Default I'm going to Rome next week for a few days.
I'm so excited!
I'm going to get a map and walk into town
My hotel isn't far from the centre.
When it gets dark I'll get the underground.
My favorite area is The Foro. Such a fascinating place with so much history!

i love Rome, but i did it in the days before sat nav and got totally lost on several occasions . Some of the squares are enormous and if you go in the wrong direction, you can be there all day

Beautiful city, hated crossing the road though, felt like you were taking your life in your own hands ever time , enjoy Ness!

Yes, you need to be careful. Italian drivers are mad

My hotel is in central Rome. So I can walk to the Coliseum area.
But Rome is big, so if I want to see some other areas I'll need the underground.

Fabulous.

I love Rome, it's one of my all time favourite cities.
Love Italy overall too.

Hope you have a great time Vanessa.

Have a great time, Ness.

I was supposed to be going to Geneva once (about 15 years ago now) and I’ve talked about it here-and-there with a buddy who lived in Italy for years but it’s materialised. So naturally I’m well-je’l. of anyone who does go. I hope you love it.

Have a giant plate of pasta on me.
