(Romereports.com) Over the years millions of students have traveled all the way from Latin America to Europe to take on a unique adventure. Rome is one of the key stops in the so called InterRail train pass. So many youths take advantage of this, to see the Pope up close.

“It's
important to say 'I went to Rome', but not only did I go to Rome, 'I
also saw the Pope. 'It's an inexplicable feeling. We went inside and
asked each other 'Do you feel something' 'What is it'? I don't know what
it is, but it's a very strong and beautiful sensation.”
These Argentinians
say their trip has been a unique and unforgettable time. In fact, they
say that despite everything they've seen and experienced, seeing the Pope has been one of the highlights.

“I
just wanted to hug him. We tried to get closer because people were
holding his hand and kissing it. We wanted to get close enough to hug
him. Out of nowhere, it's very striking to suddenly hear, 'Long live the
Pope.' People don't stop clapping. It's actually very powerful, to see
just how important the Pope is to people.”
Every Wednesday
similar experiences take place, when thousands of people from every
corner of the world, visit the Vatican to hear the Pope's general audience and the catechesis he gives to Christians.
