So much love for Francesca! Not only is she one of the loveliest people I have ever met - warm, kind, friendly, welcoming, caring - she has amazing style and an absolute gift for making her guests feel special. Staying in her beautifully appointed, elegant, pristine, and totally comfortable apartment makes me feel like I am living a better life. Her tips on where to eat, what to see, where to shop are solid. I am already scheming up a reason to return to Rome so I can experience a bit more of life in Rome through her lens.

A bit more about the apartment... this was my second time staying at Francesca's place, and the location can't be beat for seeing the city by foot. You can see from the photos how beautifully decorated it is. It is incredibly clean and super cozy and perfect for a pair of friends exploring Rome.
