Rome is the most beautiful city I´ve ever seen! If you haven´t been it´s definitely worth visiting sometime. I arrived on Sept 5th with Mary, we stayed at a cute B&B and did the usual tourist things (vatican, colosseum, and downtown Rome). After Mary left I stayed in a hostel downtown called ´Yellow´, that felt a lot like an American frat house dorm. I noticed a lot of people with Lonley Planet guidebooks and decided I made the right decision NOT using one. I was lucky enough to have a two friends in Rome. Silvia, an Italian girl I met before leaving SF, took me out with her friends and showed me what young Romans do for fun. Courtney is a fellow american living in Rome and she introduced me to the best neighborhood in town, Trestevere. I liked Trestever so much I left the hostel and found a room to rent for my remaining week in Rome. My land lady, Yuria, was super nice and invited me up for a dinner party!
GTG!

Thanks for the photographs and travelogue. Looks like you had fun. See you in a few days! Love, Dad
ReplyDeleteYAY! I'm so glad to see the photos and to hear more about your time in Rome. It sounds so serendipitous, like everything is unfolding and emerging in the perfect way, but not in a way you could have planned. Isn't that the best way for things to be? I love you lots, Dahling! See you soon(ish)!
