Tasteful Torino

Bicerin_and_hot_choc.jpg

A city that is part of my heritage (where my Nonno was born) and where chocolate is a specialty - two very good reasons to visit Torino!

Torino was much bigger than expected, with a lot of nice buildings and wide streets. And no crazy drivers (suspicious as to whether this is really part of Italy). And once we ventured away from the quiet neighbourhood of our hotel we found it much more lively with a nice atmosphere. And delectable pastry/chocolate/coffee shops!


Here are some photos taken on a day spent wandering the city:
