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.

Welcome to the Niagara Region, home to Niagara Falls, one of the world's seven natural wonders, visited by over 12 million people annually. As well as the must-see town of Niagara-on-the-Lake, with its tree-lined streets, lush gardens, and boutique shopping.
Just an hour south of Toronto, on the other side of Lake Ontario, the Niagara Region has so much more to offer than just Horseshoe Falls, with world-class stays & attractions, and natural beauty extending far into the region's wine country.
Whether you're going for a day trip or a weekend, you'll know what to expect and have plenty of recommendations for eats and drinks during your stay.
This is especially important as Niagara Falls is known for having lots of tourist traps and poor-quality establishments.

Enjoy some âtres jolieâ days walking around the Parisian streets and boost up your energy level đ with some coffee just after/before a âlittleâ shopping spree.
This list includes many of the cityâs cafes (Paris is now a specialty coffee - and pastry - capital) and all the good spots to shop something that will surely indulge all of your needs/senses (main focus on French brands).
đĄBe sure to check the vintage selling gems spreaded all over Paris!!!
đ° By the way, massive sales happen twice a year in France: in July and January. Called âles soldesâ in French, the sales normally last around four weeks and the discounts increase as the weeks pass.
Even if you donât catch the sales, designer shops give you the opportunity of buying small accesories (keychains for example), leather goods (belts, gloves, card holders, passport covers, etc) or scarves/caps/ties - even umbrellas, which make for exceptional souvenirs.
Perhaps you can even get the chance of seeing the âart of makingâ a product in the workshop/workroom of the artisans.
Plus, visiting the shopping venues could turn into an amazing experience as many of them are soooo Instagrammable!
Highlights:
đ„ Croissant - is a buttery, flaky, viennoiserie pastry inspired by the shape of the Austrian kipferl but using the French yeast-leavened laminated dough. Croissants are named for their historical crescent shape. The modern croissant seems to have been created by the French chef Sylvain Claudius Goy.
đ„ Baguette - is a long, thin type of bread of French origin that is commonly made from basic lean dough (the dough, though not the shape, is defined by French law). It is distinguishable by its length and crisp crust.
đ§ Fromage de France - there are more than 1,000 kinds of cheese in France! Being in Paris is being in the Ville des Fromages, the City of Cheese. Some of the most known: Camembert,
Brie de Meaux, Roquefort, Reblochon, Munster, Pont l'ĂvĂȘque, Ăpoisses de Bourgogne, ComtĂ©.
Tip: go for a âcheese and wineâ tasting.
đ Escargot - any of several species of edible land snails, a delicacy of French cuisine. Although the snails eaten as escargots are terrestrial, they are technically mollusks and therefore classified as seafood.
đ· French wine - France is one of the largest wine producers in the world. Red wines from grape varieties like Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Zinfandel. RosĂ© wines like the Provençal rosĂ© and the sweet White Zinfandels. White wines like a Chardonnay, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, or a Moscato. Sparkling wines from Champagne and Vouvray.

Highlights:
âïž Il Giglio - giglio bottonato, is mainly known from the crest of the city of Florence. In the Florentine fleurs-de-lis, the stamens are always posed between the petals. This is also the emblem of the city and you shall see it depicted all over.
đš Gelato âcrema fiorentinaâ - is the specific flavor of Florence, made with a simple combination of egg yolks, milk, and sugar. It is often flavored with chestnut honey, while another common addition includes crumbled amaretti cookies or almond liqueur. It is a neutral ice cream flavor with delicate pale-yellow color.
đ§ Affogato - a delightful and simple Italian dessert or beverage that combines two beloved elements: espresso and gelato or ice cream. The word "affogato" in Italian means "drowned," and that perfectly describes the preparation of this delicious treat. The basic affogato recipe involves pouring a hot, freshly brewed espresso over a scoop of cold gelato or ice cream. The hot espresso contrasts with the cold and creamy gelato, resulting in a harmonious and satisfying flavour combination.
đ„© Bistecca alla fiorentina - Italian steak made of young steer (vitellone) or heifer (scottona) that, combined with the specific preparation, makes it one of the most popular dishes of Tuscan cuisine.
đ· "Buchette del vino" - or wine windows, are a peculiar feature of Florence. They are foot-high, dome-shaped holes in the thick, stone palazzi of the Renaissance city that six centuries ago were used to sell wine in a fiasco (glass bottle) without having to open a shop and avoid paying taxes. These wine windows also posed a useful anti-contagion way to sell wine during the epidemic of 1630-1633. At that time, the bubonic plague hit Florence hard, killing 12% of the city's population.
