I’ve been lucky enough to have visited the Vatican about three times in my life. I have not visited many catacombs because people tell me they are claustrophobic. I did visit Nero’s excavated palace near the Forum. Unbelievably, it had graffiti from the painter Raphael who had managed to get himself into it!

What a city, what a history.

When my husband and I lived in the middle east for five years our FAVORITE go-to places were Rome, Athens and London. Every place else took YEARS of flying to get to.

ROME...the eternal city. That HAS to be my favorite.

So WHEN is your next sojourn to the eternal city? :o)
