  • Please take your time when visiting Rome, it is a fabulous city with lots to look at, but always try and remember to:

    Smile - it helps when you dont have all the words to express yourself in their lovely language

    Relax - everyone else seems to be so just enjoy your moments, savour the warmth and welcome of a wonderful people

    Be mannerly - always take time to be polite - it costs nothing and it creates a wonderful environment of respect and care. Italian people are some of the most courteous I have met.

    Be aware of the culture of modesty in churches - many of us are less religious today and when visiting churches please remember this is where people come for solace, comfort and prayer, so I try to be unobtrusive and respect their holy places.
