Roma, Caput Mundi
Caput Mundi, or "Center of the World", is a Latin phrase which has been used to describe Rome since antiquity and which expresses clearly the importance the city has held throughout history. Monuments and significant historic sites are found at nearly every corner in Rome; add the chaos of a frenetic, modern city and just about anyone would find it overwhelming.
In fact, the crowds at the major sites should not be underestimated. Overtourism, a modern term coined to describe the negative effects of heavy tourism, reigns in Rome. Luckily, the city is much more than those few sites.
For lovers of antiquity, and those who want to know more about it, I have put together a number of itineraries which attempt to capture the uniqueness and splendor of the ancient city. From Roman bathhouses to museums full of masterpieces of ancient art, these highly renowned sites miraculously manage to stay off of the main tourist path.
All walks and visits are led exclusively by trained archaeologists, with experience in the field, who are adept at transmitting their knowledge and love of this stunning, multi-layered and eternally complex city.
About Me
I was born and raised in the U.S. and moved to Italy when I was at university. I have lived and worked in various parts of the country for over 20 years, spending the majority of my time in Rome. I have degrees in both art history and classical archaeology, and specialized in the history of archaeology and collections of ancient art. I attended Italian university and speak the language fluently.
My direct experience with excavations and laboratory work allows me to offer more than a superficial understanding of ancient Rome; from the excavations of the North-Eastern slopes of the Palatine hill, to my work with frescoes from the Roman ruins of Villa Medici, I am able to provide the most up-to-date data from the world of archaeology in Italy.
