TRAVEL: Rome

For those of you who have been following me on instagram @flyingfashionblogger might have already noticed that I went on a little citytrip last week. As a flight attendant I'm not only able to visit the most amazing places in Europe, I can fly as a passenger for a reduced price too. So when the boy and I had six(!) days off together (working parttime is paying of!), we decided we wanted to go on a citytrip together. It has been a while, our last citytrip was to Bruges almost two years ago. In the mean time we did go on holiday, but not on citytrips. So after a whole lot of research we decided to go to Rome, which was the best decision!

We booked three nights in Caroline Rooms Rome which turned out to be amazing! It was very close to the Vatican, just a 5 minute walk to the metro station and very clean and beautiful rooms. Not to forget about the host; Caroline is really sweet and helpfull. She had some great tips for us during our stay.


We took the late morning flight from Amsterdam to Rome Fiumicino and arrived in the hotel in the late afternoon. We got a quick lunch on our way to the hotel (a really good pizzaslice) and went outside as soon as we got our hotelkeys. We walked to the St. Peter, which is really close to the hotel. Unfortunately the queue to go inside the basilica was really long and therefor we decided just to wander around for a while. The St. Peter is really beautiful, and so is entire Vatican City.


Eventhough we had some rain on our first day, the weather later changed and the sun made its appearance. It was still a bit cold though, hence the thick wintercoats, but the sun made it way more comfortable. We were a bit tired though so after a nice italian diner around 8pm it was time to go to bed.
