Living in Rome

So i have been living in Rome for almost 3 weeks now.
In that time i have been getting rich and then also i have spent almost every single euro i had.

For about 10 days i had a simple routine life that i so much hate.
Every morning i woke up between 6-9, go to 3 or 4 main bars where people know me and have a Coffey, croissants, panini, or beer depending on the moods and bars.
After what i went to beg somewhere between 11am and 4pm until 7-9pm. After what i came back to front of the pantheon where is almost always live performers and have some drinks again.





One night i went to bars with Egyptian guy.


Then i went out with these guys, one from iran and the other from equador.
With them it was impossible for me to pay my drinks and believe me, i tried many times.


The guy in the middle works in ice cream bar and i went to visit him and his boss was also there.

He liked so much what I was doing that he offered me free ice cream and also made me a present.



I also had a chance to wash all my clothes properly.


And then arrived my best friend from estonia.



And i had to let go even from these little sleeping comforts i had because i gave him my sleeping bag and sleeping matt so i started to sleep in a tent.




And that was the moment when everything for my wallet started to go downhill because it was so much better to spend it that to earn it.

But i didn't mind because i enjoyed every moment.







 We even had fun with the nature when we gave food to this big angry bird who later wanted to attack us.


I even got almost arrested when i went to swim in some fountain and after 30 seconds there was 3 police cars in front of me.

We also visited the Colosseum and roman forum.











We did a lot more things but theres not a lot of photos unfortunately.

After he left my other very good friend arrived in rome.


We walked a little around the city and then just sat down in front of the pantheon (i guess its actually my home here) and talked about everything and drinked beers.

And in the evening we also met with her host here in Rome and went to bars to have some more drinks.



Now, have to get some money back because i have to buy some better equipment.
After that i have a quick look on Vatican and then i start walking because now i don't have to wait for anything anymore and I'm tired of staying in one place so long already
I plan to leave in the beginning of the next week.

I think that in this post i got bigger things covered

And still 1037 km. Because i don't count the kilometers i do in the city when i stay.

All roads lead to Rome

Actually if you check the map then you realize this phrase is actually quite true. In the Roman empire all roads realy did lead Rome because it was considered as the center of the world.

Friday night when i arrived in Rome i stayed in a bar just in wifi until 3 am because it was raining like hell outside. Later i discovered that it was actually a gay bar but i didnt mind because the people were nice, i got food and coffe for free and i had a try place to stay.




I went sleep in a tainstation but unfortunetly i had to wake up at 6 am already so i didnt like that place.

Saturday the weather was nice and i went to discover rome and in the first hour i met this guy from South America who travels in the whole world to see different placeses and meet different people. We made an interview and just chatted an he gave me some sandwiches.


And now some sightseeing.

Colosseum, i havent cone inside yet put i still plan to do so.



Roman forum, again havent gone inside yet put i plan to do so.












I dont remember the name of this building but its nice.



Trevi fountain



Piazza di spanga and spanish steps.



Pantheon, the palce where i sleep in Rome. I have to wake up around 9 or 10 and mostly every second morning i get a coffe in bed.















Piazza navona


Something random that i have seenon different days.








In the evening i went drink in one other square.


Found a cheap bar where after 3 beers i started to have beers for free.


Where was an intresting sign.





In the night i met this girl and when she heard how i live and that i havent tried roman pizza she gave me 20 euros so i could do so.


These guys saw me and wanted to chat and when they heard that i dont have much money they went around asking people to donate money for me. I got 10 euros.


What to do when you have a bad hangover and dont want to move a lot. You just sit down and put a hat in front of you.



I stayed like that for five hours until the police asked me to live because there was something under the road why it was forbiden to sit there.

Ive done that again some times in front of a supermarket and i have get some food as well.

Yesterday i met a nice girl who came to me to offer a cigarette.


We started chatting and after half hour we went to her place. After that we went to one beutiful park were you can have a nice view on Rome.









After that we went her place to have a beer.
Soon we will meet again.

In the night i had a long and very intresting coverstation about world and society with this guy.


And in every evening i have relaxed and enjoyed the life with live music.




Today i found a fountain in not so popular place so i washed some clothes.


Somebody wanted to see a photo of my shoes and feet and to know my health condistion. Im not gone post a photo about my feet right now because they are still pretty blistered and ugly and also im in very public place right now.
Right now everything is okey but a week ago i only weigh 60 kg.


And in the shoes i have few ventilationholes but other than that they are okey.

Im staying in Rome for another two weeks until my friend arrives in Rome. After that i will hit on the road again.

So far 1037 km.
