eating in Rome as a college student!

One of my fav parts of studying abroad is the opportunity to visit my friends in other countries! This week I was in Rome with one of my best friends and I had a blast! Here’s some of the places we ate that were budget friendly for some authentic Italian food!

... Read moreStudying abroad in Rome offers an amazing opportunity to explore the culinary delights of the city without overspending. College students often seek economical yet authentic dining options, and Rome is filled with hidden gems. Popular eateries like Astoria Dal Enzo and Da Osteria Fortunata are known for their delicious yet affordable dishes. These venues emphasize local ingredients and traditional recipes, providing a genuine taste of Italy. Don't miss La Romana for some of their outstanding gelato, or Vineria DPKO for a quick grab of their famous Trapizzino, an innovative Italian street food. Additionally, cafe spots like Tazza d'Oro are perfect for students looking for a good coffee to fuel their studies or relax after a long day of classes. With so many choices, dining during your college journey in Rome can be rich in flavor and friendly to your wallet, allowing you to savor every moment of your adventure in this historic city. Remember to indulge in some traditional tiramisu while exploring, as it's a must-have dessert that hails from this very region. Whether it's a local café or a bustling piazza, each meal presents a chance to connect with the culture and fellow travelers, making your study abroad experience unforgettable.
