Rome. Gardens, pyramids & keyholes with a surprise.
Dear nomads, I hope you are enjoying my Roman adventures. In this occasion we are crossing the very long Circo Massimo heading to the opposite side where the baths are, there we find the small & plain church of Santa Maria in Cosmedin. It is a minor basilica located in the Piazza della Bocca […]
Roman Cathedral, Holy Steps & relics.
Some of you call me the “church girl”, no wonder, I must’ve seen heaps of them in Rome, don’t you think? I flooded my social media, some friends would say, “I see you’re still in Rome, I’ve seen a church on Instagram”, well brace yourselves. I already told you about two of the most important […]
Roman Baths & catacombs in Ancient Rome
Did you like the previous post? I hope you did as this time, going back to the Coliseum as starting point I’ll take you to its left, where there’s the great & magnificent Constantine Arch. The most modern of the triumphant arches, with the peculiarity that it was built with materials of plundered buildings. I […]
One of my favourite Roman spots.
Living a few months in Rome has been one of the best ideas I’ve had in the last few years. I have learnt so much that I’d like to share with you what I’ve seen & felt through my senses & of course, books. I did write a couple of post of another visit with my […]
Cruising the Thames in a sunny day in London
Nothing beats London in a sunny day. It’s fortunate being in London on a day the sun is shining where it´s usually gray, wandering its streets full of history, or in this case, its river. On a Sunday I went to visit Westminster Abbey, place where they crown their kings & queens since 1066, when […]
The Emirate of Kuwait.

Out of all the times I visited it I have to say that December was the month I could venture out & about without melting. Kuwait is one of the richest countries in the world, […]
The kingdom of Bahrain.
This little country of the Persian Gulf is formed by an archipelago of islands being Bahrain the biggest one, which is not that big, it’s only 55 km long per 18 wide. Its people are lovely & kind. Amongst them is Mohamed, a true gentleman who took me around to visit some of the places […]
Naples with Frida & Marco.
I arrived to Napoli Centrale from Roma Termini. The station is opposite Piazza Garibaldi, where a smiley Marco was waiting for me. We took Corso Emmanuelle I, one of the main streets, which was already crazy with cars & scooters. Naples, like Rome, is full of churches, so we stopped at the first one! It […]
