Nice to meet you, we are Linda and Alessandra, two friends of long standing who were born and have always lived in Rome. We met in high school and shared lots of experiences: the school for interpreters and translators, friends, but above all many years of work for Study Abroad Programs of several American Universities.
Thanks to this precious work experience we learnt what it means for a foreigner to live in Italy and, specifically, to live in our city which is with no doubt amazing and captivating but also quite challenging for newcomers.
We helped out students, professors but also visitors to solve all kinds of practical problems and took care of them from their arrival through their departure.
We must say that we have had many and various requests! Housing and classroom spaces, trips and visits, medical assistance just to mention the most common ones. Some were definitely very original like where to buy holy water for grandma, where to rent a plot of land to do some gardening or where to buy some tuna which would taste exactly like the American one. Needless to say that we never got bored over the years!
Our Associates
We work with professionals who are local or perfectly integrated in the city (therefore mainly Romans but not only). We have chosen them because they love sharing their passion with other people and are very knowledgeable and competent!
Archaeologists, architects, art historians, university professors, biologists, nature and walking guides, cooks or chefs, sommeliers, fashion designers, shiatsu therapists, etc….
What more could you ask for?
