ROME!!


Rome is amazing! Surprisingly enough its really easy to get around! We were able to find all the tourist attractions by foot and by bus! The coliseum, pantheon, the trevi fountain, Spanish steps, the Vatican, piazza novana, THE STEELERS BAR, and etc, is all very close to each other. The food is soo yummy! They really are probably the best place you can get pasta. Spaghetti alla bolegnese is probably my favorite. Its just spaghetti with meat sauce, buts its sooo good! The sauce is fresh and the best part of the meal. Bars here are actually cafes where you can buy food to go like pizza, tabacchi are places where you can buy stamps, cigarettes and bus tickets for the tram and buses and besides that everything else is pretty self-explanatory. Be ready to have your personal space essentially violated. Italians are use to having to be crammed on public transportation and places that its pretty much normal to them. That’s probably the worst part about being here besides their transportation. In the states everyone has their space boundaries, just have to get use to it I guess. The transportation is easy but sometimes annoying. Busses and trams can frequently run one day but the next day it can take forever! Besides those two things, you can definitely fall in love with this place! UNTIL NEXT TIME!
