The biggest problem for all tourists is to make the right choice where to go and of course when. It is not recommended to go to the mountains in the winter as it is not recommended to visit London in the fall. So you should pick the right time as well. Most of us plan their trips for the holidays, and the longest are the Christmas holidays. But it is snowing or at least raining.
If you do not have the pleasure to enjoy a long summer vacation, then as you cannot predict the weather at least choose the best place for your winter holidays. Cold is omnipresent but if you go south it is highly probable to visit a mild temperature location. Both Rome and Portugal can offer you warm weather almost all year long. The beaches are not suitable for sunbathing but why not take a long walk along the coast. you can manage to get a hotel with a perfect view like Vilamoura Hilton in Portugal or Roma Hotel Waldorf.
But a good panoramic view is not enough. You should pay all tourist sights a tribute and dedicate at least an hour to each. Seeing it all is possible but do not be in a rush, just to have a quick look and then leave. Take your time.
Portugal is a beautiful place, as much as Italy. You can witness there the multicultural influence of the old times. As Lisbon used to be the centre of sea trade, so there are many historical artefacts worth your attention.
Rome is famous worldwide. So I can only tell you what you already know. The Colosseum, Trevi Fountain, but Italy as a whole is much more interesting than this. All the Piazza-s and Pizzas, taste the original spaghetti and macaroni. Feel the Roman spirit and see all the art masterpieces scattered everywhere.
So If I was to choose only one place out of this two, I would probably wait for them moment when I would be able to visit both. What about you?
