Italian Villas are great places to stay on a holiday, Italy as the birthplace of the Roman Empire is in some ways the home of Villas. With Villas built from Pompeii, to Rome, to Northern Italian vineyards, with people toiling under the Roman yoke, to Sicilian coasts overlooking places where Roman Vessels may have fought pirates, or pirate fleets or rival fleets, like from Carthage. Villas could be in many places bringing pleasure to your holidays, why not eat Italian food there, Calzones, Pizzas, Curry Calzone, Spaghetti, meatballs, and more. Or maybe see Italian stuff, like AC Milan, Inter Milan, Juventus, and co. Italy has some of the world's most ancient tourist resorts, dating back to the time of the Roman Republic, when destinations such as Pompeii, Naples Ischia, Capri and especially Baiae were popular with the rich of Roman society. The Grand Tour was the traditional travel of Europe undertaken by mainly upper-class European young men of means. The custom flourished from about 1660 until the advent of mass railroad transit in the 1840s, and was associated with a standard itinerary. So Italian Villas, may have patios, and verandas, and Italian plants growing aside.
Biography of Rebecca Romero
Height: 6 foot 1.82 m
Date of birth 24 January 1980
Weight 73 kg (160
lb)
British Cyclist / Rower
Rebecca Jayne Romero is a sportsperson, a former World Champion
and Olympic Games medallist at rowing, and a reigning World and Olympic champion
track cyclist.
Biography
Romero was born in Carshalton, Surrey, of an English mother and Spanish father, and brought up in Wallington, Surrey where she attended Wallington High School for Girls . Her success in both sports has meant that she has been funded as a full-time athlete since graduating from university. She went to St Mary's College in Strawberry Hill, where she studied Sports Science and English, gaining a 2.1 in 2002. She has a postgraduate diploma in Marketing Communications, which she gained in 2006.
Romero has won world championships in both sports; as a rower, she won a silver medal at the Athens 2004 Olympics in the quadruple sculls, and the following year was part of the British crew that won the 2005 World Championships in the quad sculls. Suffering from a persistent back injury, Romero retired from rowing in 2006. She later took up track cycling, and made rapid progress in her new sport, specialising in track endurance events.
In December 2006, Romero won a silver medal in the pursuit at the UCI Track World Cup event in Moscow - her international cycling debut - losing out to fellow Briton Wendy Houvenaghel.
Romero won her first Cycling World Championships medal in March 2007 with silver in the 3km pursuit. The following year, at the 2008 UCI Track Cycling World Championships, held in Manchester, she won the individual and, (with Houvenaghel and Joanna Rowsell), team pursuit events.
She became the first British woman ever to compete in two different sports at the Olympic Games when she rode in the individual pursuit in Beijing. In winning the gold, she also became only the second woman of any country (after Roswitha Krause of East Germany) to win a medal in two different sports at Summer Games.
Romero appeared nude on her bicycle in an advert for Powerade sports drink in the run up to the 2008 Summer Olympics.
