In 1997, by chance, I was given a 10,000 lire banknote that features the hand-written message shown on the right. →
Karen's words may have been dedicated to the whole country, but since I found the banknote (or, better, the banknote found me) here in Rome, I like to think that her appreciation was inspired by this city in particular.


This sounds to me as a modern version of a message in a bottle, so I would be pleased to get in touch with Karen, trace the story of her banknote and - why not? - meet her on her next visit to Rome.
Therefore, I would be grateful to anybody who could help me contact her.
