Most people visit Rome. John Henderson moved there.
When a sixteen-month sabbatical turned into more than a decade of life in the Eternal City, veteran journalist John Henderson discovered a Rome that tourists rarely experience.
In The Cappuccino Chronicles, Henderson takes readers beyond the famous landmarks and postcard views to explore the everyday realities of living in one of the world's most glamorous cities. From neighborhood cafés and bustling markets to cultural traditions and exasperating challenges, he reveals the Rome that guidebooks can't capture.
Written with the keen eye of a journalist and the warmth of a storyteller, this engaging memoir offers an honest, humorous, and insightful look at daily life in Italy's capital. Whether you've dreamed of moving to Rome, are planning an extended stay, or simply want to experience the city from a local's perspective, The Cappuccino Chronicles will take you beyond the tourist trail and into the heart of the Eternal City.
If you've ever wondered what it's really like to call Rome home, this book is your invitation to find out.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Have you ever wondered what it would be like to retire in Rome After a sabbatical in Rome, during which he fell in love with the city and its people, American journalist John Henderson spent eleven years trying to return. With the newspaper industry crumbling around him like an ancient ruin, he finally made it. He retired to Rome and found her just as beautiful and charming as ever. The Cappuccino Chronicles: An American Journalist's Decade in Rome, is about an American expat's life in a glamorous city few visitors ever really know. Rome is beauty, food, wine, art, afternoon break, and yes, cappuccino. But it is also sixteenth century public services and indecipherable language. With a journalist's keen eye for detail, truth, and sarcasm, John removes the veneer from Rome with wit and thoughtfulness, telling what it's really like to live in The Eternal City.
