Кто бы что не говорил - для меня #колизей - это первое что приходит в голову при слове #рим . Такой магнит, я бы хотела почаще гулять вокруг, пить кофе, сидеть неподалёку в сквере или ловить снежинки (такого еще не было). Именно снаружи, внутрь как-то больше не тянет. А вот эти арки, окна, округлая форма и мощь - вдохновляют. Сейчас рядом ведут строительные работы (уже давно), краны мешают +шумно и без туристов. Попрощались с колизеем и решили ехать дальше. #италия #европа #путешествияия #путешествия #traveling #italy #ITALIA #europe #ROME #mysweet #colosseo

Dark Rome

08.05.19 • Rome, Italy • Yes same coat different day #sustainablefashion #oootd 🤗 First night in Rome was of course a coin toss into the Trevi Fountain where I managed to get a photo with no one else in it despite the 3 million of people around me... and pizza piccolobucoroma one of our now favourites. Do yourself a favour and get the margherita minus the cheese and add mushrooms and roasted eggplant (aubergine) instead!

🎶 La Poison - Super Hero 🎶 Everybody wants to be an influencer nowadays, right? Social media are made for it! 📱📲 Some users look there for money & fame, others for social validation via likes, comments and shares, the (huge) rest consumes becoming a great audience for brands and fake news 🤔 But don't we all tend to trust a bunch of virtual acquaintances trying to influence us to their own advantage (= manipulate)?! 😱 #strangerinrome #thoughts

reminiscing early AM strolls in Rome 想念在羅馬漫步的早晨在義大利印象深刻的一天，因還沒見到陽光就出門了。先晃到羅馬競技場，發現自己真的太早出門，但沒人影的羅馬真好獨特、好美。天嘔嘔，沒什麼好看就跑去特雷維噴泉。中午人山人海的景點竟然只有一群剛從夜店出來的年輕人⋯慢慢走向噴泉還能聽見水的聲音，覺得很值得但超級冷！等快要日出才離開，走向羅馬競技場附近的一座小山看日出。 #義大利麵吃到(臉)圓夢 #路人覺得地板特別美
