Been to Italy so many times. People are real there. In some other countries, people act nice but they keep their distance. Not in Italy.

My wife and I eat Italian usually about once a week! It also happens to be her favorite destination, she spent six weeks, two years in a row there and says the people are fantatsic, the food always fresh and the scenery great. We're going there together in 2007!

Haven't been in Italy for some years now, but I want to go back. My parents and I used Rome as our base and then took day trip and such to Florence, Capri etc. Gotta love Italian tourist guides! They're so enthusiastic, have cute accents when speaking English and keep yelling "take a piiiiicture!" :lol:

I want to go back to Florence. The guide made us rush. I want to go to Venice. Heck, I just want to drive through the country, it's beautiful!

Italy is #1 on my list of "places I'd like to visit outside of the U.S." Can't pinpoint why, really, other than I love the food and culture (as I perceive it from afar).

I don't have a drop of Italian blood in me (that I know of) ... I'm an American mutt made up of mostly German ancestry (with a healthy dose of French Canadian and a dash of Welsh and Spanish).

Italy is evil!

I undid 3 months of dieting in 2 weeks.

The food was sooooo goood, the gelati! the pasta! the coffee!

If you like photography, you have to go to Italy (or europe for that matter). iTs just such a beautiful place.

Tomato sauce destroys my digestive system (the acid maybe?) but I love pizza. Leonardo Da Vinci was a very cool dude - one of my favorite historic figures. But that's about it for me...

Would love to go to Tuscany and spend a week or two just taking photos.
