Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
We live in a residential area, well connected to the city center and to all facilities. With the subway, you get directly to the Colosseo in less than 20 minutes. Our favourite restaurant is "Da Enrico" on the same street where we live, two minutes walk toward Piazza Bologna. We get fresh vegetables and food from the open market just around the corner. You can't miss the mozzarella from the "Caseificio Pugliese". Try the "nodini", you'll get addicted. We don't have a car. We use bikes and public transoport.

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
From our place, all main attractions in Rome are at an easy reach with public transport, subway and Rome.
We suggest to take time for a relaxing walk in Villa Torlonia, 10-15 minutes from home, an historic park with peculiar architecture (Casa delle Civette, Serra Moresca).
Two important sites that are not close but well connected with subway+regional transport are the archeological areas of Villa Adriana and Ostia Antica, less touched by the large number of turists that visit Rome every year, but absolutely stunning and worth the entire trip to Rome.
