Italy weather by region and season: Alpine north, the humid Po valley, the Mediterranean coasts and the hot south, plus acqua alta in Venice and what the scirocco does.
Money in Italy: cards and cash, what the coperto on your bill is, why you should always pay in euros at a card machine, and the tourist tax your accommodation collects.
What to pack for Italy: shoes that survive cobblestones and steps, clothing that meets church dress rules, layers for stone interiors, and the type L plug adapter.
Getting around Italy: high-speed trains and two competing operators, why regional tickets must be validated, what a ZTL is and why it fines drivers months later, and city transport.
