Hey there! I'm Shiva, your friendly local host here in Rome. What I adore most about Rome are its hidden gems – the tranquil villas and parks where you can escape the hustle and bustle yet still feel the heartbeat of the city. You'll often find me immersing myself in multi-cultural events, and meeting new people from diverse backgrounds. And oh, the cuisine! From delicious street food to exotic international flavors, I'm always on a mission to taste the city's foodie delights. I know Roma Est, Centro Roma, Pigneto, and Piazza Vittorio Emanuele like the back of my hand, and will show you the most amazing places! Whether it's dancing the Tarantella or exploring cultural hotspots, I've got you covered. Let's embark on an unforgettable Roman adventure together! See you soon.
