Solo travel experience

The experience of traveling to Rome, Italy was truly incredible and extraordinary. For me traveling as a single girl, everything was wonderful and under security. I went to different restaurants in Rome, Italy. I visited the amphitheater and the Colosseum, I visited the Vatican City Museum. Various and very good foods in Italy, including pizza and pasta. In the meantime, I recommend pizzeria located in Piazze del Popolo. I stayed in an old boutique hotel in the old part of the city. I avoided shopping on my trip and didn't buy much at all except for a few magnets and souvenirs so my total trip and the money I spent there was not over 300 Euro. Usually I used to go by taxi, but the taxi was very expensive and at least a taxi would be 10 euros, but I could also choose the nearest metro station and use the metro, also there are city transports like bus.

Solo travel experience

I traveled solo and felt very safe in Rome. I familiarized myself with the neighborhood my hostel was in during the day so I felt comfortable getting around without having to look at my phone constantly. What helped me connect with locals was making an effort to speak Italian and I met other travelers on walking tours and at my hostel.

Solo travel experience

I was in Rome this year in January on a solo trip. I stayed in a hotel right in the center, on Via Nazionale. I walked all day and half the evening, returning very late to the hotel, and nothing happened to me, although I avoided small, dark streets after dark.
