Rome on a Sunday night

Two of my Milanese coworkers, Ronny and Luca, took me to Piazza del Popolo (Square of the People) to have pizza at a local chain called PizzaRe. After dinner, I suggested a little walk to Piazza di Spagna since it was within walking distance.

How beautiful it was at night! The Spanish Steps was empty, the fountain in front was clean, and there were no tourists. However, just as we noticed how there were no tourists, we saw a large group approaching the square. That's when we decided to find some gelati in a gelateria.

Afterwards, we drove by Piazza Venezia and the Colosseo. This was not my first time to see all this. However, it was my first time feeling the magic of Rome at night.

I am the luckiest girl the entire world!
