{Roma}

Truthfully speaking I wasn’t really expecting to like Rome, people had forewarned me of scams and graffiti and after hearing everybody’s advice I was set up to be disappointed by the Italian capital. Maybe low expectations are the key to success when visiting new places because this way I ended up being blown away. Sure there are con-artists to watch out for and graffiti on the walls but this didn’t taint my visit in the slightest. For me the charm of Rome lies in the burnt orange architecture with its rundown paintwork, the verandas overflowing with flowers and the doors which are all beautiful and unique in their own way, not forgetting the divine smell of Italian food which haunts your nostrils on every street corner.
