Hi! I’m Federica, a native Roman with a degree in Foreign Languages and Literatures. I have always been passionate about Rome’s history—its transformations over the centuries, the figures who shaped it, and the events that defined its destiny. I love uncovering and sharing lesser-known details about the city—stories often overlooked by tourists and even many locals: forgotten historical events, curiosities about monuments, and hidden corners that preserve traces of the past. My goal is to share these fascinating stories with you, so you can see Rome from a new perspective, beyond its most famous landmarks. If you have any questions or want to explore a particular aspect of Rome’s history, feel free to ask! I’d be happy to tell you more :)
