Rome

Trevi Fountain - Piazza di Trevi, 00187

Keep your back to the fountain, your eyes well shut, and with your hand moving over your left shoulder, throw in the coin, perhaps together with a wish, and the hope of returning to Rome. Everybody knows the rite of the Fontana di Trevi, but the real secret is finding out just where the hundreds of thousands of euros that get – literally – thrown away each year in the water of one the most well-known monuments in the world.

Your good luck charm for Rome.
