This is fooking hilarious!
Especially love the bit on the Italian Army (from what D says there really is beer in the vending machines where he works too). And those gourmet lunches are free-everyday! Still laughing at the hosts quest to repopulate a small Italian village himself. I feel bad for the unassuming lady in the parking lot!
Oh and MAFF-EEE-Yuh.
Fast forward a few minutes at beginning where they are covering S. France and go straight to the Italy part. It’s truly priceless.

I love the host! He’s so funny on Top Gear!
A very interesting video to learn about other culture.

One of my favorite lines, said during the Ms. (elder) Italy contest: The Italians will make any excuse to make a sash. HA!!!

Beer in the vending machines? Ooooh, yea!
I studied Italian litterature at the Unversity of Padua, which is very close to where you live now, and let me say that the University cafeteria had a “soda fountain” for the students with TWO types of wine PLUS BEER!
Yes, the meals given by the Italian government for the college students included wine or beer! Would the University of California do that? No way. So we were all surprised.
Loved the techno song the video had playing as he drove super fast through Italy

Interesting and funny video. I have never seen his travel programs before. I loved when he was cooking up his “fast” food.
Glad you are back blogging again and hope you are enjoying Verona.

In England there are two types of people - those who think that Jeremy Clarkson is a national hero, and those who think that he’s a racist git…. I fall into the first group - even more so having seen that video!!

Hello, I have been reading your blog and have you on my Americans Living In Italy Blog List. Someone who was visiting my site left to come to yours. I was hoping you could check out my site and see if you would add me to your blog list to promote people to come to my blog. I am an Italian/American living in America and vicariously living through people like you because I, too, wish to live in Italy. Until we blog again, Rita

This is hilarious.
The driving part freaked me out a little bit though. I’m going to try and get my Italian DL next year. I don’t know how to drive a stick and I barely speak Italian. Fun.
