Rome is one of Italy's biggest draws. You know it, and thats why you go there. The locals know it, and thats why they try to avoid you at all costs. So, during tourist high season (August... yes, ALL of August), almost the entire true Roman population heads for the hills (or beaches) to get out of us unruly tourists way. Those locals who ARE left behind are of the, shall we say, "pissed off that I am not on vacation like all my friends" type. This is generalizing, of course, but I was able to be in Rome 4 times this trip, once in the dreaded month of August, October, December, and February. Only in August was I ever treated poorly. Overall, I think Romans are some of the more helpful people that I met in any city, so my advice is to skip the crowds of August and view Roma later in the year.

Less than a hundred Euro for a black pinstripe suit. I'm impressed. But, what's with the Starbuck's in your hand at Feltrinelli?! |
