This afternoon I’m on my way, finally, to France. Before I go though, a quick update on my last moments in Italy.
I’ve spent the last week in Turin, situated in the Piemonte region in the northwest of the country, and an interesting urban home to things like contemporary art, the bicerin (cream, espresso, chocolate), and the 2006 Winter Olympics. Aside from a day I spent in Alba (hazelnuts, Nutella, truffles), I’ve filled my time with walking, espresso, sculpture, gelato, city tram rides and, of course, people watching.
There is a lot to see here, and I only skimmed the surface. “Read the rest” to see what some of it looked like.









Hey!
Caught up on your blog, now! Your experiences show how wonderful life can be when enjoying the best that it has to offer: friends, food, and beauty – natural and man-made. I’m so happy that you have had a chance in your life to travel the world and be in touch with culture on all levels! Enjoy the new experience of France! I have a feeling that this country might be the one that was made for you!

So sweet, merci beaucoup, mama!
