00:00Living in Rome in this moment, in this time, means enjoying the wonder of this city at a party,
00:06the lights, the alleys, the alleys where I love to get lost.
00:10So maybe going to look for Christmas gifts inside the boutiques, the shops, the little shops,
00:17where, I don't know, my feeling is that time flows a little differently.
00:20You can afford the luxury of a chat, of the story, maybe of the story of the object you are buying and giving away.
00:26It's a bit of a gift that I also give to myself.
00:28I just found out that this way of meeting, of asking for advice, of having suggestions,
00:34from the very small but super-supplied bookstore with which I compare myself,
00:39to the shop that I love, where I always find the welcoming smile,
00:44and then there's always that particular exclusive thing that I don't find.
00:48And when, after I've given it away, I go back home to the person who donated it,
00:52to find it there at any time of the year, I have to say that it always has a beautiful effect on me.
00:57So let's not lose this immense, splendid opportunity that Rome gives us,
01:02with its shops, its little shops, its boutiques.
01:05And so, Regalati Roma!
