I am rich. I'm visiting Paris and staying at a nice hotel. I've been to Paris twice. I like traveling with a partner. I enjoy art. I have a friend who is Italian. I do not know how to speak Italian.
I know how to cook and bake. I used to live by the ocean. I like traveling and would like to go to Iceland. I don't have the money for travel. I have dogs. I have been to Europe. Haven't had enough money to leave the country as an adult. I have a job. I am of the age and ability to drive a car.
I just told my friend about wanting to go to Italy and she's super excited and ready to leave.  That's great! Are you going to start planning a trip with her? Absolutely. What should I do when we get there?  I haven't been able to travel much lately, but if I could I would love to try all the local cuisine. Italy must have amazing food. I can't wait to try it. I need to learn some Italian phrases before I make the trip.  That would definitely be helpful. Your friend is Italian, right? Does she know how to speak the language? She is, and she does speak the language. She will definitely be a great resource, but I have goal of ordering my own food when I get there lol A very important goal! Practicing Italian with her will help you prepare, and it will probably get you even more excited for your trip. Do you have any cities you'd like to visit? Rome! That's one that's on my bucket list. So much history there.  I think visiting Rome is a must for any Italy trip. You could probably spend weeks there and not see everything. Your trip sounds amazing already. I really hope I can afford to travel sometime soon! I hope you do too. Experiencing the world is a great thing.
