We’ll be traveilng “on assignment” for Budget Travel to write about our finds in Lazio, Italy. Lazio is the region that includes Rome, but most travelers aren't aware that there's lots to do and see outside of the big city. We’ll be exploring the back roads of the region, searching out interesting sights and sampling Lazio’s cuisine. Most of the places we’ll visit are within an hour or so from Rome’s airport, so it’s an convenient and reachable area for most travelers to Italy.
