It’s been quite a few months now since my trip to Rome, however, though Spring has officially started, there’s snow outside and I caught myself escaping the current weather, if only in my reveries, and thinking about the summer that I have loved the most.

I like to think of Rome as a “poem pressed into service as a city”, as once Anatole Broyard said it was. There’s something about its light, sounds, huge masses of tourists, architecture and almost unbearable heat that makes its summer special like any other. I do believe there’s a right time for everything and waiting for so long to see you, Eternal City, was definitely worth it. And of course the company was a very important factor to the success of such intense days.
