A lecture by Mary Beard, Professor of Classics, at Cambridge University. I’m adding this because we talk about both Julius Caesar and Augustus quite a bit on our walks.

Expats living in Rome – UPCOMING EVENTS
Expats living in ROME is an international social network run by expatriates living and working in Rome.
We are generally age 25 or over, and meet regularly for; happy hour, language exchange, and day trips. We welcome newcomers to join.
Coming alone for the first time? Don’t worry. The regulars in the group and evening hosts will welcome you and introduce you to others. Please let us know how we can best help you in the areas of networking, making friends, language exchange, and finding housing, or looking for work.
We usually speak in English while socializing, though we are not obligated to speak in any one language. Many people are there exchanging languages already, while making new friends, and discovering common interest. Come join us!!
This group is for people that are looking to meet others that live & work in ROME.
A place to help one another overcome obstacles, and share ideas.
Moving to another country and making friends is not easy I created “Expats living in Rome” for this reason. When I first arrived in 2000 I found myself constantly making friends that were leaving after a few months which later became depressing, and a cycle. Now
