1) To get out of the bank, you press the button. Screaming like a banshee and throwing yourself against the glass will not only make you look like a lunatic, but also indicate to the random passerbys that you are indeed, a tourist.
2) Cobblestones are very very slippery, especially when they are wet.
3) Do not get the Bidet and the Toilet confused with each other.
4) Vespas are The Devil on wheels, and crossing the street is always a near death experience.
5) Do not take for granted that the shower head will stay on the wall.
6) Gelatto is just about the best thing on this earth. Eat as much as possible.
7) Wi-fi and hot water are blessings.
8) Do not be alarmed if the toilet's flush sounds like a teakettle going off. This is normal.
9) Watch out for dog poop in the middle of the sidewalk.
10) If we were living back in the days when Ostia Antica was a living and breathing city, taking a bath would be considered a sin. The smellier you were the closer you were with God, hence the phrase "the smellier the better".
