    when I was a teen I saw a group of Italians in London repeatedly stepping into the road on a zebra crossing just to make the cars stop for them. it's like they were amazed the cars would actually stop to let them cross. I was impressed by their amazement as I had previously just assumed the pedestrian crossing rule was the same everywhere in europe. lucky i didnt visit italy or france first cos I'd have been run over on day one.

    As an Italian, I deeply love my Country and its absolutely fantastic history and culture. That said, I think that that background helped me appreciate Great Britain even more: it's a great Country and every time I visited, I've always felt at home, never intimidated. I'm SO very happy when I casually meet Brits in Italy, as well as other foreigners: it's an honour and pride to see people around the world come here and appreciate what we have. Hope to be in UK very soon, a good place to be, really!

Then I learned it rains a lot in England and that the English love tea, which I thought was heavenly (not knowing what English tea tasted like). So I studied English as a hobby, watching BBC ESL programs. My favorite was the series « Walter and Connie » which was about a charming young couple, much like Katie and Matteo, except Walter and Connie were fictional characters played by actors, whereas Katie and Matteo are very real. Katie reminds me why I used to like the English so much.

    The British have two souls, the organized and polite one of the good people and the drunk and violent one of the pub-goers. A big difference between Italians and British is the consumption of alcohol, it is difficult to be friends with them when their idea of fun is to go to pubs to drink alcohol and maybe get drunk. Then I agree that in general they are nice people and anything but introverted, but it is really difficult to reconcile their love for beer with the Italian education which teaches to drink little and only during meals and which misjudges drunks and those who overindulge in drinking alcohol.

      Things are changing, thankfully, many are going teetotal, not drinking alcohol. There is a high level of excessive drinking, but, like smoking, eating animals and eating processed foods, it is becoming a lifestyle choice many are leaving behind.
      I am always dismayed by the thugs who go abroad to get as drunk and aggressive as they can, please don't think we are all like that. And most of us, 83% did not vote to leave the EU.

      Everybody speaks like this, in every country. You may think that people in YOUR country speak more slowly, but this is a false impression, due to the fact that you speak that language and thus understand everything. Some languages (Italian, Greek, Japanese, Vietnamese. etc.) sound as if they are spoken faster than others, but this is just because there are more syllables per second in those languages than in, for example, English or German or Russian, but on the other hand, the second group of languages have more consonant clusters, and so the average number of phonemes uttered per second turns out to be roughly the same.

    io penso che il primo a congratularsi della nostra vittoria agli europei con me è stato proprio un mio amico britannico, quindi i tifosi buoni li hanno anche loro come li abbiamo noi. Io poi ho sempre amato il rock e le mie band preferite sono praticamente quasi tutte venute da la. Anche loro hanno una storia lunga, la passione per l'auto...e anche se non sono più nella comunità europea per me rimarranno sempre fratelli europei. Forse dovremmo impararare quacosa da loro (l'organizzazione, lavoro, rispetto per il prossimo) e loro qualcosa da noi (cibo, calorosità, sportività da parte della tifoseria)...la mia opinione è positiva ovviamente e spero di visitare presto la terra della regina!

      Britain’s Roman Legacy-by Penelope Rance
      They came, they conquered and their lasting effect on Britain is still visible to this day. From ancient forts, roads and walls, to villas, palaces and spas, discover Britain’s Roman legacy.
      Technology, architecture, language, government, town planning - even a sense of national identity. The depth of the Roman influence on the British Isles was such that it survives to this day, seemingly unmatched by that of any of the invading forces that followed them. But then, the majority of those invaders, and the subsequent ruling elites, wanted nothing better than to be Roman themselves.
      These heirs to the Roman ideal - Saxons, Danes, Normans, Plantagenets, Tudors, Georgians and Victorians - all tried to establish Britain as part of a wider empire, drawing on the example set by those first imperial overlords.

    Penso che gli Italiani sono elegante, e di altezza troppo, non so se vero. Adoro Italia e Italiani :)

    Me and my wife went to rome, it was beautiful and the people were amazing, the one thing we had a problem with was transport, we got on a bus bought a ticket and we got fined by the police who came on the bus to check tickets, £90 fine on the first day, apart from that the people are beautiful and smiley ☺️

    I knew a guy from Milan, and what he said about the people from southern Italy was shocking!

    Essendo americano, direi che in generale i britannici sono gentili, aperti, avventurosi, e simpaticissimi. Ci sono stato 5 o 6 volte e questo è quello che ho visto.

      Beh, ho basato la mia opinione ( un po’ edulcorata !) sul fatto che ho lavorato con molti inglesi anni fa. Ho partecipato a molte conferenze a Londra e ho sempre avuto delle esperienze positive. Mi rendo conto che può essere un ambiente un po’ artificiale! Adesso sono pensionato.. forse le cose sono cambiate!
      Volevo aggiungere che non capisco il loro senso d’umorismo alle volte ma oltre questo..brava gente!
      Scusate il mio italiano.
