Karen Koren: Rome is where the heart is

I’M going to Rome next week and am very excited as it’s a first. My brother and his partner are taking our youngest brother for his 50th birthday.

We took him to Paris for his 40th and, short of my brother’s partner Irene showing off her French speaking skills and demonstrating how she knew Paris better than I, we had a great time.

I do hope that she doesn’t speak fluent Italian or have a similar knowledge of Rome. If she does there might be a severe falling out.
