Food
Great spot for pizza! We found this restaurant after walking all day around the Vatican. It was near our accomodation and in a lovely neighborhood. Good food and atmosphere. Plus, they were open early enough for our son to have dinner.
L'Archetto
Great spot for fresh pasta and seafood. We walked here from our apartment. Great service and plenty of locals dining in.
Il sorpasso
Great breakfast, brunch, lunch spot. The menu is varied and there's something for everyone. We ate here two days in a row because we knew we'd have a great meal.
Caffè Vergnano - Via Crescenzio
We had a great meal here. It was open, which was what we needed at 5:30 p.m. We got quick service and the playlist was a Bruno Mars station. ☺️

Must Have Gear for Me and a 4 Year old
Do not, I repeat, do not leave home without one of these. ☺️ We made the mistake of not having the swiss adapter which is slightly different than the German one and we couldn't use our hatch, camera, or charge our phones. ☺️
Universal Travel Adapter
This tote bag has been to many countries because I use it as my airplane personal bag. I fill it to the brim with all the essential snacks, games, clothes, umbrella, toys. It has a zip top which is amazing! It's lightweight and the handle is the perf...
Take Everywhere Tote Bags
This bag got me through year 1-2.5 with my son. I packed so much into this bag. It has two large side pockets too. The strap adjusts easily and is comfortable when the bag is full. It's so easy to clean too. It fits great on the hip and comes in grea...
Medium Nylon Crescent Bag Black
Get these so you can organize your life. Especially if you have to pack snacks and anything you want to keep separate inside your purse or tote. They come in super cute patterns, and you can never have enough of these pouches. Theyre easy to clean to...
Pouches and Cases
This bag is so useful. We use it for swim lessons, after the pool, after the beach, after a puke, after a pee. It's great to have one or two on hand when you have a small kiddo. It has a spot for a dry set of clothes and the wet side zips away the we...
Wet/Dry Bag
I originally received this bag for my sons cloth diapers. I never used it until he started his swim school. I use it to pack away all of our wet swimsuits, and pack the dry clothes in the front pocket. It's a large bag and has a little carry tab that...
Ruvalino Wet/Dry Bag
I love this water bottle because it fits in my cars cupholder and doesnt leak. Plus, it's cermaic coated so my water tastes smooth and non metallic. Love it, plus it comes in so many pretty colors. oh, and a straw…you need a straw. ☺️
Ceramic Reusable Bottle
Hands down my favorite electrolyte powder. It actually tastes good (which is rare), blends easily, and comes in a ton of flavors. Strawberry is my go-to. I drank this all through my pregnancy to stay hydrated, and I still use it now, especially on da...
Liquid I.V.
My son has had this water bottle since he was about 17 months old. I've changed the lid and straw on it a couple of times now. It's a great size and easy to travel with. We go between this one and a strawless one, but always stainless steel. keeps hi...
CamelBak Eddy Stainless Steel Bottle
Much needed for any trip. We always used to forget it, but now I just pack it straight away and it makes such a difference when sightseeing.

This was one of our first stops in Rome, it's on the way to the colliseum and the Pantheon, and Trevi Fountain. Beautiful.
Piazza Navona
A must see. I fully recommend a guided tour or some sort of ticket bundle that grants you access to a paid experience.
Colosseum
Bucket list. Go here for the experience, throw a coin in and make a wish. It's so beautiful. It looks unreal.
The Trevi Fountain, a timeless masterpiece
Grab tickets to gain entry to the Vatican museums and to see the Sisteen Chapel. You need a few hours to spend here. There is so much to see.
Vatican City
We didn't make it inside the Pantheon, but of course we saw it and took pictures. I would definitely want to go back and see this.
Pantheon
Accommodations
We had a great stay at this quaint apartment in a GREAT location. It was so close to the Vatican, the train, the bus, and restaurants. Great!
