Answer 1

try to type in Italy, usually they have different languages and also english, most Europaen cities have an english language site.

For clothes takes spring clothes and one warm jacket. Long pants a must, jeans are fine for casual, for the vatican bring a head covering like a scarf. Good running shoes, otherwise just what ever you like to wear. You need a converter for your hairdryer and  curling iron if you use one. Available at Wal-Mart.

Have a nice trip.

Answer 2

I have never been to Italy but I have traveled to Paris and London. First find out what the temperature is going to be like and pack accordingly. Bring clothes that will be easy to layer, such as tank tops and long sleeve shirts, a hoodie as well.  Do you have a passport? If not, find out which post office in your area takes passport applications. I also recommend exchanging a small amount of dollars for Euros before you leave, this creates less confusion and then you can get anything you need right away with out a hassle. Bring a suitcase (that rolls) and a backpack for during the day. Do you know any Italian? If not learn at the very least, Hello, thank you, goodbye, water, please, I would like, and do you speak English. Um I can't think of anything else right now.

Hi,

Usually the weather is warm during this time of year but some warm clothes are recommended...

You can check the weather online before you leave here:

If your time schedule allows it I would suggest a visit to the ancient town Spoleto.

It's not far from Assisi and is allways a wonderful place to visit!

Another nice place not far from Assisi is Orvieto.
