Because I think that most people who are supposed to come across Colosseum
on a Saturday night near a kiosk probably come from Rome and abroad and this
sample is geographically quite limited.
Then most foreigners cannot speak Italian, so, they shoud not be counted in
this context and I think that most of the Italian tourists coming from other
parts of Italy would probably visit the Colosseum during the day...
Besides,
people who are interested in Sweden, which is the country which the page
describes, are often people who like landscapes...
Also, people who are interviewed do not usually say that they are
"cousins".....
Finally (for now) my personal experience and logins play a role as well....
