So you’ve heard of House Hunters…well I have lived the real thing “House Hunters Italy...my version”. For the past 20 years I have been in Italy more than 50 times, following leads, driving up dirt roads in Tuscany, winding roads in the Val d’Orcia, country lanes in Puglia, mountain ridges in the hills of Umbria, and more….finding the perfect villa to match your dreams…and create memories.

Eataly, the chain of high-quality Made in Italy food outlets, launches in the newly-opened Boarding Area A at Rome's Leonardo da Vinci airport, better known as Fiumicino.

The arrival of Eataly at Fiumicino marks the first time the celebrated food emporium has opened in an airport.

The 2,000-sqm outlet, which has seating for 300 people, will be run in collaboration with Autogrill, the Italian-based, multinational catering company.

The Timeless Magic of Rome’s Colosseum

There’s something special about iconic sites—they evoke powerful feelings even before you see them. Mention the Colosseum, and you’re already transported to the heart of Rome, imagining its grandeur and the history it holds.

Whether it’s your first visit or your tenth, standing before this 2,000-year-old marvel never fails to inspire wonder. From its ability to seat over 50,000 spectators to its ingenious design that hosted everything from gladiatorial combats to mock naval battles, the Colosseum stands as a testament to ancient Roman innovation and culture.

For me, it’s not just about its history but the feeling it stirs each time I see it. Whether approaching on foot through the ancient Forum, catching a glimpse from a taxi as you pass Piazza Venezia, or admiring the starlings overhead at sunset from the Vittorio Emanuele II monument, the Colosseum reveals something new every time.

Rome is never “been there, done that.” The eternal city offers fresh perspectives with each visit, and the Colosseum is at the heart of that timeless experience.
