🌍

خلفية ثقافية

The 'casa' is the center of the universe. Inviting someone over is a sign of deep friendship. It's common to spend hours around the kitchen table. Hospitality is even more intense. If you go 'a casa mia' in the South, expect to be fed a full meal even if you just came for a chat. Many Italians live 'a casa mia' (meaning their parents' home) well into their 30s due to economic factors and strong family ties. In big cities like Milan, 'a casa mia' might be a tiny apartment, but the pride in the interior design and 'accoglienza' (welcoming spirit) remains high.
