Five Things

{View from the rooftop terrace at our hotel}

We arrived in Rome on Tuesday after an incredible wedding weekend (more details to come later!) and I’ve already fallen in love with the city. We’ve done our fair share of touristy stops, which we’ve balanced out with fantastic meals in tiny restaurants, tons of walking, and quite a bit of lounging at our hotel. It’s been a nice change of pace to not even have access to my phone and I can’t wait to explore the other cities on our itinerary.

    Honeymooning in Roma! Have a loving, romantic time of your life!
    Be sure to rent bicycles in Forte dei Marmi, one of my favorite places.

    Rome is so amazing!

    A must-go is Caffè Greco , near Piazza del Popolo if I remember well!
    And you’ve got to taste Tartuffo, it’s THE dessert in Rome.

    Enjoy!
