    BILL CLINTON
    February 12, 1999 - U.S.A.

    The five-week period during which Bill Clinton was being tried had ended on this day. The Senate voted to acquit Clinton on charges of perjury and obstruction of justice. The trial was set in order to determine whether or not President Clinton would be impeached. Before the beginning of the trial, a lawsuit was filed by Paula Jones against the president on the account of sexual harassment charges. During this process, she had subpoenaed Monica Lewinsky, who had an affair with Bill Clinton over the period of a year and a half. Later Clinton had denied having sexual relations with Monica Lewinsky, but had admitted that the relationship was "inappropriate." Over time, it was clear that the affair had taken place, and the president had approved up to three articles of impeachment. However, he was determined to be "not guilty" on other charges, such as lying under oath and obstruction of justice.

Vacation Rental: The Concept

In recent years, the practice known as vacation rental has gained popularity. Fully furnished flats or houses are temporarily leased to tourists. The arrangement is more long-term than a hotel stay because while hotels charge guests on a daily basis, rental flats, Rome-based ones most specifically, had a fixed price during an entire holiday period. Sometimes, landlords impose a limitation on the maximum number of guests allowed.

Why Choose Rental Flats?

The rental flats Rome proffers to visitors provide a practical means for saving money. Rental flats can be very cheap, particularly when you are traveling with your family or in a group. The more people who will split the bill afterwards, the higher the savings are. In some cases, you can save as much as 60% on accommodation expenses.

There's another advantage to staying in a rented apartment. Through rental flats, Rome and its culture can pervade the ordinary tourist's life. What better way to get to know a city and its people if not from the inside of a Roman home?

Additionally, most rental flats are located close to the magnificent structures the city is famous for. You can thereby explore the city at your leisure, and discover its charms at your own pace and in your own time.

Getting that Roman Holiday

If you plan to visit Rome, talk to your travel agent. Solicit his advice. It's highly likely he will offer you a pre-planned package option along with his advice. Be warned, though, that holiday travel packages are not always the most reasonably priced options in the market. To save money, you could plan your trip yourself. Many online sites, such as http://www.Holiday4You.com to provide you with the information you need to plan your vacations efficiently and effectively.

It is very easy to fall in love with a city as beautiful and historically significant as Rome. In fact, when the great German writer Johann Wolfgang von Goethe visited Rome for the first time, he enthused, "In Rome, I have found myself for the first time. I now realize all the dreams of my youth."

Goethe fell in love with the city. If we give the city half a chance, so would we.
