Che bello! I love vintage, when I go back home in June, I'll make sure to stop by then. I love to walk nel quartiere monti. There are also some aperitivo spots there which are not to be miss, especially after spending on shopping! :)
The Newest Vintage Shop to Hit Rome: Blue Goose
I love vintage shopping in Rome—but hate those vintage stores that smell like Grandma's attic. Enter Blue Goose. This little vintage boutique, which opened at the end of last year in Monti (on Via del Boschetto, of course!), is fabulous, well-priced, and anything but musty. While tiny, the sto...
I don't really know this neighborhood even if I am from Rome, I guess this summer when I go I will have to visit and discover it!
A Few of My Favorite Places in Rione Monti, for National Geographic Traveler
It's no secret that I adore Monti, the ancient rione a stone's throw from Rome's Colosseum and forum. Want to find out why? Pick up the April issue of National Geographic Traveler (that's the U.S. version of the magazine), where I've written about some of the area's hidden gems and hottest sp...
Very nice places. I will add Gianicolo, I found it always breathtaking to see the Eternal city from high.
And one more thing are the small streets of rome where you can eat at a small restaurant.
Brava!

It look like you are going to have a busy 2013.
Rome, my hometown, amazing and full of beauty. I see you have a list well organized but how about few other aperitivo places, such as il Gianicolo, Monmarte, il fico and don't miss to go Da Enzo (restaurant) and hit some little trattoria downtown. And the jewish neighborhood have you been?
The ballet use to be a magical place all my childhood, saw many ballet and was lovely! You should also go to il Parco della Musica, there are many shows of any kind and the structures are to die for.
Night life there are many places to see and, just get a friend from town and you can ride along.

I also see your 2013 looks pretty busy, mine too, am planning if will be able to with my boyfriend to check out some of Asia/India, then go back to Italy and spend a weekend in Paris!

This is pretty cool. I wrote an article too about ITALO: http://selectitaly.com/blog/all-you-can-italy/everything-you-need-to-know-about-ntv-italo/
Last time I was in Italy I wanted to go there so back but in the end I couldn't because the train doesn't have a line to Turin yet, which was were I had to go, so I ended up getting the freccia rossa too which is confortable but also more expensive. Next time I hope to get the opportunity of taking it.
Italo Treno, Italy's Newest High-Speed Train: A Love Affair
First ride on the Italo Treno! I've always had a thing for Italy's trains. No, not so much the regional trains, although they get the job done (and are cheap!). But the fast trains. Ask me how I want to get to Milan or Venice from Rome, and I've always replied with the Frecciarossa or Freccia...
Just got back from Rome for a quick visit.
The weather was amazing and even if there are some things of Italy
that dives me crazy I love this city. A quick tip is to don't drive unless
you are use to since everyone is becoming crazier.
Also I noticed how you mentioned about cupcakes and there is a new small
little places hidden in the quartiere trieste called "Bakery house". A small corner
of the US in Rome.
PS: I love the picture you did with your phone and also nice shot of the cupola and Piazza Venezia.

Five Things I Love About the Fall in Rome
From the time I was a little girl, the fall has been my favorite season. It's the time of my birthday, of a fresh start to a new (school) year, of finally being able to cozy up in sweaters and tromp through dry leaves and smell woodsmoke in the air. While I'll always be partial to the gloriou...
This is cool...I wonder why this place looks so familiar.... next to my house around Corso Trieste there was a vetraio that did the same job and her studio was very similar. I remember to love the work she did.
Looking for Glass in Rome? Forget Murano—Head to Monti
Beautiful—and handcrafted—glass from Silice You don't need to head to Murano for handcrafted glass in Italy. When in Rome, just make your way to Monti—and to Anna Preziosi's studio. Anna's tiny workshop, located a 10-minute walk from the Roman forum, is filled with gorgeous glass plates, ...
Wow, those are good tips now that I am going back home for few weeks. Might stop by Le Nou!
I also have a leather small artisanal store next to my house on corso trieste. I love small artisanal stores, just like you do.
The Story of One Artisanal Outfit in Rome
An all-artisanal outfit from Rome This summer, I decided I needed two new pieces: a comfortable dress that I could wear as easily to the beach as to dinner. And a new wallet, since my old one was falling apart. Instead of turning to a chain or department store, as I did in the past, I headed...
Wow! I am in Italian and always talk about Italian food, but didn't know all these facts! Now I feel I know more of my own country! Great article
