TE Destinations: Monti!

[@sumpter180286]

'I never realised what I looked like walking downstairs' got me! Rob took me to Valentino's 14 years ago after we did our first training tour of the Foro Romano (he was training me, he's almost as old as some of the stones).

"he's almost as old as some of the stones" - fell off my sofa laughing 😂

[@ThroughEternity]

Dearest Ian, thanks for commenting. Im glad someone gets my humor. I had originally added along with that line, "Why didn't anyone tell me?" but we edited it out. Revenge will be had for the comment of being "old as the stones" comment. 😂😂😂😂😂

[@ThroughEternity]

@@philippadavidson5304 I hope that no injury was incurred whilst laughing and falling off the couch. One should always be careful of their hips lest they should break. 😂

[@mariaraymond3063]

Before you said it I thought “Look how happy his is bouncing down those stairs”

[@ThroughEternity]

@@mariaraymond3063 Hahahaha. You are right Maria, I think I was actually pretty happy at that moment while walking down the stairs. 😊

[@robertallyn6448]

These Destination videos are really giving a distinct idea of the different neighborhoods and sites of Rome. Now I would really like to live in Monti, the Jewish Quarter and the Renaissance Rome areas. Also I love how the cocktail at the end matches Rob’s shirt. 😃

Complimenti per il tuo lavoro, il servizio è stupendo, anche mentre fai vedere tutta Roma.

[@ThroughEternity]

Grazie Mille Giuliano. Spero che siate contenti delle riprese. Ho fame ogni volta che guardo la bruschetta nel video. 😊😊😊

I have a question: minute 1’35”. Is that area safe?… were you kidding when you mentioned that?..just checking… planning to stay exactly almost near that corner..great video!!!Thanks in advance

[@ThroughEternity]

Ciao Maria El, thanks so much for watching and commenting on the video.

[@ThroughEternity]

We were kidding a bit, it was known as a place for ladies of the evening but lots of areas of Rome had that. Monti is totally safe and a great place to stay when visiting the Eternal City.

[@mariannedavidson5937]

Yep, love the stair walk! And under the church ... That is a great area of Rome

[@ThroughEternity]

Thanks for the stairs support Marianne. 😂 So glad you enjoyed the video. Your written comments are much appreciated.

[@caterinapanetta3619]

Love the chapel of St. Zenone! The clouds in Medieval mosaics always make me think of colorful Ravioli... 😂😂😂😂😂

[@philippadavidson5304]

🤣

[@ThroughEternity]

Ciao Caterina, thanks for commenting! Colorful Ravioli? An interesting comparison and now I will be thinking of pasta when I look at some of the beautiful mosaics of Rome. 😂😂😂😂

[@richardcieply]

Great video. What’s the name of the church with several skeletons in it? Thank you.

[@philippadavidson5304]

how rude sticking out your tongue at your long suffering cameraman but he got his revenge catching your swagger down the steps 🤣 lovely to see terrific Thomas making a guest appearance and what a smashing priest allowing you entrance to the underground portion, what church was that?

[@ThroughEternity]

Ciao Philippa, sticking one's tongue out was surely made in gest. 😉It was a joy to be able to include Thomas in the video. He and other guides will be making appearances in future videos with us.

[@ThroughEternity]

The church is called San Martino ai Monti. Truly lovely and the underground area was a fantastic hidden treasure indeed!

[@philippadavidson5304]

Great video and fun to see the local spots where you like to eat and drink. I'd love to know the name of the churches. Can you list them please?

[@ThroughEternity]

Ciao Romewise. Thanks for the feedback and for the helpful suggestion. 😉 I actually was writing them up but I need to figure how to get the timelink so that people can click on them be taken to those spots directly.

Have you ever been to the Monti area before?

[@FedeVox83]

Did you get lost? 🤣

[@ThroughEternity]

We wouldn't be guides if we didn't get lost, now would we? 😂😂😂
