Don't wear white socks with black pants! Hehehehehe. Just kidding. Just be friendly and don't talk loud, get drunk every night, compare Italy with the US every 3 seconds, etc. Try speaking in Italian instead of expecting everyone to speak English to you. Don't get upset if they don't speak perfect English or any English at all. Etc. etc. Enjoy your time in Italy.

I'm American but live in Italy.

Hi Caitlin, I'm Italian and I've been an exchange students to the U.S.. On my experience I can tell that basicly no one can tell for sure what is a nono, it depends on the context. You just need to observe what other people do and, if you're not sure about something in particular, just ask the people you trust (teachers, host family,...). I'm sure that if you're flexible and openminded to the new culture, people will appreciate your efforts and notice your good intentions.

Americans tend to be very loud and Italians are loud too, but in a different way. Imitate the locals in your being loud! Other than that I think you'll get on pretty well in Italy. In case you are of Italian heritage DO NOT go around saying you're Italian because that annoys us a lot!
