I made it. It took five hours of bus from Dubrovnik, 10 hours of ferry ride from Split, and 4 hours of train ride from Ancona, and now I made it to Rome. The way I see it, I can do one of two things 1) Declare myself emperor and start a campaign to take over Europe (again), or 2) act like I dont know where I-m going, take a bunch of pics, and piss off the locals as much as I can. Yeah, option 2 definetly sounds more original and more satisfying--I'll go that route.
The past days days have been too much travel and not enough fun--this has to change. My last night I went dancing in Dubrovnik--an american girl living in Istanbul went with me--I met her at the hostel and she wanted to come along. She got really drunk and kept trying to dirty dance with me and maul me. I was having none of it. She was a horrible dancer, smelled funny, and needed to work on a little social etiquette--cause she thought she was da bomb. Maybe I just wasnt drunk enough for her stunts to work. I'm better off for it.
The next day was the bus, and ferry over here. I met a korean girl, named Boyee, who was traveling to Rome too and I taught her how to play cribbage. When we got to Rome together she invited me to stay at her 'special' hostel. It was only for Koreans. At first I was game and thought it would be interesting to stay with a bunch of Koreans while in Italy. Then I went in and checked the place out. The toilet didnt flush, and the sink or shower water didnt run, so I decided to say bye to Boyee and escaped from the Korean hostel. The next hostel I registered at is called the Hostel Beautiful. All was going fine until they had to call the Fire dept cause of a gas leak. I decided to go for a walk at that point and here I am.
So now I walk to the coliseum. When some stories develop, you'll be the first to know.

Geez, Terry, all this opportunity and no exploitation. To make it a successful trip you need to not only exploit the resources and generosity of the locals.... you also need to exploit the finest natural resource they have to offer: the women. Get back on that horse, head back to that Korean hut, and have your way with a sweet little flower in that Korean hut with no flushing toilet. You will thank me later. ~Anonymous

Wow what a trip, I mean Trip! I don't think you have lived until you have had the experiance of staying in a place like that. I was just watching the Travel Channel and they were talking abotu Rome, and I was goignto tell you about some places. But you know where you are going, everywhere would be ideal, right!
