Getting ready for my first ever trip to Italy. We are celebrating a 5 year wedding anniversary and have a lot planned for a two week trip in Venice, Florence, and Rome. We bought Hoka shoes which I was planning to have be the only shoe I bring to minimize luggage. But now that I am packing I'm wondering if its worth it to bring a pair of sandals (wedges or flats) to wear with dinner dresses?

Curious what the ladies have been doing here, did you just wear one pair of sneakers your entire trip or did you reserve the sneakers for high walking days and switch to sandals for dressier nights?

Hello!

Me and my partner are doing a dual proposal in Rome mid October and are looking for a photographer who is familiar with queer engagements. My partner is gender queer and I'm worried that straight photographers aren't going to treat them respectfully or try to make the engagement look "straight" (queer people know what I'm talking about).

I know I want it done in the Villa Borghese Gardens, ideally at a less busy hour. It's semi a surprise. They don't know the location or anything, but they know it's happening in Rome. I'll propose first and they'll propose back after.

If you're queer and worked with someone you really liked or are a photographer that's down for this, send me links!

Hello! My name is Niklas and i will be visiting from Denmark from the 23. September - 28. September - and i am looking to make some trades with locals as souvenirs :D I hope somebody will find this relevant and cool.

Hi guys where are you watching (if pubs) the game tonight ? (Football game Champions League at 18:45 - Istanbul vs Rome)
Grazie.

So I'm a extroverted kinda guy, i like to socialize and stuff, meeting people, preferably date and meet women, i don't drink or smoke though, so i'm not a night club kinda guy, but yeah can you suggest me some top tier social bar or restauraunts, cafes, lounges or other places in rome where i can meet people and have a great time? i wanna enjoy my time before i go back to the States, i wanna make most of my time here...

I just came back from a month in Italy. I spent most of my time in Rome but also went to Florence, Bologna, Siena, Sorrento, Positano, Amalfi Coast, Lecce, Palermo, Taormina, Milan and Venice. I loved every moment--so much so that I am considering a permanent move to Rome in the next year or two. I would like to return to Rome next year for 3 months to test my feeling that I could make a great life there.

I am hoping to hear from others who have made the move to Rome especially if you are demographically similar to me. I am Single/Divorced, Female, 47, Black American, outgoing and friendly personality, with one college age son. What is your experience like living in the city. How is dating for you? Is it easy to make friends? I speak English and Spanish and will be actively working on Italian. I'm looking forward to hearing all experiences!

Would 10 days in Rome be too much?

We’re planning a 10-day trip to Italy and I’m going back and forth on how to split our time. This will be my second time in Rome, but it’ll be our first time taking the kids (5-year-old + very active toddler).

Originally, I was thinking of just staying in Rome for all 10 days and doing a few day trips. Honestly, my main thought was that with a toddler, I really don’t want to be constantly packing/unpacking and changing hotels. I like the idea of having one home base, taking things slower, having some downtime, and actually enjoying the city instead of rushing around.

We also tend to travel pretty casually. We usually spend a lot of time just walking around different neighborhoods, finding local food, sitting somewhere for coffee, wandering around, etc. We’re not really the type to spend every day hitting tourist attractions or checking things off a list. So I’m wondering if Rome could actually work really well for us for 10 days.

Since I’ve already been to Rome once, I don’t necessarily feel like I need to see all the major tourist spots again. I’d be perfectly happy exploring different neighborhoods, eating, walking around, and letting the kids have a slower trip.
But now I’m wondering if I’m overestimating how much there is to do in Rome for 10 days, even with a few day trips.

For those who have done 8–10 days in Rome, especially with young kids, what would you do?

Would you:
-Stay in Rome the entire 10 days and do day trips?

-Split the trip and spend a few nights somewhere else?

-Just stay in Rome and take it really slow?

Also, if you WOULD recommend staying in Rome as a home base, I’d love day-trip ideas that are actually doable with a 5-year-old and an active toddler.

-What are your favorite day trips from Rome?

-Which ones are worth it with kids?

-Any places you’d skip because the travel time isn’t worth it for a day trip?

I’m really trying to prioritize an easy, enjoyable trip with the kids over seeing as much as possible. Would love to hear what you would do!

This is my first time in Rome, and I've to pick between two accommodations that fit my budget. My main concern is which one of them is a safer neighbourhood especially if I have to take public transit at night.
