OK, I'm trying to plan my first trip (study abroad in Italy) and have found that all of my searches for tips end up with packing tips. This would be helpful if people specified more than "long sleeved." What I want to know is, if I am going to be in Florence for a year (or at the least a semester) what kind of clothing will I want, or would be appropriate? Also, are there any customs in Italy that it would be a good idea to be aware of? I've found lots on pickpockets, and on Italian men being VERY persistant... what should I know? Basically this is a call for anything and everything you have learned on any trips to Italy.
This forum has been really helpful on giving me ideas for how to limit what I bring, I would just like to know if anyone has advice that would be expecially helpful...
Love the site!
