Glad that those of you reading this have decided to check up on me and follow me through my travels. During this next year, maybe longer, I am going to try to see and experience as much as I can. I will do my best to keep you guys updated on my adventures ...

... laundry, and telephone, and reasonable posted regular reception hours. We've stayed in average, above-average, and way-below-average hostels. Rome was a bit below average because we had to argue with the management to get them to honor their obligations. ...

... with some wine, and then made a really awesome home made dinner of pasta and spinach salad. It's great to cook when we stay in hostels that have kitchens! Salad is always so expensive at restaurants, so we don't eat it too often. So when we are able to ...

... even earlier. Next we are headed for Naples where we have booked a hostel in a huge beautiful castle!!! It also was rated #1 in hostels last year so we are looking forward to somthing a little better than the hole in the wall we are in currently. ...

... some great photos and had a great  time tossing coins in and making wishes.      Back at our respective hostels (them at Yellow, me at Alessandro Palace), we squeezed in a short nap, then met up again at nine to go out for ...

... and a stop by an info point we found out that Rome city center does not have hostels and that there were only three hostels near Rome.  We also found out that there was a U2 concert and several other big events going on that night which made our ...

... slow! So on the island of Patmos we ducked into an Internet cafe and made the reservations for our next hostel stay in Rome. So many hostels in Rome had age restrictions -- no one OVER 35 allowed -- so that let me out. :-) We picked one that was ...

... . Absolutely exhausted, we retreated back to our hostel for yet more pasta and beer before watching Gladiator in the hostels lounge. Our final day in Rome wouldn’t actually be in Rome – we were headed to a whole different country – the ...

... early night and try to catch up on the Rome blog to date!  Got up on my third day in Rome, and spent the first couple of hours on the hostels computer saving all my photos onto my portable hard drive and uploading some to Facebook. After that was ...

... we had in mind. I guess we sort of brought this on ourselves because as of now we have been spoiled with large, clean, hospitable hostels for cheap prices. At 24 Euro a night, Two Ducks turned out to be a 5th floor apartment turned hostel via cramming a ...

... to be scared of. For day 21 see the Vatican City entry... Day 22 Because Easter was so busy, we had to change hostels again, so that was our morning activity. This hostel and the previous hostel had "lock out hours" which are times during the day ...

... on tram tickets the most. Our hostel is called "The Yellow" It's so cool! We've definitely lucked out with hostels on this trip! It has cool vaudevill classy chandeliers and black spray painted stencils on the walls of Marilyn Monroe and different ...

... you have know them your whole life. Arriving in Rome we arrange to meet at the train station the next day and went to our various hostels. Turns out my place Camping Roma is about 50 minutes out of Rome, one pain in the arse with my 26 Kg pack..I have ...

... chairmen of your business or something similar to that situation. I never got one good night sleep in all my six nights in hostels. People are always coming in drunk and turning on lights. They make noise. It was really frustrating that people were so ...

... Termini station and most tourists have no clue where they are in the city. All I knew was that there were a bunch of hostels somewhere to the north of the train station so I wandered around, sweating, with my rolling suitcase thing and my normal sized ...

I arrived in Rome on the afternoon of May 13th. Friday the 13th dished me a little bad luck. I went to 5 differnet hostels, only 1 had a room and it was a whopping 35 euro for a dorm. I was not going to pay that. Luckily the guy cut me a break and told me ...

... ;was Sun and Moon Hostel, and although it didn't get the best reviews, I honestly thought it was one of the best hostels we stayed in.  Very clean, very cool people, good security...the whole thing.  We met some great people ...
