Instead of having the same breakfast over and over again, why don’t you try a new and cool way to have it?
I am talking about enjoy your cappuccino and croissant while reading a book, sitted in a nice but tiny bar in Turin.
Located 5 minutes from Piazza Statuto, one of the main squares in the center of the city, the bar offers a brilliant alternative to the ordinary breakfast, giving the chance to have a personal library, where clients can easily take one book by leaving one.
Once you are in Florence, there is no excuse for you if you don’t want to try the famous “bistecca alla fiorentina”.
Tuscan food, in fact, is one of the best in the country, and you can’t skip any of the specialties this place can offer you. It’s like going to Florence and not to visit the Uffizi Museum or the Dome. It’s crazy, isn’t it?
Talking about the “bistecca alla fiorentina”, it is a T-bone steak knows as that name, and it is very succulent. It is a must for lovers of Italian food, and ordering it has to appear on “things-to-do-list” while you are in the city.
Since Saint Valentine’s Day is only celebrated by happy couple who are in love, such as boyfriend and girlfriend, husband and wife, etc. it’s such a depressing day for all the people who are still single and don’t have their Valentine.
So, instead of locking themselves in the house, crying and eating popcorn while watching some chick flick movies such as “Bridget Jones’s Diary”, Italians found a better solution as protest for a day in which chocolates, heart and roses are the only things you can see around.
The solution is organizing another festivity, which is called Singles’ Day. I swear I am not kidding, believe me and learn more about this holiday.
If you are wondering how Italians spent their St. Valentine’s Day, this post can satisfy your curiosity. Don’t envy them, by the way!
First of all, I really think it is just an excuse for restaurants to raise up prices, trying to get them higher just because it’s the lovers day. Come on, that’s not right: I mean, it’s ok to celebrate and have dinner out, but at the same price as always.
It looks like people who are in love don’t care, they just want to impress their lover and don’t care about the wallet.
As in the rest of the country, Turin is a city where people get robbed easily, in several different places. This article wants to be a small practical guide to tourists who do not want to spend their time in the police station but to enjoy their trip or vacation.
First of all, always keep an eye on your bag or purse: robbers can be so great not to let you figure out they are stealing something. In particular, whenever you walk into a very crowded street or you catch a tram or bus where there are so many people, never take your eyes off your bag.
It is very well known tram number 4 is the worst one, since immigrants and not EU citizens are so good in opening bags and taking wallets and or cell phones.
