Trip started in Brussels

After I decided to take holidays in Rome, I happened to know that 4 of my classmates would also go to Rome, then north of Italy. Their original trip agenda shocked me: 1.5 day in Rome, 1 day in Florence, 1 day in Pisa, 1 day in Venice, 1 day in Salzburg, 1 day in Vienna and fly back from Milan. I tried to convince them to at least skip Vienna...anyway, I got chance to travel with some people from Latin American, spend time together in Rome and got to know them a bit more.
Travel is really a good way to explore people 360 degree regarding their personality, character, attitudes towards money, value of life, way of thinking, communication, intelligence, and physical situation :-)
First stop was Brussels since we all had flights leaving from Brussels airport. Mine left at Brussels International with Virgin airline, the rest of them left at Charleori airport with Ryanair (1.5hr by train/bus from Brussel Midi)
