Yup - Italy was all about eating and I took plenty of advantage. We had falafels - Jen almost fought the Kebap guy over the night when he didn’t have the falafels - we had pizza, we had pasta, we had bruschetta, there was great wine, singing (ok, so it wasn’t in tune or on beat, but it was still great), and sleep!
We went shopping and I got a great purse for cheaper than I’d seen it at home or in London. The guy at the shop actually let me talk him down from €75 to €60! I was so impressed with myself.
It has been years since I’ve been as cold as I was in Torino. I certainly didn’t pack appropriately for the trip and paid dearly. I bought a cute scarf and mittens from H&M though, so I guess that it all works out.
The first night we were there, Jen took us to a local bar that she used to frequent when she studied in Torino last year. We had a great time. We’ve been living in a world where every alcoholic drink is precisely measured... because, what would happen if you got an extra ounce of liquor and didn’t pay for it (insert gasp). Well, Italy is NOTHING like that. We had food that I’m sure we never paid for and the proper liquor to mixer percentage is 2 to 1. Needless to say it only took one!
