My stay in Rome was amazing, largely because of Fabrizio’s wonderful hospitality. I had only two full days there, and thanks to Fabrizio, I got to see many of the most important sites because he accompanied me as a tour guide around the city. I never expected this (as it’s not part of the arrangement), but he was so kind and hospitable and drove me into Rome’s city center and took me on a wonderful historic tour of the major sites. It was unbelievably kind of him and I appreciated it so very much – as he spent an extraordinary amount of his own time to show me the city. When one is visiting another country as a tourist, there is nothing better than having a local to show you around and point out things which only locals know. I had a wonderful time and am most grateful to Fabrizio - - it was because of him that my stay in Rome was so memorable. Moreover, his place was such a lovely retreat. It was exceptionally clean and neat and peaceful and I was very comfortable there. I felt at home. He even shared delicious pasta with me the first night I arrived. I couldn’t have asked for a better host.
