Rome, or Roma as the Italians call it, is a destination so scintillating that I am still in awe of its jaw-dropping stories. The beauty and the history that Rome tells us is only a very small part of what we can grasp. From its historical artefacts to the delicious Tiramisu, this epic city has something for everyone.
