Today is my last full day in Rome. I will not lie; I am looking forward to my stay here being over. I am just dying to go east. I am doing that thing again where I wonder why the hell do I keep coming to places that are not even in my top 100 places to see before I die. I keep getting sucked in by famous tourist spots. Like how can I not go to Rome and see the Sistene Chapel or the Colosseum? I need to guide myself away from doing this in the future. The three days I have spent here could have been spent anywhere east of the Adriatic and I would have spent these three days in absolute heaven.
But then I think of things like my time in Naples or last year in Florence. I fell in love with Florence. I loved my time in Naples and all its surrounding areas. I wasn’t really expecting either of those things to happen. I am so glad I went. I love finding new places I love that I hadn’t planned on falling in love with. It makes me feel like I am learning about the world and growing as a person. I guess I am bipolar about my vacation destinations.
But anyway, less deep thoughts with Jennifer and more back to Rome.
