About this listen

Tiffany finally made it to Rome's epic 2025 Caravaggio exhibit and it was well worth the wait! (The tickets were also nearly as hard to come by as seats at Taylor Swift concert!) Tiffany and Katy talk about the thoughts that came up during the exhibit, incluing possibly misplaced tears, an astonishing encounter with true Caravaggio expert, and what makes an exhibit a great one—beyond just the works of art on display. Tiffany also remarks on what it is that makes Caravaggio such a universally intriguing and adored artist, as well as what it's like to be getting closer to the completion on her life-long quest of seeing every Caravaggio painting still in existence. ***Want to see Caravaggio paintings with us and learn more about this incredible artist? Come to Rome with us in October 2025! For the third year in a row, we are hosting an intimate group of listeners for a magical and unforgettable week in Rome, to explore and discover the wonders of this city with us as your guides, seeing a side to Rome tourists almost never see (including one morning dedicated entirely to Caravaggio!). Find out more here.*** ***Katy's sister Dana has recently been diagnosed with stage 4 agressive brain cancer. To help with the staggering medical costs—her specialist is outside her insurance network—as well of the costs of temporarily relocating to San Francsico for her treatments, please consider donating to her GoFundMe. Anything you can contribute will be extremely helpful. Thank you.*** ------------------------------------- ADVERTISE WITH US: Reach expats, future expats, and travelers all over the world.
