Accommodation strategy
In Italy, cash transaction with the landlord is a common way to rent a house. Choose a double room or a single room as needed, including utilities 150-300 euros. Note that the telephone bill in Italy is relatively expensive, and you need to install another broadband to access the Internet. Students can buy quilts and tableware later, and the suitcases are limited. Try to choose a place close to the school and walk.
Matters needing attention in time difference
At present, the time difference with China is 6 hours (daylight saving time) and 7 hours (winter time). Don't miss the important moment!
interpersonal skills
3G mobile phones can also be used in Italy, but the telephone company should be consulted first. Long-distance telephone cards cost at least 5 euros and can be used for 3 hours.
Traffic strategy
Cars and trains must buy tickets in advance, and you must swipe your card on the Huang Ka before boarding. The train timetable divides the departure and arrival times, don't make a mistake!
Etiquette and custom tips
In Italy, when eating, you should use the right knife and the left fork, hold your arm, and don't put it on the table. Knife and fork crossed = not finished, neatly placed = full. Avoid lending money to Italians, because they may not pay back. Be careful when inviting coffee and ice cream, which means further intimacy. Ask people for directions, and they may give multiple answers. Don't be too condescending and too modest. It is better to express yourself directly. Compassion for the weak is an eternal virtue.
