If you are planning a trip in Rome for the upcoming summer and perhaps you have already booked some cultural tours, you know what to do during the day. Then the question will be...what should I spend my nights there? So, obviously there is one way to fill your time: having an aperitivo ( popular way to have booze with friends) or go to dinner. Apart from this you
It's pretty a sure thing, when someone is planning a trip to the Eternal City, Culture and Food are the key words! Nobody will miss a walking tour alonside the most popular sites such as Colosseum or Vatican Museums&Sistine Chapel. Another must is having an Italian dinner in a cozy tavern perhaps in Trastevere! As well as that Rome is a lively capital and
What to do with children in Rome? Many parents ask theirselves this question as soon as they land in the Eternal City. Apparently Rome doesn't seem to offer so much for little ones! Busy streets, plenty of museums, churches, dozens of Archeological sites could be not suitable for childhood fun. Nevertheless is kind of wrong because Rome hides a different world: a
As a traveller I can define myself halfway between a bagpacker and a comfort lover. I have been working in tourism for years.

The Eternal City is a magical scenario to celebrate this special night. That's
Since I moved to Rome my habits in terms of mobility have changed a lot. I come from Salerno, certainly not a big city, and I used to run around from the age of 14 on my beloved motorbike, then I got my first car!

THE WEEKEND HAS FINALLY ARRIVED! Raise your hand if you don't enjoy a well- deserved relaxing time on Saturdays and Sundays, abandoning the weekday frenzy! I must confess that despite being a southern girl, I am a terrible chef and very lazy when it comes to cooking ( even more on Sundays! ). Since I've moved to Rome I discovered the faboulous and trendy concept
Around Christmas everyone behaves, around Christmas time everyone is good! Since we have been little our parents used to warn us to better behave because Santa Claus knew everything, knew if we slept, if we ate, if we have been good or bad and all this could scare us and compromise our fantastic gift!
