That's a play on words, see we are both maidens blogging, and this is the first i.e. maiden post in our blog. Clever, non?
So, Meg and I will be pursuing adventure and excitement across the continental continent for an entire month. So far we have decided the route, checked all the train connections, picked out our hostels, and made a list of things to do (not including any actual sightseeing, which we will of course be doing almost every day).
Travel To Do List
* Tell strangers silly lies about our lives/beliefs
* Wear some crazy arty sunglasses and take weird possibly myspace-worthy photos
* When in Rome, say "When in Rome" a lot.
* Drink lots of coffee in little cafes or in sun-drenched squares
* Take travel speakers and enjoy impromptu sing/dance-along sessions together
* Somehow persuade local Italian boys to drive us around on their mopeds
* Go to an opera and dress up for it
* Take pictures of all the gorgeous architecture, and some beautiful backstreets too
* Visit some art galleries and museums, find some famous things to brag about seeing
* Go window shopping in expensive shops
* Lounge in the sun listening to jazz
* Sit around in trendy coffee shops reading intimidating literature e.g. Kafka, Chekov, Proust
* Wear floaty flimsy dresses in a tragically chic movie star way
So, that is our vision for the trip. I hope you enjoyed this little starter blog,
Mojo

Meg, Mojo - the epic romp sounds like it's going to be brilliant. I'd like to talk about featuring your blog on my travel site, www.statravelbuzz.co.uk. Can you drop me an email to molly [at] statravelbuzz.co.uk? Thanks! Molls
Hostels and not expensive hotels can vary their prices at any moment in time so it can pay to book before time, mainly during the peak time.
Though a lot of hostels now offer private rooms with en-suite facilities, the ambiance is still very dissimilar from that of your standard hotel.
A hostel with a meager name with defense is not a hostel which is going to last long and not a great place to stay.
Residing in hostels has long been the result for students and younger backpackers seeking affordable holidays.
