Italia

Dear Italy,

I would like to come visit you.  My friend Giulia just invited me to come vacation on your beautiful beaches of Sardinia.  However, it seems to be very expensive to fly there.  The upwards of $1000 price tag on a 2-way flight is slightly offensive, and I would much appreciate a smaller bill.

Therefore, I am holding my tourist dollars hostage from you until you decrease the cost of travelling to you.  You have until August.  Something in the range of $600 should do the trick.

Ciao!
