Slainte: to your health, the only Gaelic word you truly need in a pub.Ciao serves as both hello and goodbye, from a Venetian phrase meaning I am your servant.Bon voyage: a good crossing. The phrase is older than the aeroplane by centuries.Buen camino: the greeting pilgrims exchange on the road to Santiago.A guest brings good fortune with him.East, west, home is best.A smooth sea never made a skilled sailor.The sea is common to all.All roads lead to Rome.When in Rome, do as the Romans do.A shared journey is half as long.He who has no destination will never have a favourable wind.There is nothing like a dream to create the future.He who is fixed to a star does not change his mind.Look through the keyhole on the Aventine Hill and you see a garden in Italy, a dome in Vatican City and an avenue owned by the Order of Malta.

The missed ferry. The stranger who handed over a key. The meal that ran until midnight. If something happened to you on the road and you still think about it, send it - a few sentences is plenty, and we do the tidying up.
