Hello, dear poppets! I'm back from Rome and catching up on work. I will get to your emails and to a proper post later today. These days I don't take my computer to the continent, but I am thinking that I really need a smartphone.
All I'll say for the moment is that there are really cool never-married ex-pat Single people, priests and lay, living in and around Rome, working and feasting and sunning themselves and generally having a great time. There's a few married people, too, with babies who are fun to play with.
I think it would be incredibly awesome to be Single and Catholic in Rome. More awesome to be Single and Catholic in Rome than in Toronto, that is for sure.
Well, I guess I'll buy my ticket!
ReplyDeleteI am also just back from a holiday walking in the Swiss alps. I went to the weekly Mass in a nearby village and there were only ten people in the congregation,all at least thirty years older than me. Quite a different experience!
ReplyDeleteCool, I'm going there in a couple of weeks!
ReplyDeleteI am planning a trip to Rome in 2015. I expect to meet my husband there. I'm sure he will be from Iowa or something, but I'll meet him on the trip!
ReplyDeleteOoh! Careful about men on trips. I know a woman who got engaged to an Aussie she met on a trip. She moved to Australia to live with him before the wedding, and he actually beat her up. (This is not a slur on Australians, just a warning that men you meet on holiday, when they are also on holiday, may not be what they seem.)
