ABOUT ME

Hello there, my name is Giuseppe. Well, what can I tell you about myself . I am a cheerful and friendly. I love travelling and meeting new people because I feel that I am a citizen of the world. I like to talk about everything such as policy, trips, movies, religions and so on. In addition to that I like to play sports especially beach volley&tennis. I like hanging out along with my friends, newcomers or alone because I don't like to stay at home hooked on tv exept for some sport matches!

AN INSIDER'S GUIDE TO ITALIAN MIND

1 - Being Italian is a full-time job.

2 - Italy is the only workshop in the world that can turn out both Leonardo and Berlusconis.

3 - Our passion for beauty is in danger of becoming our number one defect because it prevents us from choosing what is good. That's the first of our weak point.

4 - If you want to understand Italy, forget the guidebooks. Study theology.

5 - People say we are intlligent. It's true. The problem is that we want to be intelligent all the time.

6 - In Italy rules are not obeyed as they are elsewhere. We think it's an insult to our intelligence to comply with a regulation. Obedience is boring.

7 - We are consummate professionals of culinary consumption. No one else in Europe eats the way we do.

8 - Italians want to look inside a table lamp, touch a suitcase, listen to an explanation, sniff a carpet or sneak an olive and talk about the flavour. That's one reason why e-commerce hasn't taken off in Italy. For italians, buying has to be a tactile experience. Physical perceptions are also part of the Catholic liturgy, in which the senses support the spirit.

9 - If we had Scottish weather in Italy, there would have been several revolutions.

10 - Italians prefer to drink, not to get drunk. Italians like being merry but vomiting on pavement is not considered the high point of Saturday evening, as often is north of the Alps.

11 - Around an Italian table, people reason, argue and learn to defend (or change) their points of view. Knowing how to behave in company, behaving politely and communicating easly are substantial qualities.

12 - Italian family is a bank Loans for first homes almost invariably come from parents. There are no formalities, no interest and quite often no obligation to repay the capital. It's an alternative to premature adult debt.

13 - Invasive Italian parents produce "mammoni", mother-fixated children afraid to fend for themselves.

14 - In Northen Europe, bedrooms are bastions of anarchy in well-ordered societies; in Italy, they are an orderly refuge in a land of chaos.

15 - It is in the bathroom that we seek ab(so)lution from our sins. There is no other explanation for the amount of time we spend there.

16 - An italian bar is a place where you can clinch a deal, sort out an evening, start a new working relationship or end an affair over an espresso. You have to start here if you want to understand the piazza/square. And you can't be in hurry. The piazza will tell you all sorts of stories, in its own good time.

17 - Lots of Italians like to look out of window, especially in summer. It's not a waste of time, nor is it morbid curiosity. The window is a way of keeping an eye on the territory and a lifestyle. Dates, engagements, meetings, partings, weddings, funerals, comedies, tragedies, expectations, disappointments, the mysteries of passing and the consolation of recurrence are all there.

18 - Italians likes to see people's outfits/haircuts/make-up, partly because there's something new every day.

19 - Outside schools, bars and restaurants, the pavements is the appointed venue to practise of hanging out : reflect on life, nibble a snack and observe the world. This form of hanging out is a fascinating Italian habit. It's the anticipation of pleasure and demands a certain skill. That's why Italians generate passion and frustration but not desperation.

20 - In an Italian small town we want a professionally made coffee and a proper pizza.Italians want a couple of streets to stroll down, an avenue to jog along, a pool to swim in and a cinema for a bit of entertainment. Italians want a new school and an old theatre house. Italians want doctors and lawyers who can traslate abstract concepts into our dialect. We want all these things and in our small towns we have them. Now you will understand why so many italians say they are dissatisfied with Italy but could not live anywhere else or miss it dreadfully if they do.

21 - Machiavelli said that there is a superior good for which we are legitimate to sacrificate something. Honesty, in many cases. Objectivity, in others. That's why the concept of punishment is not very Italian. Amnesty, even more than absolution, is our banner.

22 - Italy is a land of people who like being together. Italians socialise easly and use that ability to establish relationships. This is a good thing, until relationships form between controllers and the controlled. That's when the problems start. That's why some scandals and other great Italian disasters came about.

23 - Only in Italy does there exsist an expression " to make a good figure" - which is not quite the same thing as "making a good impression". Well, Italians like nice gestures so much they prefer them to good behaviour. Gestures gratify but behaving takes an effort.
