#789 – AirBnb Rome – August 14, 2019

We finally made it to our AirBnb in Rome. (Sun., July 14, 2019)  It was our first experience using and an Airbnb and we loved it!  So much more charm and less expensive than a hotel.  A friend who travels frequently suggested that we use a Superhost.   They come highly recommended.  Plus, we got emails for suggested sights, experiences and restaurants within the area.  We went through these doors that opened into a large courtyard.

No hotel card key here. 🙂

The tile work was so beautiful!

Lots of charm, but no elevator or bell service.  We had four suitcases (one with all of my SU gifts), two carry-ons and we are old.

Our view from the bedroom  looked out onto the inside courtyard.

We were literally about a block from the Vatican and the hustle and bustle of Rome, yet we could hear a pin drop in our rooms.  I don’t know how, but those walls kept all of those noises out.

Our bathroom even came complete with a bidet. Another thing we learned is that it is not common in Europe to use washcloths.  How do people wash their face???

Coming Up:
Fri., 8/16/19 – Stamp a Stack – My Home – Roscoe, IL
$25 – 12 cards (6 designs/2 of each)
Just let me know if you would like to attend, and I will set supplies aside for you.  

Blog Prize Changes:
I’m still going to draw a name every day and send a hand-stamped card.  I will do random drawings throughout the month for larger prizes (stamp sets, full packs of DSP…)  That will happen about 3 to 4 times a month and you never know when it will happen!

Starting today, anyone who places an order will also receive a hand-stamped card and a gift.

If you still have a blog prize coming from the end of July or early August, those will be mailed out later today.

Winner for today:  Colleen Beier
Look for a lovely card coming your way!!!
