I like the way you set the stage for describing your attraction to and ultimate relationship with Robert in the future chapter(s). You did a good job of providing us with a context and giving us a clear impression of who you were and why. -Joan

I thought you did an excellent job with the background of your early adult life. All in all, it sounds like you had fun, which is what youth is all about. I wish I had been able to travel when I was younger. Linda

Very good story though I believe something happen to the top part of the story.It came up then just got erased. I am reading the bottom under the photo unless you just wrote half a story.What I read is very creative and I am interested in what happens with the Italian fellow.Blessings Rita

A good story of your life
when younger... Robina...

but needs a little tweaking here and there...
Just ignore if not in agreement with any suggestions, my friend.

and,had a vivid - space after comma

I got stuck with - as you've used "stuck" again in this sentence, might you consider..
I got stranded..
I wanted someone who did not all I might like?? confused here.
Fortunately(,) she would not - add comma

decided to go to a museum[.](,) [A](a)n Italian guy joined me. - this needs to be a run-on sentence - thus change period for comma and small "a"

Look forward to the next chapter.

Margaret

An interesting beginning to a biographical story. A good description of who your were and the code you followed. A little dose of rebellion. I liked "My mother once told me the house was not just a hotel." "I like culture and picked a Greek isle with hardly any. " .... so I would at least not have to eat alone.", "This really meant that I had no interest whatsoever. He did not know this of course. These little quips, almost spoken as an 'aside' add flair and interest and offer an insight into your personality.
One suggestion for change:
*"who did not all I might like" - this need tweaking Une, doesn't make sense in English.

You have built the intrigue and the readers is left looking for more information ... and wants to read the next chapter. Well done. I enjoyed the read and the picture is just great.
Warm Regards - :) Lovinia xoxo
