as for italy, Im Italian and have lived there so here's my advice: try to get down to the south, and I mean the tip of the boot or the heel, because the water and sun are unbeatable as is the coral, spearfishing, and definitly the swiss tourist girls. Otherwise, I'd advise you to stay away from rural northern italy because unless you have family there, there's no reason to hang around. Also, I'd say don't go to venice, or if you do, go for a day and get out because its just overcrowded and expensive and smelly, etc. Thats my two and a half cents
