Oh yes, I have been to Rome...Italy is my favourite place so far, although Rome wasn't as good as I expected. I'm glad I went, and I sae the Colloseum and Trevi fountain etc, but I preferred Sorrento and the Amalfi coast. I have been to progue too. I see you are going there. I loved Prague (and its cheap)! If you can, when you are in the Czech Republic, try to get to a town called Czesky Krumlov :)
