How to visit Rome
It made me
felice!
 "8 times makes Rome my lover. "
How I did it: I have family in the airlines so I get to fly for free- otherwise I would never be able to afford it. But study abroad if given the opportunity! That was one of my best trips yet. Lessons & tips: Get Lost. But be aware of where you are, but the best way to learn about the city is to lose yourself in it- that way you can find yourself again in it. Resources: best guide: "City Secrets: Rome" by Robert Kahn It is an atypical tour book written by architects, artists, musicians, archeologists, writers etc. and gives interesting viewpoints on a lot of Rome- I marked off things that I visited in the book, and within a week there I saw most of what was in it. Highly reccomended.

2009.06.07 While walking through town yesterday I dropped into a Travel Agent’s office and picked up the Thomas Cook package tour booklet for Rome (and other places too). I read through it over lunch and discovered that many of the flight/hotel pairing were reasonably priced and the hotels well situated. I was encouraged (though all the trip are based on double occupancy).

This is going to be an easy one, since I am leaving for Rome tomorrow! Today, I need to bring down my spring clothes, pack, get some money, go to the pharmacy, buy some snacks, and get a modem that work with pay as you go.

My favourite place in Europe, easily. No where else was like I expected it to be but Rome was everything and more – amazing architecture, great food, clear skies, gorgeous people, little cobblestone laneways with vine covered restaurants. Beautiful.
