I have decided to start a blog about my new life here in Rome as a way of keeping in touch with friends. As opposed to individual friends asking me how I am getting on, I thought it would be easier to write it down on this so you can all see!
I returned to Rome at the end of January to start my second semester of university here. During my first week back I have rediscovered my love of the city and have been trying to fit in some sightseeing before university starts up again. I am also starting from scratch again with regards to making friends. I was lucky enough to meet so many lovely people in semester one from all over the world. However the majority of these were only in Rome for one semester and it was so sad to say goodbye to them. So along with making new friends comes a lot of socialising and drinking!!! However having Irish blood in me, this shouldn't be too much of a problem.
So on day one I did some wandering and visited the typical sights of Rome-the colosseum, trevi fountain, pantheon.

One thing about Rome is there are many churches. Around every corner you discover a new one and the churches here are in a whole different league. One of my favourite ones is San Ignazio. Its a church where the photos dont do it justice. The church provides such a majestic feeling and it is so calm inside.
