Cultural Note
Multigenerational living is far more common in Italy than in most Western countries. The phrase 'di generazione in generazione' (from generation to generation) captures the Italian emphasis on continuity — whether it's family recipes, artisan crafts, businesses, or values being passed down through the centuries.
