Finally, the sun came out in Rome, and it’s the perfect time to start meeting the characters of the city again.

I had the pleasure of encountering my guest, Djarah Kan, at the New Year Forum at Palazzo Farnese, where she was invited to talk about the future. Her peaceful and genuine energy left a mark on me, so I decided to invite her on the podcast.

Originally from Castel Volturno, a small town near Naples, she moved here four years ago seeking to experience invisibility in the capital—a fair place to start. Rome is so huge, with so many neighborhoods that seem like dozens of different cities.

In this episode, we go back to her first memories of visiting with her school and seeing the Colosseum and that blue sky. As she explains, it's a profound feeling of wonder when you come from a different place where you don’t have this kind of access to beauty.

We also talked about coming to a new city, making friends, and redefine what it means to belong, while also sharing the places she holds closest to her heart.

You’ll hear us dive deep into her work as an author—questioning fake realities, stepping out of imposed narratives, and the complex art of rebuilding your own identity.

Not surprisingly, after this intimate dialogue, it’s with love that we closed the chapter for today. Sharing, caring, and feeling at home.
