  1. 51? No way! I thought you were around my age, haha.
    I will be 33 in July!
    I enjoy the psychological part of getting older
    But I am starting to feel physical part of getting older, which I do without 😅

    Looking forward to see the pics from Rome.
    Have you visited Europe before?
    I was in both the US and Canada and was quite shocked about the tipping culture.
    In Europe it isn’t as common and I’d only do it after an exceptionally good meal.
    But I guess the wages are different here for such jobs.

    I have heard that some countries increase the prices for tourists.
    I remember when we were in Rome, we paid 15 euro for 2 cups of coffee, which is an insane price.
    Perhaps it is better to ask for the menu in the local language and just Google translate the text. Some English menu cards might have slightly higher prices.

    Thank your the shoutout to my blog!

      My daughter is 31! 🤣🤣🤣

      I could do without feeling the physical age too!

      I’ve been to London (2018) and Paris (last year). I’ve heard about different menus and tourists being taken advantage of—so far, I don’t believe that has occurred. Hopefully we won’t have a negative experience in Rome either.

      Thank YOU for the blog post!! 😍😍😍

        He was funny, but not as funny as he’s been in the past. He got on his soapbox and acted like a motivational speaker fir a good chunk of it, then ended the last quarter of his show singing and dancing, which was fun, but not very funny.
