Homeless
... to pay for an airport hotel either because we wanted to spend the time in Rome. So we chose homelessness. We planned to store Thelma and Louis at ‘left luggage' and head to Trastevere, an area we had never been, to find the ultimate restaurant for a perfect birthday dinner. Then, later that night we would head to Fumicino on the bus (the trip takes about an hour) and secure two places for a potentially inhospitable night. Of course, we had never ...
All roads lead back to Rome....
