I was just in Italy for five weeks, and it was a drinker's paradise. Picture this: 120 college musicians with room and board covered, handed 180 euro every monday. Finish performing, begin boozing, everynight.
There is this bar in Spoleto called Tutta Biera that has over 400 kinds of beer - we never ordered anything, just told the owner to surprise us. Also, beer there is often 10% alcohol (except for the aptly named demon ale, clocking in at 12%)!
Long story short, I was given nearly 1800 euro, and I came back to America with like 6 bucks in my pocket, having gone to bed before 4 AM about twice in over a month. And no hangovers!
Long live Italia!!
