Great news! The new podcast by Visit Italy is a local, informal, entertaining journey through Italians' Italy. We start with a trip to the Rome loved by the Romans. We have been doing so for a few months, and you have shown us your appreciation. Week after week, we are telling you about Italy according to Italians in our Like a local column. With all the colours, often discordant, that paint Il Bel Paese.

From north to south, we track down the events, flavours and activities locals are most passionate about—all to give you a faithful cross-section of Italian daily life. Where do the Romans go shopping? And what about the place for the Neapolitan perfect aperitivo? How do Ligurians experience the super touristy Cinque Terre? And where do you go if you want to wander around Palermo markets like a true Palermitano?
