Just because the stars of “Jersey Shore” didn’t have any luck finding love in Italy doesn’t mean they didn’t have an unforgettable time.

“Italy was awesome,” JWoww told MTV News. “We got to experience a different culture, different lifestyle and amazing architecture.”

Of course, being overseas, the cast had to adapt to a new way of life, which proved to be difficult in some cases. “It was different than I thought,” Pauly D said. “The normal stuff like GTL was hard to do, but we had a great time.”

Vinny added: “Basic amenities that we are used to over here, like walking to the store and buying a Gatorade, you can’t do that there. If you want to get a cappuccino and sit down for a four-course meal, you can do that.”

Italy isn’t just known for decadent meals; it’s also known for wine — which Snooki became very accustomed to. “The wine was phenomenal there,” Snooki said. “All we did was drink wine. The meatballs love the wine.”

But they couldn’t drink too much of it, since Florence’s famous cobblestone streets proved to be a bit of challenge for the girls. “The wine, cobblestones and heels — not a good combination,” Snooki said. “Meatballs rolling in Italy.”

We all know when you go on vacation, you have to bring home a souvenir. So what did the Situation bring back from Florence?

“I was able to take home some of the language, which is important to me, ’cause my grandparents are from Italy and I am 100 percent Italiano,” the Situation said. “It just so happens I have green eyes and a six-pack; I was born that way.”
