question about my eligibility, My Great Great Grandfather never became a U.S. Citizen and, and my great grandfather was born in italy, but eventually naturalized at 19. Do you think I still have a chance?

Do you tip the gas station attendants? What is expected there? Picking up a 1976 lancia fulvia soon and going to give it one last romp around Italy before shipping home!

Hi David! Great video 😁 to answer your graffiti question: my husband is Roman through and through, he grew up in Garbatella. He, like many other kids around the age of 14, started graffitiing as a way to express themselves. It’s a sort of emotional release, a way to say “I EXIST, I MATTER”. As they get older they realise it’s wrong to do this, and I know many from his graffiti group have turned this illegal art form into a full time job. One is a graphic designer, another wants to help children with emotional issues through art and psychology, another now works for the Comune di Roma thanks to his art! If they ever get together to paint, they seek out “Legal walls” aka a wall that has been designated by a neighbourhood as a free for all. Elderly people even walk past and enquire with curiosity about what they’re spray painting 😅 They all agree that the unnecessary tagging and spray painting in nice places is ugly, but it’s something mainly teenagers do whilst going through stuff. If more “legal walls” were allocated, maybe there’d be less of it in public spaces 🙌🏻 Hope that answers your question! Take care

So is the "full coverage" through discover cars actually full coverage? The price seems too good to be true. I can't find any info/terms on their website. What's the catch?

Ok, so my great grandfather born in italy came to the US and had 7 children. If he became a US citizen say after the 5th child, would that mean only the first five and their descendants would be eligible? My grandfather was the last born. Or are you saying that he just had to have had his first child in the US prior to obtaining US citizenship and then all his children would be eligible?

When you talk about how much Italians make per month - is that before- or after-taxes amounts?

Stoves and ovens between American and Italian kitchens, would be interesting to add.

How do we get the car that we reserved? Every time we received a different model vehicle. I’m just wondering what the trick is.

I have rented twice out of Venice airport. On the recommendation of a friend I used Europcar booked through their website. First class service both times, fair price, and no nasty surprises when returning the car. I have read reviews of cheaper companies that ding you when you return the car. I also used Europcar in Marseille France with the same experience. Regardless of which company you use, ALWAYS take numerous photos with your cell phone before you even unlock the car. Point to every scratch and dent that may be pre-existing on the car as you snap photos. Include the rental agent in the photos if they come out with you to inspect the car. Also, open the hood and make sure the brake fluid reservoir and oil dipstick show full. If the car comes with a GPS, find out how to change the language to English before leaving the rental car lot. Set the "home" button to the rental car lot, so you don't even have to plug in the address when returning the car.

I'm in England. My Nonna was Southern Italian. I am going to Italy in a few weeks will speak with local police re immigration

amico, conversare significa che tu dici una cosa, e uno a un certo punto ne dice un altra, non credo che gli americani conoscano la forma dialogica, che è una forma di esposizione LETTERARA e FILOSFICA: leggiti Il Caffè di Pietro Verri, e capirai che le conversazioni non sono ESPOSIZIONI complete di un tizio della sua teoria di questo o di quello, ma sono qualcosa che, dato uno spunto, si corregge con un altro spunto, finché questo secondo spunto non ne incontra un terzo. Leggiti Goldoni, cazzo. Impara che cos'è l'arte della conversazione, perché non ne hai la più pallida idea. LEGGI.

Nice program. David. Thank you 🎉

“Thoughts of violence”… bahahahaha! Yes. I have them 10 times a day. With my bambino’s…spoiled grown Italian sons. Stunads!🤣🤣🤣🇮🇹🇺🇸

My maternal great-grandfather was born in Recale Italy. I actually have his naturalization certificate. It's dated 1913. He was born in 1880. Does anyone know if this makes me ineligible for citizenship?

But hwat if i want to? can I do it?

About road pavement you should visit southern california, be sure to drive a SUV with good shock absorbers. About lines you need to wait till the asphalt sets in which might take a week or so, they do the same here in SoCal, not sure where you saw the line being added right away. Maybe they had a fast curing asphalt or what not

When you vote you put an X on the candidate right ? there you go

If somebody calls you ask him/her if they speak English 99% of the time they'll hang up on you

Uan cosa che ho sempre notato di voi americani, e che vi adatte molto, sapete farlo bene, stare al mondo, vedere il meglio di ogni situazione ! Ecco siete molto flexible ! E non isolazionisti ma aperti al mondo. Una qualita' che si acquista quando si lascia casa a 20 anni, sei solo e devi svegliarti e imparare a stare al mondo interagire con gli altri ! E bello vivere cosi Poi credo che tanti americani sono crtici verso l america, finche non vanno all estero e capiscono che voi siete spesso fortunati !tanti privilegi li date prr scontati.... Non vi manca nulla al vostro paese, a parte la storia e i monuementi 🙂

Grande ! Gli USA e l Italai dovrebbero cooperare piu, su tutti i livelli, imo ! ( Ma anche l europa tutta e Usa)

1:21 excellent point 😊👍

As somebody put it, if you can drive in Rome properly, you can drive anywhere, you are a black belt driver

I am for the fifth time in Rome right now, its very alive love the pine trees and the surroundings are also very nice.

Very cute😂

DAJE!

What do you use to edit your videos?

Thank you. Not going to drive.

I think it's incredibly important for your children to know that they are both Italian and American. Try to maintain some American traditions so they can learn. Growing up in Australia to Italian parents, we did the sauce, the sausages and made our own wine. We grew up in a bilingual household and as much as my siblings and I disliked the extra work associated with these tasks, as an adult I am grateful to my parents and nonni for maintaining our culture.

I found your “practical vs aesthetic” comparison very interesting because for me it appears exact opposite from what I have observed-but it could be because of my frame of reference.

Thanks for the video David! I wish you did more videos. 🙂
