My three days in France were up. I was taking my second long-distance bus, from Lyon Perrache to Milan Lampugnano, a journey of seven hours and five minutes 😇

At six I checked out and walked to the metro for the bus station. I remember being surprised someone was already at reception that early 🥹

The bus station was huge. I took the long way because I didn’t know where I was going, but reached the stop before seven. The bus was late anyway, so I waited.

The bus stop is on the third floor, so it's a few laps to get out.

I didn't get to buy anything in the morning, but luckily the driver stopped at a rest stop at noon when he was heading to Italy.

Even though I was shopping, I still had to pay attention to the driver sitting for dinner, if people leave and leave me there, I'm tired:))) After eating, the driver also remembers my face and signs on the car.

When I got to Italy, I was more cautious, I stood in the corner of the wall and didn't let anyone touch me, and then I felt normal, I thought that Rome was the place where there were most pickpockets.

I got on the tram one car to try to go but did not dare to try again:))) go to the doctor, there is no QR scanner so I do not check the ticket, no one goes to check.

On the hostel room, I asked if you have to pay city tax and the receptionist said it was included in the fee, on the app I see separate, so I don't lose more money.

I grabbed a pastry to take the edge off my hunger. The chairs and tables were being put away for closing, but the cheerful guy working there sang while he cleaned and joked around with me.

I found a Chinese restaurant, cheap, roasted rice 7.55 euro ~ 238k, other places more expensive 10-12 Euro, after going to buy the ta jia, also of the Chinese, try sticky rice milk tea, the staff is not very friendly, the tea is normal.

I walked around the church and listened to the violin, this guy has a piece of music on the violin again three times:))) Sometimes everyone goes I thought he would go back, but no, the next time there are so many people standing to watch 😇

The Italian travel luggage, sometimes hidden in the sleeve of a sweater, and finally come home safe, without losing anything.

I walked 1.5km to the hostel, I got a train ticket but I prefer to walk 🥹
