    About us:
    In March 2017, Rick and Andrea (confessed Travel Addicts) started a Facebook Group called Travel Addicts as a way to share their travel photos and videos not just with their own respective friend's lists - but with the world. Part of the reason was for bragging rights (I mean, that’s kind of the point of sharing photos, right?), but also to help answer questions to others about the destinations they have visited.
    After inviting some of our friends and family, it grew and grew - and as of June 2019, the group has grown to over 200,000 members! One reason for our success, we believe, is that we have done our best to ensure only high-quality photos and videos get shared, all while limiting the use of commercial content.

    That Italians don't drink cappuccino after noon, is a legend. When I was working in Rome, me and my colleagues always took a cappuccino in a bar after lunch as anybody else there, Italian or not. On the other hand it is very important to wait at the entrance of a restaurant to be seated by the waiter. If a restaurant has a good reputation, the places are usually booked. And it's safer to book in advance by itself to avoid disappointment.

    Hello. Thank you so much. This was very helpful. I am visiting Salerno in 2 weeks time. My father was born there.
    Been to Rome in November. Stayed in a lovely hotel a few minutes away from Trevi Fountain. The food in this area was really nothing "special" but very, very expensive. I am looking forward to Southern Italy. I assume the prices are not as high and the food is much better. I am going to watch your Naples videos now. My best wishes for you two. Wales, UK.

    • @TravelAddictsLife
      @TravelAddictsLife  Před rokem

      Thank you so much! You are right restaurants around the Trevi Fountain are very expensive because they target tourists. Next time go to the Trastevere area that has restaurants where locals eat. 😊food in Napoli is amazing let us know how you like it

  • @thegallivanthropologists

    Agreed. Nice vlog and tips. Biggest thing I love to do when dining anywhere and Italy in specific is to ask for what they specialize in and what their favorite or most local dish. Bear is a culinary anthropologist so this helps. Also, forget the touristy places. meals are always better when locally owned and in neighborhoods. Glad I re-found your channel. Love your style. We are both ecological anthropologists. Bear studies food culture and food production, and I am a sustainability archaeologist. As such, we love to meet and support creators and guides who share the history, culture, food, and nature on social media. Love what you are doing and hope you might like ours too. Cheers! - Turtle

    Hello! Thank you for this informative video. I'm traveling to Italy for the first time, though I have spent a lot of time on Germany and Austria. Is the table etiquette the same through Europe? Fork stays in left hand, cut with right hand... keeping hands by the plate, no hand in lap?
    Thank you!

    Hi there. Do you already have a video for’a foodies guide to Italy?’ My friend says she just wants to “eat her way through Italy.”
    Of course, she can eat anything high calorie & doesn’t gain an ounce! I’m the opposite. 😂

    This is off topic, but I hope you can still help. I don't speak Italian. Will I be able to get around Venice and Rome okay or should I expect problems? I have bad stomach issues and can never finish a meal, am I going to offend the chef/server by not finishing my meal? When we travel, we don't like structure or living by reservations, will this be okay or should we plan reservations? I know tips are "appreciated" but is it common or expected? I'm headed to your tipping video now!

    • @TravelAddictsLife
      @TravelAddictsLife  Před rokem

      Most people that visit Italy don’t speak,Italian you’ll be just fine 😊 you can leave food on the plate no problem, they might ask you if there was something wrong with the food but you can just say you are full. Regarding reservations if you are not looking to go to a specific restaurant you can always find some places with seats

    Every time I hear about the whole no capuccino in the afternoon thing (because it's only for breakfast) it makes me wonder what night owls like myself are supposed to do if they wake up at 1 pm and want to have a capuccino with their dessert, I mean breakfast.... Since I don't drink coffee I never had this issue in Italy but it makes me wonder.
