You don't know how to book a plane ticket or your don't have the money to get it?

I was in Rome......went over there with my husband for his job back in 1976......We thought we were only going to be there 2 weeks.....turned out we were there for 5 weeks & my parents had purchased me a round trip ticked for the 2 weeks. I don't speak Italian....but I was able to find a ticket agency in downtown Roma.....we were staying out in EUR......it wasn't difficult to arrange that.....or can you get a ticket through the internet....many people buy plane tickets over the internet....I would imagine that works no matter what country you are living in.
