Roma, the Eternal city founded by Romulus and Remus. The epicenter of an empire, which stretched to the boundaries of the ancient civilized world. Traditions in Roman law, art and architecture still influence western civilization today.

“La Dolce Vita” (the good life) is what Romans live every day. An example can be seen in the produce markets and neighborhood grocery stores selling fresh vegetables, meats and fish. These ingredients contribute to one of the world’s great culinary traditions. The pungent smell of a hundred different cheeses and sandwich meats intermingled with the aroma of freshly baked bread would drive even a Spartan crazy.

Where to have a leisurely lunch or romantic candle lit dinner? The choices of trattories are maddening. Will it be the side streets off of Piazza Navona or Campo de Fiori? Should we head to the districts of San Lorenzo, Testaccio or the renowned Trastevere? Reasonably priced restaurants all memorable dining experiences.

Is art or history your passion? Try the National Museum, which houses some of the most important archaeological collections in the world. Saunter through the Capitoline or Museum of the Palazzo dei Conservatori for classical statues. How about the Vatican Museums that house countless masterpieces?

It doesn’t matter how much time one spends in Roma, it won’t be enough. The popular saying “Roma, non basta una vita” (Rome, a lifetime isn’t enough) couldn’t be more accurate. Roma is a city to be savored slowly like a fine Chianti Classico at so many levels that even long-term residents have yet to see it all.

Roma’s history is written everywhere, in the palaces, the churches, the ruins, the fountain squares, the streets. “A walk through Roma is a walk through time”.

Experience all this while studying for a TESOL certificate. Maybe with a TESOL you will never have to leave Roma again?
