Is there anything I should know about traveling to France and Italy?

Question

I'm a blonde haired, green eyed, American so I already know I'm probably going to stand out. I'm going to Paris on July 8th and then the French Riviera followed by Florence, Rome, and the Isle of Capri.

Thank You :)

Answer 1

Believe it or not they do have many blond haired people in France and Italy, and millions of tourists. So you wont stand out as much as you may think.

Answer 2

Be street smart and get used to being hit on.  Nothing's serious so if you're looking for something more, don't count on it.  In the south, they'll go topless.  Don't act "American" i.e. don't be loud and obnoxious.  Go for classy and considerate, and you'll be fine.  Have a great time.
