As someone who has lived in Rome for a year now, it was definitely trial and error when figuring out the best ways to explore the city, but I think I now have it figured out. I remember the very first day I was here, I hopped on a random city bus and sat by the window to see all of the sights and to get a feel of the city – I will never forget this moment for many reasons; 1. After we had gone through the entire city I had to figure out how to get back and I ended up getting on the wrong bus and going completely in the opposite direction all alone! 2. The roads in Italy are insane. I mean like hold-on-to-your-boobs-because-you-are-going-to-lose-one-of-them kind of crazy. So, while that was an interesting experience, let me tell you some of the better ways to get around so you don’t end up like me 😉
