    I love Italian food, and your photos are beautiful! They made me hungry… When I decided to spend my holidays in Italy last summer I booked a flat in a website that has many holiday apartments in Rome and the owner of the flat I was staying in cooked me a “piatto spaghetti” that I will never forget! I’m looking forward to coming back again…
