Katie Parla In this photo, I was…Sitting in the retired corrals from the old slaughterhouse in Rome's Testaccio district, famous for its offal and my favorite neighborhood for food.

My best road trip…A month-long solo road trip from Gaziantep in southeastern Turkey, through Syria, Jordan and Israel
My favorite cup of coffee is…La Caffettiera, a little slice of Naples in Rome's Piazza di Pietra
My favorite travel-inspiring book…Paul Theroux's Dark Star Safari
