Italiano Craze

After 1 whole week in Italy... some of the things I observed about Italy were:

Italian will die without coffee
They will drink an extremely "kaw" espresso in the morning, during the morning tea break, after lunch, during the evening tea break, after dinner, and even after supper... I drink one in the morning breakfast and my head is spinning whole day long >.<

Italian eats a lot... I mean A LOT
Yes, there will be bread on the table before meal for you to eat... then there will be the appetizer (which consist of meats, cheese, vegetables and etc), follow my FIRST course which usually is PASTA or spaghetti or rice... and there comes your MAIN course of meat, fish, pork or chicken... you are not finish yet! There are still dessert waiting for you...

The land of house wine
Yes, every town, every city, every village produce their very own taste of wine... get ready to drink wine for every single meal and indulge yourself in their great taste...

Naturale vs Frizzante
You might not know what are these, but I shall tell you they are water. These are the two types of water you will find in everywhere in Italy. Naturale basically is the usual water we drink daily. Frizzante however is gassed water... local people are crazy for Frizzante as they don't like "tasteless" natural water. Well, others usually dislike the slight bitter sour taste of the Frizzante...


Land of GREAT food
When I say great food, I really mean it. Even when you step into a lousy looking stall, you will get very fine food in Italy. This is because they are very particular with what they eat. So, get yourself ready for some weight gain when visiting Italy for all the good pasta, pizza and spaghetti... and there are more than that!

Italian Goal
Football is almost like everything in Italian's life during weekend... very much like EPL for English people. Stadium will get crowded, traffic will jam... it is indeed a festival for them every week to see the football match.

The Italian
Italian are very friendly... with other Italian... with foreigners however is depends on individual. Some are very friendly and will try to approach you even he got no idea what you are saying and you got no idea what they are saying as well... but some are a little "cold"...

Well, that's all I can figure out for the time being. Will update if there's anything else... Ciao!

Leaving home in few minutes time...
Departing from KLIA to Italy soon...
14 hours of flight... sigh... 2 and a half hours to Sabah is already killing me...
Wonder how to spend my 14 hours...
Anyway, another chance to test out my limit...
In my work, in my "freezing point"...
In my life, in my mind...
It's going to be a long whole week in Italy...
