Okay so after being in Torino for about a week now there are a few things that I have discovered about Italy. First of all, if you are walking down the sidewalk, LOOK OUT FOR POOP! They do not pick up their dog’s poop, so it is everywhere! Also, dogs are allowed pretty much everywhere. I have seen them in restaurants, grocery stores, cafes, trains, and the bus. Another thing to know if you ever make your way here, always wear some type of shoes. Even when your in your apartment/hotel the grounds are not very clean. Another interesting fact about Italy is most shops will close in the middle of the day for about 2 hours. This is their time to eat lunch and be with their families. Also in Italy you do not tip. There is always tip/tax included in the price so what you see is what you get. It makes things very easy when it comes to paying because you always know what the total cost of something will be. That’s just a little about Italy and some of their culture.
