Tu Vuo Fa L’Italiano?
When people ask why my favourite European city is Rome, I usually talk about its place as Italy’s cultural and historical centre, its admirable sense of self-preservation and uniquely ancient-urban texture. Charming cobblestone streets almost too narrow for cars connect mediaeval churches and piazze scattered about like pepperoni in Verona to the churches of Florence and the bridges of Venice, somehow missing the allure of one all-important city: Milan.
