Rome Through the Mist:

Welcome to my site! If you’re visiting because you’re a regular reader of Italia! Magazine, or perhaps of German Life Magazine, it’s great to meet you again. You can sample a selection of my magazine pieces by clicking “Articles”, and “Photo Gallery” will take you to a collection of images.

Click “Books” or hit the “Sample Chapter” button for a quick peek at our guide to walks in Rome using the city’s famous fountains as mileposts. For example, our very first walk (see below) takes us from Piazza Barberini to the top of the Quirinale Hill, and on the way, between the fountains, you’ll find monks’ bones decorating a crypt, a bar with Rome’s most artistic sandwiches, the memorable location of an iconic movie scene, an underground “City of Water”, the President of Italy’s palace, a grand piazza with sweeping views of Rome, two beautiful baroque churches, and a hilltop corner where you can see three of Rome’s standing obelisks at once - and much more!

You’re invited to “Follow the Fountains and Find the Real Rome!”
