AbstractIn the spring of 2010 the women’s
volleyball team of Tiffin University took a trip to Italy. Many cities were visited such as: Como, Florence, Milan, Pisa, Siena, Venice, and Verona. The difference in culture, including how the game of volleyball is played, will be discussed. One cultural difference that will be explored is “Women’s Day”, which is celebrated monthly. Additionally, the reaction to Americans from the Italians will be discussed.
