What main languages are spoken here?:

Italian! Most people working in restaurants or in touristy areas knew English, so communication wasn't a problem during this adventure.

What type of money is used here?:

Euros!

How much does a bottle of water cost?:

A bottle of water costs three euros, while a cup of espresso costs two euros.

What was the best meal this week?:

My favorite meal of the day is breakfast, so even though I was in Italy, a country known for pizza and pasta, the best meal for me this week was mascarpone pancakes with strawberries and blueberries, with espresso as the beverage. 

What music did I listen to this week?:

This week I listened to my relaxation playlist (with songs like "Drift Away" by Dobie Gray and  "You Can't Stop the Girl" by Bebe Rexha). Most of the music played in Italian restaurants and German stores is 2010 pop music, so it's a small throwback for me. 

What activity was the most fun this week?:

Getting to visit the Colosseum was the most fun thing during this trip! As one of the seven greatest wonders of the world, this was definitely on my bucket list.  Now I hope to see the last six!
