Still good although focus has changed
this podcast started as an expat's view of life in rome (well produced by ex-npr staffer katy sewell) from the perspective of a short term expat (sewell) and long term expat (tiffany parks). great topic, interviews, etc. but once sewell moved back to seattle, the focus has gone soft and many of the shows are not even related to the expat experience. that said, i still listen as i like the two hosts (and took an awesome tour of rome with tiffany) and enjoy the times the topic refocuses on expat life. as from the beginning, this podcast really benefits from having an experienced radio producer at the helm in terms of structure and keeping the meandering to a reasonable amount (something many other podcasts are woefully missing). check it out (and if tiffany is still doing tours after the baby comes, look her up when you're next in rome...well worth the price)!Read full review »

I like the way Tiffany and Katy talk to each other as old friends, and I like the way the show explores how people change, move on, just live. Moving to Rome serves as a kind of metaphor for how to experience the world.
