Last night was my final one in Rome, so I wanted to do something typical and low-key.

After accidentally running into the Montana girls from the hostel and walking around Campo de Fiori with them, I met Mike, a teacher from Chicago. We decided to set out and eat the thing that the Italians are most famous for: pasta. We found a nice hole in the wall restaurant, and it was exactly what you would expect. Mmm…tasty.

When we wrapped up he headed off to a pub crawl (which are advertised to tourists everywhere in Rome, a city with way more Irish pubs than it has any right to) and I headed back to the hostel. There I talked with Matt, a Brit who was fascinated by my Kindle. It sounds like it’s gotten a lot of press in the UK, but nobody has actually seen one. I wonder what is keeping Amazon out of there. Legal issues with the publishers? I can only speculate.

Well, Rome, thank you for showing me the good side of Italy. Caio. Until next time.
