Rome
Arriving to Rome you’re either going to take a cab or take the bus to a metro or what ever to the city. o So it’s obvs cheaper to take the bus/metro, but not to sound like a princess or anything, I’ve never taken it cause 1) every time I get back from a trip I’m tired AF and want to be home & 2) I would get lost cause I’m a dumbass o But if you’re with 3-5 people take a cab. BUT REMEMBER THE FARE IS ALWAYS 48E!!! THEY WILL TRY TO ARGUE WITH YOU AND SAY ITS 60, BUT ITS NOT!! There are signs all over the city that say the fare is always 48e. The 60e they are trying to charge you is for the airport cabs not the city cabs, so argue with them until you get your fucking 48e cab. Say you live there and argue.

Spanish Steps
When I studied abroad they were under construction. ▪ Sad... o But if its not, probably not get a bottle of wine and watch all the tourists, especially the ones that are being bothered by the selfie stick people. I actually got in an argument with one of them lol
