VIDEO CALL Serena

Hi, I’m Serena, your local host in the Eternal City! Rome is my home, and there’s nothing I love more than sharing its charm with visitors. Do you know how many bakeries and pizzerias there are in Rome? Endless! But if you want the best pizza in the city, I know where to take you. I live in the picturesque Garbatella neighborhood, a gem of low houses, shared gardens, and captivating stories—it’s like stepping into a village within the city. I adore introducing friends to its unique history and design. Food is love in Italy, and I’m passionate about sharing Rome’s history, art, and irresistible cuisine. When I’m not savoring the city’s flavors, you’ll find me hunting for treasures in flea markets or uncovering the legends hidden in Rome’s iconic neighborhoods, from Trastevere to Testaccio. Let me show you the Rome I know and love—you’ll fall for it, too!
