La libreria del viaggiatore (The Traveler's Bookshop)
Travelling is a unique experience, a continuous discovery of places, cultures and traditions. Who is leaving is aware of this, and also knows how to be carried away by the beauty of a new city. Reading up about the arrival place, about its monuments or its points of interest, it is one of the things that each explorer have to do before embarking for a new adventure.
But reading some information online is not enough: it is necessary to know something more. In Rome (Via del Pellegrino, near Piazza Navona) there is a magical place that, like a compass, helps the journeyer to find his direction: it is called ”La Libreria del Viaggiatore”(The Traveler’s Bookshop). It has old suitcases used as exhibitors, a catalog of 10.000 titles, maps, globes and an owner, Mr. Bruno Boschin, always willing to give advice and suggestions.
Do you need information about Rome? This is the place! There are numerous city guides, and many are texts available in its original language. But there’s more: the library is a treasure containing “jewels” of high value, such as travel reports, essays, travel literature, maps and any kind of book meant to help you to delve into the joy of travelling. Entering The Traveler’s Bookshop will help you to feel less lost: either you are foreigners in Rome, or you are roman citizens departing for a distant land, here the compass needle always points to the north!
