I agree with you : the food is good in Italy, there are nice places and art is all over. Well it is not all beautiful here, there also are some problems . Have you ever had the "luck " to deal with the Italian bureaucracy ? There are two main goals when you deal with the Italian bureaucracy ( perhaps one of the most complex bureaucracy in the world) : get out alive and stay sane . So here are some tips to survive : - you need to be brave and hardheaded, - you should have a clear idea of what you are looking for - Wear comfortable shoes ( the queues are long and endless ) - Making an ascetic preparation before starting - Eat and drink before going : you know when you start but you do not when you will finish - Be ready for anything - Study the language of bureaucracy to understand the persons working in this sector - Do not be discouraged (NEVER NEVER NEVER)
Once you become aware about all these suggestions, you are ready . The last step is to show you a video that I would define " educational " , the experience of Asterix and Obelix in the twelve labors to get the pass A38 . The reality is absolutely the same!
