Viaggiare in treno in Italia è una delle esperienze più autentiche per chi vuole conoscere il Paese.
Le stazioni sono punti centrali nelle città e collegano in modo efficiente le principali destinazioni.
Saper dire A che ora parte il treno per Roma? o Da che binario parte? è fondamentale per muoversi con sicurezza.
In molte stazioni troverai biglietterie automatiche con istruzioni anche in inglese, ma usare qualche parola italiana ti farà sentire più a tuo agio.
Ricorda che i treni italiani sono numerati e che il biglietto va convalidato prima di salire, se viaggi con compagnie regionali.
Fare attenzione ai piccoli dettagli — come chiedere Questo posto è libero? — ti aiuterà a vivere il viaggio con calma, come un vero italiano.

If you see someone sitting alone in a restaurant, you might assume they're waiting for someone, or perhaps they're grabbing a quick lunch on their break.

But more and more people around the world are purposely dining alone.

Japan has a special word for this: ohitorisama, which refers to people confidently doing things alone without worrying about what others think.

A recent survey found that 23% of Japanese people eat out alone, up from 18% in 2018. And in the US, solo dining reservations have risen 29% over the last two years, according to restaurant reservation site OpenTable.

OpenTable CEO Debby Soo thinks remote work is one reason for the increase, with people looking for a break from their home offices.

The increasing popularity in solo dining comes as more people are living alone. In 2019, the Pew Research Center found that 38% of US adults ages 25 to 54 were living without a partner, up from 29% in 1990. In Japan, single households now make up one-third of the total; that’s expected to increase to 40% by 2040, according to government data.

Growing interest in solo travel — particularly among travelers ages 55 and over — is also leading to more meals alone.

But Soo thinks there could be more to it than that.

"I think there's a broader movement of self-love and self-care and really … enjoying your own company," Soo said.

As a result, many restaurants are redoing their seating, changing their menus and adding other special touches to appeal to solo diners.

But some aren't always happy to seat one diner. A Michelin-starred London restaurant caused a stir last year when it started charging solo diners the same price as two customers. The restaurant, which has 34 seats, offers an eight-course menu costing about $280 per person.

Other restaurants say it's worth seating one person because solo diners will often come back and eat there again.
