Limiting holiday plans

I was talking to one of my former co-workers the other day about trying to doing a joint holiday at some point this year. The first one that seems to align between us is Christmas/New Years. My idea was that we try to find a location approximately halfway between us to make travel easier on both sides. However, she was more than willing to come almost all the way to me and suggested Italy, specifically Rome. She loves Italy and speaks some Italian, which would certainly make life easier. However, all I could think about was food. She is not the most adventurous eater and all I could picture was her wanting pizza, pasta, and gelato and me saying "I can't eat anything here" at every meal. I know I'm letting my new food restrictions take control but I can't seem to get a handle on any other way. I guess a call to the psychologist is in my future.
