I have a home! After living out of and lugging around my suitcases for what seemed like forever, I have unpacked and settled into my apartment in Testaccio! The neighborhood is great--there is a farmer's market 1 block away, countless delicious looking food shops and apparently TONS of great restaurants.
My flat mate is a super sweet Italian girl who says that she moved into this apartment, passed to her by friends, because every time a female friend moved in here...she got married a few months later! A good luck charm of sorts. Not sure how I feel about that...
After getting settled, I went shopping at the supermarket for a few things and caused check out line chaos because I didn't weigh and tag my fruit in the fruit department (oops). I will learn soon, I hope...

Ciao Ciao!
I love it! Just what one imagines living in Rome might be like!
ReplyDeleteIt's like you bought your street at Anthropologie.
ReplyDeleteA complete anthropologie apartment!! I love the lighting!!
ReplyDeleteGlad you're settled. Saw Robin's Rome photos last night and got excited for you all over again. They were in town for Jenny Fay's (sister of Michael...) wedding and Monte says he misses you!
