Getting paid while on vacation!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Well Europe is alive and well. Expensive, but after actually touching the table where Joyce used to write, and visiting Gogh's museo, my thirst for art has been filled.

I think I have found the flip side of the coin.
As I walk the streets here in Italy, I see countless western women, dressed in summer dresses, out looking for GUYS! Yes, the guys in Korea have a fascination with the women, well western women here have a fascination with ITALIAN MEN! No joke! I have been stopped twice with by western women calling out "prego..........dove e .................... blah blah blah" Great pick up lines. I responded in English, and the girls both blushed and walked away. My first thought reminded me of the guys in Korea, sitting in bars looking at the locals. The western girls go out in packs, mini skirts, perfume, and drink, drink and drink. Their quest for a romantic lover can sometimes be fun to watch. A lot of the guys I met here are not actually Italian. They are from Albania, or Serbia, and pose as local "Medici" and get lucky quite often. One more month in Europe, and my bag is already packed with olive oils with basil, jars of pesto, and a few bottles of Irish beer.

Yeah, it's called vacation pay, and in many countries it's mandated by law. Welcome to the working world.

In all fairness, it's the summer... that's when Europeans leave on holidays to get away from all the tourists.

I agree with itaewonguy. Most of the Albanians, Serbs and Romanians are all illegal immigrants, some of whom go around begging, stealing, raping, robbing and killing people, including foreign tourists, who then leave Italy with the idea that Italians are thieving B******s. It's about time the Italian government got tough with illegal immigration especially if they want to avoid any terror attacks.
