Rome

“More early aughts gold. If you like good TV and history, watch Rome. Ciarán Hinds is the ultimate Gaius Julius Caesar. Pair it with some In Our Times episodes for extra color: Julius Caesar The Roman Republic The Augustan Age”

“La Matriciana dal 1870 for a stunning dinner, Villa Borghese for a gorge stroll, the whole Monti area for vintage (loved Cavalli e Nastri). And find some reason to go to Palazzo Talia just to snoop (can’t believe I got to stay there).”
