📋 Summary

An Unforgettable Roman Premiere

The journey begins in Rome, where the creator attends the international movie premiere of Love Me, Love Me, a film adaptation of Stefania’s book, hosted by Amazon Prime. The experience marks a significant milestone for the creator, noting that this is one of the first times she has traveled to an international event independently, without a "plus one" family member. The "welcome party" serves as a vibrant networking hub, bringing together creators from Spain, Italy, France, and the U.S. to mingle and celebrate the upcoming film. The creator highlights the excitement of connecting with fellow "content queens" like Alba, emphasizing the collaborative energy of capturing photos and documenting the festivities.

Exploring the Eternal City

Despite battling a nine-hour time difference and jet lag, the creator makes the most of her mornings in Rome. The itinerary includes visiting iconic landmarks like the Colosseum and engaging in classic tourist experiences, such as taking photos in a local photo booth—which initially results in "passport photos" rather than the desired aesthetic shots—and enjoying local delicacies. The creator shares her delight in simple Roman pleasures, specifically noting, "I really want to get some pizza and gelato today." Her morning walks are filled with scenic discoveries, from finding the Love Me, Love Me book in a charming local bookstore to indulging in fresh pasta and gelato, which she jokingly describes as a "successful morning of exploring."

The Premiere and Behind-the-Scenes Glamour

As the premiere approaches, the energy shifts to high-fashion and red-carpet readiness. The creator showcases her outfit—an "adorable pink dress from Princess Polly"—and expresses her gratitude for the opportunity to see the book’s vision brought to life on screen. Inside the theater, the attention to detail is evident, with personalized name tags and goody bags filled with items from NYX and Garnier. The experience is described as "glamorous and extravagant," providing a rare look at the professional side of international film promotion.

Cultural Immersion and Final Treasures

In the final days of the trip, the creator and her family navigate the challenges of moving between hotels and managing the logistics of sightseeing in Vatican City. After a spontaneous lunch and a visit to the Sistine Chapel, the family leans into the "work hard, play hard" philosophy. They take advantage of "tax-free" shopping, noting that it is "smarter to get more expensive things here" than in the U.S. The trip concludes with a "Roma haul," featuring items from Brandy Melville, customized Louis Vuitton passport holders, and Kiko Milano lip products. Reflecting on the experience, the creator celebrates the spontaneity of travel—meeting new people, eating great food, and embracing the local motto: "Go big or go Rome."
