Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Guid Elektronisches Buch tell you where the Colosseum is. They do not tell you how to avoid a 200 traffic fine on the way there.You ordered a cappuccino at three in the afternoon and the barista paused. You waited forty minutes for a restaurant bill that was never going to arrive, then paid two euros for something called coperto you were fairly sure was a scam. You drove a rental car through a medieval archway in Florence and received a fine in the mail four months later. Nobody was rude. Nobody said a word. And yet you spent two weeks in Italy feeling the room adjust slightly every time you walked in.This is the social code, not the sightseeing list.Written for first-time visitors and anyone who suspects they got it slightly wrong the first time, Don't Be That Tourist: Italy is a cultural cheat sheet.
