About Rome Actually
Hi, I am Angela Corrias, after living in Rome on and off for almost 20 years, I felt there was a great need for an insider’s travel blog entirely focused on Italy’s capital. Being one of the world’s hottest tourist destinations, it’s natural that you are going to find Rome city guides everywhere online.
Rome Actually is different. We live in Rome, we incessantly explore the city, we always discover something new, be it a new restaurant, a new archaeological excavation, a lesser-known neighborhood.
