🇮🇹Roma | All My Favorite Places + Experiences
Cortney Van Wilpe
Available for hire
Ah, Rome! The eternal city, a shimmering gem that forever enchants my heart as my first true home away from home. In the vibrant spring of 2019, I danced through the streets of Rome during my Erasmus adventure, marking a pivotal chapter in my life. It was my inaugural leap beyond the familiar borders of my home state, and in those sun-kissed days, I discovered the essence of travel that ultimately wove my path to Thatch✨
This guide is a treasure trove of the places and experiences that shaped that enchanting time, forever altering the lens through which I see the world. It’s all about forging connections with the land, the people, and the rich culture that makes travel truly authentic.
As you journey through this guide, you’ll also pick up useful Italian phrases to sprinkle into your travels! Embrace the charming Duolingo Bird and learn a few expressions before you go. For a deeper dive into the local lingo, I recommend Word Reference—it’s perfect for uncovering those regional gems and situational nuances. Happy travels!

Cibo (Food)🍝
💡Pro Tip: Try to avoid all the restaurants that are fairly close to the historical sites as the food is less likely to taste as good, and you will usually be charged tourist prices. There is a lot or great food in Rome, chose the path of least resistance for the best food and experience!
Pasta Imperiale
@travelswithmissworldwide
This lovely gem of a spot has €5 pasta that you can ask for porta via (takeaway) to have a sit in front of Piazza Navona (about a 5 min walk away) and people watch. Or simply have on the go as you get lost through the gorgeous winding alleyways of the city.

Da Edy
@travelswithmissworldwide
This quaint little spot is locally owned, giving you that slow Italian dining experience that is the beating heart of Rome. I recommend to book this spot one night on your trip! After dinner, indulge in the beauty of Rome at night with an evening stroll! La Piazza da Spagna is very close by-- usually madness during the day, the evening it is just as beautiful, arguably more so after the sunsets.

Osteria da Fortunata
@travelswithmissworldwide
This is a great spot to try the traditional Roman dish Carbonara. This simple, but rich speciality is commonly made throughout Rome and holds a particularly profound history. I encourage you to ask your cameriere (waiter) at the restaurant about its' interesting history!

Fratelli de Luca - Salad&Juice BAR (Prati)
@travelswithmissworldwide
This is a great option for all my carb sensitive friends that might need some extra fiber in their day while they are "roaming" through the city!
