was in italy a few months ago rome was ok venice was ok florence was the best. started off a bit weird, we got off at a train stop outside the center and it looked a little ghetto. pity about the sinkhole, has it been fixed? didn't have time for milan or anything in the south got addicted to pic related

>we got off at a train stop outside the center and it looked a little ghetto Rifredi? why tho? did you have accomodation near there? you could've stayed on the the same train and get to central station in less than five minutes same for Campo di Marte >pity about the sinkhole, has it been fixed? lel a real shame, that's what you get when you give the administration of public goods (in this case the aqueduct) in the hands of some moron friend of a friend >got addicted to pic related and rightfully so! easy drink that you can get at home for cheap, in the summer it can keep you alive never tried, but the mall near my home has it
glad you had a nice experience, in Italy we may have many shortcomings but hospitality isn't one of them I would recommend to not visit big cities during summer because it's becoming unbearably hot

>Rifredi yeah that was it, we eventually got on another train and went to central. either we bought the wrong ticket from Rome, or we just got off too early. when we got off in Rifredi we were a little confused, a local who told us we had to catch a bus, so we walked around for a bit, met another tourist who had been waiting 45 minutes for a taxi, then finally someone else told us we could just catch a train to central haha
are you from Florence? that was by far the best part of the trip. Rome seemed a bit too busy, and Venice too touristy. We were in Florence maybe a week before the sinkhole thing, loved the atmosphere and food.
I'd love to go back and visit Milan, Bologna, and the south.
Benjamin Hall
I live in a town near Florence but I studied there and I know the city very well funny thing, when I went to uni I had to catch the train every morning and Rifredi was the station where I get off, there are a lot of universities near there, at least six of the biggest departments if you liked Florence I think you'll appreciate Bologna too, it's a very nice city have you been to Pisa too?
Lucas Adams
I'm from Milan and honestly just come here for a day or two if you want, there's not much to see, Como lake, Bergamo or Mantova are all worth a visit if you're in the area though.
In the South I recommend Sicily, the southern tip of Puglia (Ionic coast is best) and the Amalfi coast.
Henry Turner
>have you been to Pisa too? nah, we only had time for Rome, Florence and Venice.
thanks

What are some patrician films? Ive been into fellini and pasolini lately. Very comfy. What are some good shit?
if you tell me a genre, or someone you like, your broader tastes, I may be able to give you more specific recommendations
Ryder Sanchez
my nigger, my favorite ghibli movie.
Henry Mitchell
this movie has in it the most patrician Italian actress of all time too, not the same stale meme milk-cows like Loren or Magnani that every pleb like to spew about
Gabriel Clark
I'm learning Italian on duolingo lads any tips/ other sites you recommend?
Duolingo is shit for anything else than occasional practice, you need real people to study and converse with

Are the differences in the regional dialects big?
Easton King
kinda, yes, a Sicilian most likely won't fully understand a Venetian speaking in his dialect at a normal pace, and viceversa but I'd say they are generally intelligible, at least in the peninsula
