I'm sick...

I'm sick...

I got sick from a combination of too little food, too little sleep, and too much booze. And now I'm walking around in 30 degree heat feeling cold and coughing like a 70-year old with emphazima (correct? who knows/cares... I'm fuckin sick).

I have slept till 2 the past two days, so tonight we take the long ride into Rome to see it by night. If it weren't for the pool here, I would probably be dead right now.

So let me describe today's video to you which is impossible to upload (unless you donate 3 euro by secure money transfer):

OPENS WITH: John hungover and coughing like a ridiculous fool. Stuart behind the camera laughing and speaking with a wrecked voice.

CUT TO: Random shot of MASSIVE party table at our hostel filled with awesome people.

CUT BACK TO: More John hungover.

Repeat.

Gotta go now, but you get the idea.

Cheers and ciao,

John from Canada

Roman Times

Hey everyone!

That highly accurate picture of me comes from my loving sister Chris. I am an inscrutable wannabe journalist type, though I don't think I own any shirt that shade of green. Maybe it would look good on me...

Anyway, I am writing to you from the Tiber Village Hostel and Camping Site 30 minutes from Rome. The place is like a weird budget resort, halfway between an odd sort of bohemian paradise and a nightmare involving strange accents.

I've also never drunk so much. Lesson for all you kids out there: A €3.70 bottle of vodka will taste like bugspray but it's good for two whole nights. Worth it? You decide.

But here's the problem with this strange and wonderful place... there's no wifi. Or there is, but it's €3/hour and is wayy undependable. So, no wifi means no videos.

Because we love you so much, we're going to try to post some pictures of amazing Rome (which has 2000 year old things just laying about the place and some cheap panini) while we're here. And not just for those HIP members.

Anyway, it is time I should be going, but I hope you have enjoyed this introspective into our lives and that you'll stick with us through this long, sure to be bizarre week.

If you say "Drink", you have to drink,

John from Canada
