The first part of a trip to Castel Gandolfo, the Roman city famous for having been the traditional summer residence for generations of popes, but also for its beautiful lake.

Ilaria is from Lido di Venezia, a small island near Venice. She tells us about the specialties they offer at the bar where she works, a bar that makes its own desserts. How about having a "Spritz" at the bar?

Francesca and her new friend are now in the bar. Let's go and see what's on the menu!

Francesca is in Rome and she looking for a way of getting to the Janiculum. She asks a guy, who gives her directions and tells her of some ways she could get there. At the end, they decide to get a coffee together.

A yoga class to follow from the comfort of home. Yoga relaxes the body, provides a good stretch to the spinal vertebrae, and tones the muscles. Video kindly provided by QNM.

Milena is at the port of Maratea and she tells us about the beauty of that evocative place. The people of Maratea happily come here, even to just have a walk in the winter.

In this video we get a peek at the streets of Rome, accompanied by the nostalgic melody of "Romagna mia" (a song dedicated to the Region of Emilia Romagna, played here by a street musician in Rome). Come and discover the eternal city!

While Milena and Mattia are waiting to order, they talk about what they'll do that evening. Milena is going to go for a walk and Mattia would like to go with her. They agree to meet later, and set a time.

Milena and Mattia meet at a restaurant and order grilled sandwiches and beer. They tell each other what they've been up to in the last few days. Milena spent a lot of time at home studying, while Mattia was busy practicing for a concert.

Marika gives us a tour of her living room, where the family is entertained, and where she has lunch and dinner parties for guests.

Marika shows us her apartment's master bedroom.

It's time for the grand tour of a very important room in Marika's apartment, the bathroom! You'll notice she gets a little mixed up between hot and cold water faucets! Don't worry--the position is the same in Italy as in other countries!

Marika shows us around her kitchen, the heart of the household. We can bet it's her favorite room of all!

"Stella Stellina" [Star, little star) is a lullaby which repeats the names of farm animals and lulls children to sleep.

At last, we arrive at the lake. We ask to rent a sunbed in order to relax and we lie in the sun to rest, but only after having put on some suntan lotion.
