My family is from Rome and live in the Eternal City as much as any family member that I remember and I am very proud of it. Rome is the largest open-air museum in the world, and I love sharing with local visitors who come from all over the world.

When you start your business as personal expenses? About six years ago, during one of my frequent business trips to London, I decided to maximize my time to shop to hire a personal shopper. The result was an excellent view of great value in providing help and got, because I knew that I took the service that I have to give your friends when they come to visit me in Rome. I suddenly realized that the creative work May be a great challenge for me since then, in 2003, almost nobody knew of this profession in Italy. I asked my friend about my idea of sharing my experience of hairdressing and fashion together with his passion for Rome with the guests and encourages me, “the launch itself, the friendly shopping on the Internet, and how http://www. romeshoppinguide. Com was born! Since then, word of mouth advertising is my best. I’m very happy with this decision, because it gave me the opportunity to be in contact with people from places and cultures. These interviews often turn into friendships and gives us the opportunity to exchange views on the latest fashion trends from New York to Shanghai and Mumbai and Paris, and it’s really wonderful. What are the most popular in the later rounds of your applications or types of shopping? My customers, male and female, when they come to Rome for pleasure or business, and are interested in access to the unknown, “Rome.” In fact, what I enjoy most is that they are above street level retail stores sharing “secret shopping”, guests experience the wonder of Rome in any way a tourist destination. Just to give you an example, because Italy is also famous for its skin, I asked several times by my client to take them in the shops of the skin. I often come to visit them master the skills of several of which left the center of Rome. This is my favorite and precious stones. In these shops, vice president, skin, and guests can buy in the laboratory and the distribution of luggage, bags, jackets, coats and shoes with this type of leather, and subtract color and accessories they prefer. This type of shopping trip in regard to salons, laboratories, local craftsmen are always successful experiment. Italy is actually still a country with Artisanal heritage alive, and if you want to get a piece of unique quality, this is the place to be for him! Then come back to your question, and actually the question I’ve also been asked frequently my clients, there is no popular shopping tours, but similar requests for the same clothes and shoes, of course, but for now, to allocate precious gems, for gourmet food and wine, pottery and furniture, toys, clothing, and even pens! But let me tell you, I sometimes strange requests such as one of the two ladies who asked me to be only better air quality, open-air food market in town, because they want to make a surprise dinner for their husbands! We had an amazing time together, and they are eager to learn Italian Recipes, during a tour of our food shopping and I was pleased to share the secrets of my family with them on how to cook with the freshest ingredients. A few days later, I was very happy to receive a letter of thanks from the woman. This is just one of many wonderful memories I have received. Can you give me a sample itinerary round contradictory, for example, Piazza Navona and Via Veneto? It is a pleasure and specialization of the award routes to the client and the goal of making sure that the unique and memorable for them. Navona, Via Veneto and shopping tours, as proposed in http://www. romeshoppinguide. Com on my experience and most of the guests visiting the Eternal City for the first time. However, keep in mind that these paths be broken, and revised at the end facing the bottom of the page until you reach the last second, in accordance with the requirements of guests. When I receive or purchase wine tour inquiry, 99% of e-mail, as I detailed as possible so that I can create a personal itinerary based on their specific needs and enhance your precious time and make travel fun and relaxation. Even through this questionnaire, “saying:” I plan to tour and make sure the books, if necessary, professional private tour and schedule with the “right” to stop shop. Sometimes my questions are enforced is a phone call to get more details, and even today I meet with my client / customer in the hotel, and we reaffirm their personal preferences, so that we can get the best results! Next question, I drew Navona and Via Veneto shopping tours vary from different types of stores can be found wandering feeling for you. Navona shopping through the historic area means going to antique shops, marble, glass and artisan shops, the minimum and enoteche gourmet food, breathing in the atmosphere of old in every corner of Romania. In this area for shopping is surrounded by beautiful fountains, palaces and noble and ancient monuments, and guests receive the perfect combination of shopping and sightseeing Rome since then has led them to the store, I would like to point out and explain to them the treasures around them. Via Veneto in the region, known as Dolce Vita streets, many exclusive skin, and wholesale jewelry, gloves, fashion boutiques, which usually refers to the clients sophisticated and mature. American buyers also enjoy because it is the way to the street Dolce Vita, but also appreciate the magnificent 19thcentury Palazzo Margherita beloved first Queen of Italy, Margherita di Savoia, these days, including the U.S. embassy. You must also offer flights to Tuscany and Umbria, as well as factory outlets and food / wine stores. What do you do this tour include? I like my guests to provide various opportunities for shopping and wine tours, as well as promote my allowed for travelers know that Italy is not only restricted to Rome, Venice, Florence, Capri, etc., in the Tuscan countryside by a surprisingly well known throughout the world, there is a beautiful nature of the Umbria region. Umbria region is very picturesque and a broad array of opportunities to visit ancient castles, surrounded by vineyards, which is nice to stop for a personal wine tasting, to visit the ports of cashmere, pottery (ceramics, the best Italian cashmere manufacturer and brand name comes from this region), work stoppages the Chocolate Factory (the famous kiss comes from Perugino Perugia!) to visit shops specializing in gourmet famous black truffle. I think the list of treasures to discover and do things that are endless, and it is definitely worth a visit! Factory outlet tours and tours the bargain, these days with this bad economy, finding a quality designer goods at 30% to 70% discount on the retail price is fantastic! In many cases, these tours can be combined with port wine and beautiful and taste real Italian food, go through the region. You can participate in some of the current fashion trends in Italy, from clothes to shoes to sunglasses? I gravitate to pieces, unusual, special and unique. I love clothes and accessories that the style is not associated with any particular direction. Fashion trends in my opinion for the year 2009 there will be lots for affordable high-fashion labels. Today, fashion designers should be very creative in order to obtain a competitive advantage in today’s world witnessed the fashion industry. I must say that I am saving for a nice bag that I saw recently in the past, Palazzo Pitti in Florence. I will say that this sign! After all, I am Italian and I am a victim mode by default!
