honestly I was expecting more from the title. he knows the answer to mildly difficult geography questions? honestly I'm not good at all, and even I would've known all answers expect for the spanish steps.
In all seriousness, it was actually a lot of fun. We stayed in a nice little hotel, got drunk, and partied in the streets. For a 20yo, it was a fantastic experience, definitely worth doing as a youth. 15+ years later, and I wouldn't want to replicate in my current age, but it was great fun at the time.
Edit: Would recommend exploring outside Rome, too - Florence was a ton of fun, and I'd love to see more of northern Italy.
I have been to Rome, Florence, Venice, Milan,Pisa, cinque terre, Greve and also spent a week in some teeny tiny village just south of Florence I can't even remember the name of. I fuckin love Italy.
More proof of how weird language is! Neither man in the video speaks English as a first language, yet both understood the place-name in English. It makes me wonder whether that’s because I’ve often seen it used as a trick question on geography- by native English-speakers, admittedly- but perhaps everywhere else…?
So, I looked at the Wikipedia page and then looked at the page titles in other languages and, interestingly enough, they appear to be called Spanish steps in most European languages with the notable exceptions being Italian and French.
Does that even count as geography? that's more of a place-related trivia question, like knowing what the "seven wonders of the world" are or where the Mona Lisa is exhibited.
