    “It works,” she says, sounding impressed. “Sit, have a coffee. I can get you an espresso? What would you like?”

    “The biggest coffee they have,” I tell her, taking a seat.

    She gives me a wry look, her brow quirking up. “You Americans never learn, do you.”

    “Hey, at least I know I can’t take it to go.”

    That’s something that will take some getting used to. I drink coffee like a fish and I’m so used to grabbing a Starbucks and nursing it for a good hour. To-go coffee is relatively unheard of in Italy, and most drinks, even lattes, fit in a teacup. You slam back your coffee and then you go on with your day, which is insane to me.
