Summertime Sadness

As it came to the last day at the first hostel chilling by the pool having a beer and some pasta by my lonesome I had a brief feeling of loneliness. People who I have spoken to have always said that there will always be times of "what the fuck am I really doing here" but you keep pushing through.

Keeping that in mind I set off for the yellow hostel where I would stay for 2 nights, lol meant to be three sorry camping roma I stole a free night from you my bad haha 


I rock into my room and met a bloke named zach from Canada. I told him I was heading to the pub downstairs and that he should come down for a pint later when he had dropped off his bags. 20 minutes later he rocks up with a pitcher of beer and a couple of glasses. Then after that we were joined by two other solo travellers nick from Melbourne and Michael from Auckland.

 It well and truly lifted my spirits meeting these blokes all in the same position as I was. I went on the have 2 of the best nights in Rome with those guys!

  1. Hi Mike, it is true that you will experience times of loneliness. No matter where you are situated in this big wide world and sometimes when surrounded by crowds of people you can feel alone. Your chance meeting with other people in a similar situation to yourself can make all the difference to your mood. So glad your spirits lifted and you had some enjoyable days. My thoughts are with you always,love Mum xxx
