31 Places To See In Rome : Free Kindle Book

Editor's Note: Planning a trip to Rome? Thinking about it? Well make that trip truly memorable by getting this informative and comprehensive guide to this amazing city. We can smell the espresso from here! 

I highly recommend this book as a travel guide. It's a must have when you're going to or planning to go to Rome.


Book Description: Rome is beautiful, rich in culture, art and history, colorful and full of life. Some even call it the most desirable and liveable of the world's capitals. “The Eternal City” offers you famous historical monuments and ruins, ornate and majestic churches and priceless artwork. Life in Rome rightfully is called La Dolce Vita.

There are so may things to see in Rome a lifetime certainly isn't enough. However, for a start, we have provided a list of 31 of the most important places to see to get you started.

Author's Inspiration: The city of Rome itself and her experience from living there. 

From the Book: Indeed, the foundation laid by the ancient Romans was so ingenious that most of that original and very logical infrastructure remains in use today, the old roads simply repaved and modernized. Rome functions amazingly well as a city and its center is quite safe, (although one always needs to take the necessary precautions of avoiding pickpockets and shady areas as one would in any city). 

Rome is convenient, with excellent transportation (don't be afraid to take the Metro!). And if you find on your visit you need a direction do not hesitate to ask for assistance. Warm, charming, ever helpful Romans will be quick to lend you a hand and a smile. And if you don't speak Italian don't fret – Italians are master communicators.

A city fill of life, exceptional beauty, exciting energy and internal and external sunshine, Rome is one of the best places I have lived. I always miss it. You will love it.

Kate Benzin
  
Amazon best-selling author Kate Benzin is originally from Chicago, but started moving around immediately after college. She is a seasoned traveler who has lived in Indonesia since 1982 because she found that Indonesia gave her the kind of adventurous life that she had been seeking. So she stayed and taught English for 14 years.

When Kate needed a new direction in her working life, she became a tour director, a job which fed her love of travel and allowed her to continue living in Indonesia while working all over the world - Russia, Spain, China, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia, Finland, France and more.

Kate now spends most of her time writing in her home/office just north of Yogyakarta in Central Java which she shares with her three Dalmatians. In her first book How To Find The Heart Of Bali, she shares insights that she gained during her many visits to Bali. In her second book Transformative Travel in Nepal: Fulfilling a Dream in the Himalayas, she describes the challenges she faced in fulfilling her lifelong dream of trekking in the Himalayan Mountains.

Kate is currently working on her next books: Modern Nomad for people who would like to travel long-term and The Trans-Siberia Express Train: Moscow to Mongolia in which she shares her experiences on this iconic train journey as well as what she learned along the way.

In the summer he turned 40, Peter Moore bought a Vespa as old as he was and rode it from Milan to Rome. It was a trip that took him through medieval stone towns, patchworked fields and into the hearts of all the Italians he met. This is an abridged version of Peter's book about the trip, Vroom with a View, published by Random House. It first appeared in the Lonely Planet anthology, Flightless.

Peter Moore
  

My name is Peter Moore and I'm an Australian travel author.

Basically, my job is to go on grand journeys and write about them. I've travelled overland from London to Sydney (The Wrong Way Home), from Cape Town to Cairo (Swahili for the Broken-Hearted) and around Italy on a forty-year-old Vespa (Vroom with a View). I also travelled around Central America with a girl I'd only just met (The Full Montezuma). I'm just finishing a book about driving around Australia in an old car with a new wife (Crikey!).

I'd like to think that my books convey the stuff that I love about travelling - the people you meet and the crazy situations you find yourself in. I constantly find myself in situations that you couldn't make up. Like sheltering in a coffin shop during a riot in Addis Ababa. Or being assured by an Iranian nuclear physicist that my country would be safe in the event of a nuclear war. And I'm constantly overwhelmed by the hospitality of people in even the poorest countries

If I had to describe my books I'd say they were kind of like a cross between Bill Bryson and Paul Theroux. But whereas Bill and Paul can flash their platinum Amexes, I have to be a bit more careful with my pennies. But to be honest I've found that's the best way to meet the locals.

Memoirs Of A Gas Station : A Delightfully Awkward Journey Across the Alaskan Tundra - Free Kindle eBook

An amazing, and hilarious, Alaskan adventure!

Early one May, Sam Neumann arrived in the breathtaking wilderness of Denali, Alaska with a smile on his face and adventure in his heart. But less than 24 hours later, both had evaporated as he stood behind the counter of a filthy gas station—his new place of employment—and tried to piece together what exactly had gone wrong.

MEMOIRS OF A GAS STATION is a quirky personal account of a summer trapped in a convenience store on the edge of Denali National Park. It is a journey across the Alaskan tundra and headlong into the ridiculous world of seasonal employment. The summer began with shock, horror, and denim shirts as Sam struggled to accept his new role as a gas station employee. To escape it, he took to the forests of Denali at every free moment, soon finding himself face-to-face with an angry adult moose, shivering numb trying to last the night on a frigid mountainside, and being seduced by a Mormon divorcee.

This book is free 10/1 - 10/2.

It’s a quirky account of seasonal work in central Alaska, and is filled with tales of love, loss, music, booze, hitchhiking, foreigners, large animal encounters, old people, and other general hijinks.

I am originally from Chicago, but started moving around immediately after college. I now consider myself a seasoned traveler who has lived in Indonesia for most of the past 30 years since 1982 when I arrived for a 3-month contract to train people as word processors - and I'm still living in Indonesia because I found that living in Indonesia gave me the kind of adventurous life that I had been seeking. So I stayed and taught English for 14 years. Now I spend most of my time writing in my home/office just north of Yogyakarta in Central Java which I share with my three dogs.
