I was travelling today, but I’d only booked the tickets the day before, on the train from Milan to Venice. The payment notifications kept coming.
I’d gone to bed late after a lot of walking, but I still dared set a 5 a.m. alarm in the dorm 😎 Sorry to anyone it woke :))) I nearly slept through it myself and jolted awake at 5:23. I rushed out, glad the station was only 600 metres away.
Changing trains at Bologna Centrale at 8 a.m.
10:00 am, we're in Florence.
I walked around looking for rice to eat:))) I went to a Chinese restaurant to eat toast, there was a QR code on the table to order food, it was convenient and I didn't have to communicate in case I didn'ts know the language:)))
The Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore is as beautiful as a painting.
The second time I lost money :))) I didn't ask the price before I had to buy the ice cream for 10 euros 🥲 I tried but only got half after I threw it in the trash 😅 the first time I bought the 12 euro ice cream in France, because there was no price tag + I thought it was cheap.
I walked to the shore and enjoyed the scenery and then I went back to the train station for my trip to Pisa.
Walk 800 meters from the train station to the Leaning Tower of Pisa.
The 2.5 euro dill-cream, so cheap and so good.
I walked around, took pictures, made videos, and then walked to the train station to Rome, and on the way I accidentally came across a pizza place, and I saw the sign "Welcome pizza lovers", and I felt like it was really good, 4 euros a tiny piece, I haven't eaten one in Vietnam =
22:30 only check-in, the receptionist told me to read the name in Vietnamese listen, when I finished reading I did not understand so I asked to give my passport:)))
The building's password, the hostel's password and the keys to my room.
I want to go in a shower, but I can only when someone knocks on the door, and I'm not sure if I'm going to the Vatican, so I'm bored in my room and I'll take the tram to RomaTermini.
The ticket machine charged €1.50 a ride. I’d downloaded a pile of apps but couldn’t buy a ticket and had no signal underground, so I used the machine. It made me buy at least two tickets and added another €0.50 in fees.
From the train station, walk another 1.3 km to get there 🥹
It's almost 12:00, nobody's there, and there's a police car coming by every now and then.
One in the morning, I found my way back to my room.
The bus runs for a while and arrives at RomaTermini, in front of the door there are many homeless people sleeping, I walked inside to get out of the path near the hostel that the police just turned around, drove my scooter back to the main hall.
There's a chance, I found a nightclub, I bought a 3-euro hotdog with a sausage that tasted like a German sausage.
I took this photo at 1:49 a.m. I was eating on the street and didn’t feel unsafe. Quite a few people were sleeping outside too.
