These are the three resources I recommend to all my Italian friends:

1) http://www.italiansrus.com/resources/gensurnames.htm
Great for getting to know some of the history behind your surname. Some people contribute research on their own families that might help you out too.

2) https://commons ...

I was having trouble with that third line. Thanks for clarifying, liviomoreno!

Just be careful to take small bites! John Kasich eats Italian, but not in the good way!

Half-Italian half-spanish here. Mother was Italian, Father was Spanish.

What do your cousins like? It's easier to buy souvenirs when you have a slight idea of what they want to buy.

Glad to hear that, suanj. I find that there are a lot of inappropriate ads on IG that always pop up and it's best to ignore them. With all that spam on there it probably won't go away in the near future.

I would like to second what tati_508 said. I'm considering a trip to Italy in the near future and the information here is really helpful!
