Villa della Regina

Torino is a personal favorite. Home to Fiat and one of the world's best Egyptian Musuems. Chocolate lover's heaven, Gianduia was created here, using the local hazelnuts to stretch the chocolate. It inspired Nutella. The city has 18 km of covered walkways and wonderful shopping. The food is incredible. It was home to the King of Savoia. He lived there when Italy became united and it was the first capital of Italy. The Market of Torino is one of the largest in Europe. There is a historic building and a huge piazza filled with stands. Not just food, I also adore the flea market, Balon and the grand Balon.

Turin is so underrated. With a fairytale backdrop of the Alps, the city along the Po River feels refined but in a relaxed way. Charm and quality still feel friendly and warm.

Spend a weekend in Turin, Italy's first capital, gem of the North! After living here for a year, I've come across many good restaurants, bars, shopping, and activities. Whether you want to watch Torino FC play in The Olympic Stadium from the Olympics that were held here in 2007, or the mighty Juventus at Allianz Stadium. Or even if you want a haircut at the best place in town by my barber, Roberto. Sitting down at Pastificio Defilippis for the best pasta in town, or taking a day trip to Alba or Asti to taste some historical Piedmont Wine, Turin and the Piedmont region has it all! The view of the Italian, Swiss, and French alps is truly unbeatable and absolutely magical.
