Most people leave with souvenirs.
Here’s what’s actually worth it 👇

🧳 THE BELT RULE
Don’t bring a mediocre belt.
Buy one in Florence (€20–€40) — real leather, stitched (not glued), lasts years.

👜 LEATHER (DO IT RIGHT)
Skip street markets.
Look for small shops or workshops.

Buy:
• belt
• wallet
• simple bag

Real leather = natural, rich smell (you’ll notice it immediately).

📍 FLORENCE — where I’d go:
• Scuola del Cuoio (classic, you can see artisans working)
• Infinity Firenze (small, more personal feel)
• Casini (great for jackets and quality basics)
• Benheart (modern, stylish pieces)

📍 ROME — good options:
• Mancini Leather (traditional, family-run)
• Del Giudice (small shop, solid craftsmanship)

🍷 FOOD & DRINK
Best things to bring home:

• Aged balsamic (12+ years, thick not watery)
• Dried porcini (light + long shelf life)
• Pistachio cream (especially Sicilian)
• Parmigiano Reggiano (24–36 months, vacuum sealed)
• DOP olive oil (dark glass bottle)
• Local wine (ask what locals drink)

All travel well in checked luggage.

🛒 SUPERMARKET FINDS

• Pocket Coffee
• Fonzies
• Pan di Stelle
• Ciobar
• Sperlari jellies

Cheap, light, always loved.

💄 FARMACIA

Look for the green cross.

• Rilastil SPF
• Nuxe oil
• La Roche-Posay (EU formulas)
• Marvis toothpaste

Often better + cheaper than abroad.

🏺 CERAMICS

From Deruta, Vietri, Sicily.
Wrap in clothes, pack center of suitcase, or ship.

🚫 SKIP
Airport shops — overpriced + lower-quality versions.

If you’re coming to Italy, buy things you’ll actually use —not just things that look like Italy.

Planning a trip to Italy? 🧳🇮🇹
After living here for a while, I’ve noticed there are a few small things many travelers forget to pack. They’re simple, but they can make exploring Italy much smoother.

Here are 12 things I’d definitely pack for Italy:

👟 Broken-in walking shoes
Italy is best explored on foot, and cities like Rome or Florence mean a lot of walking on cobblestones. New shoes quickly turn sightseeing into sore feet.

💧 Reusable water bottle
Italy has amazing free drinking fountains. In Rome they’re everywhere, and refilling a bottle is much easier than constantly buying water.

🔌 Italy Type L power adapter
Many people assume any European adapter works, but Italy uses a specific three-pin plug.

🎟 Printed ticket confirmations
It might feel old-school, but printed tickets sometimes scan more easily at busy museum entrances.

👜 Small crossbody bag
Many museums and churches don’t allow large backpacks, and a small bag is also easier to manage in crowded places.

☀️ Sunscreen & a hat
Even in spring or early autumn the Mediterranean sun can be surprisingly strong, especially at outdoor sites.

👕 Quick-dry clothing
Many apartments and Airbnbs use drying racks instead of dryers, so clothes that dry quickly are really helpful.

🗺 Offline maps downloaded
Historic centers and small towns sometimes have weak signal, so offline maps can save you when wandering.

🌂 Compact umbrella
Rain showers can appear suddenly, especially in spring and autumn.

🦟 Mosquito repellent (summer)
In warmer months, evenings near rivers or canals can bring mosquitoes.

📱 Extra phone storage
Italy fills your camera roll fast — architecture, food, views, art… everything.

🧣 Light scarf or cover-up for churches
Many churches require covered shoulders. A light scarf in your bag solves this instantly.

A little preparation makes traveling around Italy much easier — and lets you enjoy the food, the views, and the beautiful streets.
