  • Rome is Las Vegas for thousands of nuns from all over the world. Where else in the world would you find department stores that specialize in 100 different habits, no it's not called A Wimper for all seasons. Anyway, you will see sisters in all shapes and sizes from all over the world during your stay.

    How To: Tips for Coffee

  • When you order a coffee it is normal to leave 5 or 10 cents as a tip with the receipt when you put it down on the counter. 5 or 10 cents is enough, as untiol 3 years ago it was nromal to leave 100 or 200 lire, so it is fine. Don't start big tipping as it only makes people then expect those big fat tips all the time. In Rome it is more a courtesy than an expected sort of thing. In Florence, you almost never see anyone tip for a caffee.
