Official visit to the Vatican

A short two-day visit to the Vatican and Rome. I have always loved Italy, and Rome in particular — this trip was no exception.

The program was, as usual, intense. One of the key moments, the meeting with the Pope, was not accessible to photographers outside the official Vatican pool, and the images were provided directly by their side. It’s part of the protocol — something to accept and move on.

For me, the trip felt unexpectedly refreshing. With a clear focus on the rest of the program, I found myself enjoying both the work and the city even more.
