When I go back to Rome I am not an ordinary tourist, and Rome is not an ordinary city. I lived most of my life among the grandiosity of the churches, the fountains and the monuments. When I visit I need to immerse myself again in the irresistible atmosphere of the Eternal City. One of my preferred spots is Campo de’ Fiori, the oldest and most colorful farmer’s market. Please join me and my sister in this short excursion.
