Since fall is absolutely my favorite season, I found (and wanted to share) some articles about awesome fall things in Italy. What are your favorite fall destinations, events, and activities in Italy?

We're starting to seriously consider a Christmas trip to Rome. How cold does it get? Should we be prepared for snow?

This may be a no-brainer for a lot of people, but definitely make the most of public transportation. Especially in the larger cities, it's a cheap and easy way to get around.

When I last went to Italy, I'd been regularly studying Italian and spoke it pretty well. Now it's been years and I remember very little. Outside of the major cities, like Rome, how hard will it be to get around and shop/eat/travel without Italian?

Just sharing some of my favorite pics from Rome in 2005 and 2007.

Hi everyone - happy to be here. I've been to Italy twice, both times based in Rome for several weeks doing art history/archaeology work ... but it's been probably fifteen years since I've been to Italy.

Now we're looking at coming back around Christmas to go to Rome, and making trips to Florence, Venice and Naples later in 2022. I'm just excited to be here, see what everyone else has going on, and get/give advice along the way!
