The Long Journey to Italy
Route: Malaysia → Doha → Rome

Alhamdulillah, we safely arrived in Italy at 1:30 PM (local time) on 2 November.
Our journey began at 9 PM on 1 November, starting with the MRT ride to KLIA Putrajaya Express (Terminal 1) before catching our 2 AM flight to Doha and onward to Rome.

Upon arrival, we took the Leonardo Express train, conveniently located just across from the airport, to reach Rome city centre. Only €10 per person for 4 of us (instead of €14 each). Definitely more economical to travel as a group!

About 30 minutes later, we reached the city and walked to our nearby hotel. That evening, we strolled around the Piazza della Repubblica, admired its elegant architecture and iconic fountain. We bought souvenir with only €10 for 12 keychains, a perfect little keepsake from our first night in Rome.

We ended the night with a quick tasting of Italian Pizza. Somehow, my watch showed 330am while it was 9 pm in Rome.
