La Bella Vita

Ciao Tutti!!!

Rome doesn't cease to amaze me. I love the streets, the buildings, the history, the art, the food, the wine, the trees, the drinking fountains - almost everything.

I went out to dinner with Andy Steves, Rick Steves son, who is starting a weekend study abroad trip company. Small group of us went on a walk through the different piazzas then ended up at a great Italian restaurant near the Pantheon. The funny part was that on one of our first days in Rome, some of the girls I live with went to the Pantheon and we were following Rick Steves guide book and ended up at this restaurant. it wasn't until I was standing outside of it when I realized why Andy brought us there. It was great though.


Naples tomorrow for the day. going to eat some pizza and then coming right back. Any other suggestions?

My backpack for the past few days:

My backpack, my keys, my little vodafone, old bus tickets, sunglasses, my water bottle, information about Naples and my train ticket, map of Rome, Italian-English Dictionary, wallet, chapstick, pens, euro coins, my Italian textbook, and a sweater to cover my shoulders for the occasional church visit.

...and those are my toes




Still can't believe I've been in Rome for just little over a week, seems like a decade already! There is so much to do! Haven't even discovered half of Rome.


'till next time, Hallie
