40 calls for journalism/writing pitches (November 28, 2023)
When in Rome, arrive way too early and find yourself needing to fill six hours before the Airbnb is ready. Drag case around bumpy cobbled streets while promising next time to plan better. Walk up a large meandering hill to a large fountain and snap selfie against the cityscape, wondering where all the skyscrapers are. Pay 13 euros to get into a tiny art gallery just to kill a bit more time. Have a coffee in a cafe then walk to another cafe and have another. With heart pounding, decide bar crawls are actually easier and perhaps healthier than cafe crawls. Walk along the Tiber, sip from ancient water fountains, find rare comfort from sun patches in the zero-degree morning. Finally enter Airbnb, and realise an hour-killing morning can be pretty satisfying.
