[quote=Anonymous]Be prepared to rebuff beggars outside some churches/cathedrals, often women with infants. Bring Euro coins for the pay toilets. Language is hot or miss. The more a location sees tourists, the more many people will speak some English. Less so in the smaller villages. Learn a few friendly phrases in Italian, to show an interest and sensitivity to the country - be bale to say good morning, afternoon, and evening, thank you, please, do you speak English, excuse me". Just those will help smooth encounters, even if they proceed in English or with the help of a translation app. [/quote]
