Finally in Roma! Gotta wanderlust my way to the hotel I booked.

Ciao! Thanks for making the journey worthwhile. Till I settled in....

bezimo:
I hope you have your german residence permit for your german visa or schengen visa, if not.Not sure if you want to do that to Italy, Border control might ask for it.
Roma Termini. Rome is nice, but Venice is the best.

Really . There was no such thingy.

Samtoby:
Nice one OP... I seriously need to ask, how are you paying for your daily expenses?? I understand you can pay via ATM online but what about the restaurant? is there a POS there or you have exchanged some few Pounds with you..

I have a cap of 20 euros daily spend. I try not to use my cards on POS, I bought 200 euros in 9ja airport and I'm managing it. I only used my cards to pay for stuff at the mall in Switzerland a few days ago

wayodude:
Excellent! I am happy to see you doing fun stuff (travelling and seeing things) this is what tourism is about, not going to Dubai to buy Gucci bags as many Naijas idea of Tourism.

I'm working in Italy at the moment and have been to most of those places you photographed. If only you had time the to stop in Como for a bit by the Lake. Also other places not far from Bologna like Rimini and Riccione would've been fun and a day trip to San Marino!! All good though keep sharing and enjoy!

I went to LAke Como a few days back! Such splendor! ..

Thanks for the tips

60km from Rome, we r 2 hours ahead of time, this driver is driving at snail speed. I'm so hungry not a bite all day. This speeding train even makes it feel worse.

I'm sorry I cant mention everyone but I appreciate your tips advice and contributions. Thanks for also keeping the thread clean. The lil lady says hi.
Grazie!

This bus driver refused to move this bus. Um guessing he is ahead of schedule. Passing through a lot of farms in the countryside. Mostly corn, and sunflower

Why u won suffer dat new born baby

She's not a new born. She's almost 12 months and we have been travelling together since she was 1 month. We are always on the move.

Goodbye Firenze!

20 mins stopover and we are on. Back through the mountains, my ears sense that we are climbing.

fredoooooo:


You will love it over there , the colloseo etc , I always visit anytime I'm in Rome .......
It took me years visiting all you want to Complete in weeks ...

Up into mountains, down into valleys... We approach civilization. Welcome to Firenze

wristbangle:


Oh that's nice ma. I don't know If I can send u a PM hoping to seek for a request.

Sure you can

Rapsowdee01:



If 2 weeks is 17,000.... A year would be up to 500,000 !!!!

I'll try to inquire about the 1 year.... And promise to get back to u

Lol, it doesn't work that way. The visa irrespective of the period stated is the same amount

fredoooooo:
Wanderlustan you're going to Rome ? That's a a very beautiful place for tourists . La Roma e Bella (Rome is beautiful )

Yes boss! I intend to tour for a few days then attend mass at the Basilica on Sunday. The Pope will be officiating.

More tunnels under mountains! And there is traffic in the tunnel!

modath:


Just buy me a MK bag too.

Summer 2017..........

Wanderlustian, excellent thread and adventure across Europe. This is breathe taking and I am hoping next year I will take a trip to Europe and other part of the world.

How is your daughter currently kicking?

She's super. Having fun and is excited half the time.

lepasharon:


Nice thread, but how do you communicate and understand whats going on around you ? some of these countries don't speak English

Mehn its quite a chore. I try to talk less and use signals. I also downloaded Google translate thanks to some great guys on this thread. Now o have downloaded a navigation app to avoid getting lost.

I also found out a lot of people speak english even if its just a bit and they don't mind practicinh it with you

[quote author=MrTour post=47293831]Its easier to take already established public transport as it come with ease of navigation across Europe, you wouldn't want to rent a car and drive into a forbidden route and get arrested. Europe is not like Naija, traffic offence is treated like rape case across major European countries.

I am sorry is not a language they understand.[quote]

Thanks for the tip. For this I'm sticking with buses

Seeeeeeee:
How much does one need for the tour please in Naira

Visa 13500
Ticket: was 188,00k for me and baby but that was before cbns flexible policy.
Hotel: Frankfurt: 50 euros
Bus from Frankfurt to Como: 27 euros
Como; had a host, accommodation was free
Como to Milan: 5 euros by train
Milan hotel: 30 euros
Bus from Milan to Rome: 9 euros

Still spending though. I budgeted N350,000 to spend but my bank statement when applying for Visa was just over 600k. I'm trying not to spend more than 350,000 at most 400,000

Heard of spaghetti bolognese? We just stopped over at the Bologna where the sauce originated from!

kachi19:

I don't understand your question

sobastical:
One of the most complex visa to get

Azzin eh! But as he said he has a sponsor. They can try

Ademat7:

I said if you apply for b1b2 visa by yourself you will be denied. Ur sponsor must apply for h1b visa for you from there

The person employing you knows the process. He is expected to do everything from his end
