The People
The people of Italy all do seem to value family and not just the immediate family. Even though, there is a difference between the people of northern and southern Italy that is still something that is cherished by all. Depending on what part of Italy you might go to you can see the difference in wealth and the way of life for the people in those regions by the type of clothes they wear, the types of meat the eat, and their way of speaking the native language. Italians I believe can be defined as no nonsense type of people, yet also very romantic type of people all at the same time. A quality I do admire bring on the straight-forwardness and romance I will take that approach any day.
