Yesterday I went to the centre of civilisation: Rome. It was extraordinary in every way, and generally such a beautiful city! I guess I wasn’t really expecting to do touristy sight-seeing given it was a school excursion for a Latin assessment, but as an added bonus I was able to see the Colosseum and the Palatine Hill (one of the most ancient parts of the city on which Rome was founded).
Everything was amazing; the streets and architecture of the many different buildings are so full of historical significance. It was just such an overwhelming aura to absorb all at once: the food, the people, the sites, the city! And Roma Termini was another experience in itself…
I’m definitely hoping to visit Rome again once I get the chance to, and perhaps see a little more of this magnificent city – ’twas a great day!
Ti voglio bene!

[I apologise for the major lack of photos, as I mentioned before my camera is broken so it’s a little difficult to transfer the photos I’ve taken from the borrowed camera onto my laptop. For now though, the iphone will have to suffice – The Colosseum]
