I'm telling you as an Italian: that gesture that you tourists make with your hands to "imitate" Italians (you did it when you were talking about gelato) you should know that in Italy it literally means "what the fuck do you want?", ahahah. So it's better not to make gestures if you're not Italian to avoid embarrassing scenes, ahahah. It's better to know certain things ;). I'm glad you like Italy ;).
