Today I went to E.U.R. in honour of Bertolucci’s “Il Conformista”. EUR is what the world might have looked like had Mussolini won the war. I saw the Department of Labour Building. Got a nice little lunch while it rained, and then went to the Museo della Civilta Romana. They had lots of ancient roman art here, but a kind of boring layout. The best thing is a scale model of Constantine’s Roma. Took a siesta, then went over to the Vatican area to experience that at night. It was beautiful.

Takes me back
As a student 40+ years I hitch hiked around Europe. What you are doing is today's equivalent I guess. It's facinating following your progress, best of luck and keep rocking.
