Everything in Rome is saturated with history. But what really stood out to me is how large everything is. The Colosseum, Trevi Fountain, the Pantheon, the voice levels, the hand gestures, the hospitality, and don't get me started about the pizza and pastas. If Rome had a tagline, I am pretty sure it would be "Rome, Go Big or Go Home!" A tagline that doubles as a metaphor for life. I pondered this concept for the duration of my trip.
Here are five of my favorite memories from my time in Rome:
The Pantheon
The streets of Trastevere
Lunch at L'Angolo Divino Enoteca (a divine little wine bar near Campo Dei Fiori)
A flock of nuns near the Colosseum.
You see this type of adornment throughout Rome. Charming.
"The culture of Rome just doesn't match the culture of Yoga, not as far as I can see. In fact, I've decided that Rome and Yoga don't have anything in common at all. Except for the way they both kind of remind you of the word toga."
- Elizabeth Gilbert (Eat, Pray, Love)
