Beyond the Tourists: Insider Tips for A New Life in Rome
Ciao a tutti! Samantha here. I’m thrilled to announce the latest episode of A New Life in Italy podcast, which is dedicated to those of you who dream of calling Rome home or simply want to experience the city in a more authentic way.
Author of "Italy Made Easy", Doug Morris, joins today's episode, sharing his insight after spending a decade in the adored Eternal City.
We start by discussing the unique charm of Rome, where ancient history seamlessly intertwines with modern life. Doug shares what it truly means to wake up in Rome, from knowing your local barista to discovering hidden piazzas that most visitors overlook. He emphasizes the importance of understanding the city's rhythm, which is not always dictated by the clock but by the simple things in life, whether it's sipping cappuccini or listening to the sounds of bustling streets.
Tune in for his top neighborhood recommendations, favorite local eateries, tips for adapting to the Roman way of life, and more! There's nothing quite like seeing a famous city in a new light through the eyes of a local.
To close out the episode, I answered three new questions about renting in Italy, running an online business on a visa, and integrating into local communities without fluent Italian. Do you have questions? Send them our way via the contact form linked here.
