[Bruno sets the bottle aside again.]

Ten? You must have a difficult time choosing a favorite then. [A beat before he adds,] Besides Francia.

[Bruno may not have the traveling experience that Polnareff does even when considering the diversity that exists even within Italy to this day nor does he really know anything about France beyond anything he might have seen in movies, but that doesn't mean he doesn't understand there's some truth to the old saying, A ogni uccello il suo nido è bello. Bruno tips his head a little like a sudden thought occurs to him.]

You must miss it though. Francia.

[It's a stark contrast between the Italian and French culture here. Neither culture is something natural here, but Bruno's surrounded by people who speak the language — either because it's their native (or close enough) language or they're learning it — and he doesn't exactly have to go far if he wants a taste of home in terms of cuisine either. And sure, the beach here isn't exactly the same as the beaches back home, but it's close enough that he can pretend for at least a few seconds. But how much is there of anything French?]
