What’s the experience like?

Hands in pockets, I watched our driver wave from the curb outside our little hotel near Campo de’ Fiori—he was early, which was honestly a relief because my nerves always kick in before flights. He greeted us by name (I still don’t know how they always pronounce it right here) and insisted on taking my suitcase, even though I tried to help. The morning air smelled faintly of espresso and rain on old stones—Rome in April is unpredictable like that.

The car was spotless and cool inside, a quiet bubble away from the city’s usual honking scooters. Our driver chatted about his favorite football team (Roma, naturally), then pointed out the spot where Fellini filmed a scene—not that I could see much through my own sleepy haze. It took maybe 40 minutes to reach Fiumicino Airport, but I barely noticed time passing. There was something oddly comforting about watching the city slip past while someone else handled the chaos for once.

I’d worried about fitting all our bags (my partner always packs too many shoes), but he just smiled and rearranged things until everything fit. No fuss, no eye rolls. When we pulled up right at our terminal, he wished us “buon viaggio” with a little nod—simple gesture, but it stuck with me. For all the times I’ve wrestled luggage onto trains or waited for taxis that never came… this felt easy. Maybe that’s why I keep thinking back to it when people ask how our Rome trip ended.
