    Our early retirement adventures in Europe continue with a Turin Italy travel vlog, as we eat desserts all day long in the chocolate capital of Italy. It is a beautiful city and we believe Turin is one of the most underrated cities to visit in Italy and a must visit if you are in this area.
    It was clean, beautiful and had plenty of things to see and do, along with some amazing food. It is located in the Piedmont region of northern Italy, which has a Nutella factory and is the home of Nutella making, due to the best hazelnuts in the world grown in this region.
    We start our day off with some bicerin, which is a famous local drink of hot chocolate, expresso and cream. We later stuff ourselves with more gelato and chocolate as we walk our way around this beautiful Italian city.
    We hope you are enjoying our 9-month European adventure and also go back and check out our adventures in Central America and seeing all 50 states during our Airstream journey across America.
    Please join us for a 10-year journey and world travel vlog. We wanted to retire early and see the world and film our adventures. Perhaps our world travel will give some ideas on what to do after retirement and where to travel in 2022. We have no home just travel and want to show you different perspectives as we show you where to visit in 2022 and give you our experiences as we travel the world. This is our retirement and we want to share it with you.
    We hope you will subscribe, join us on our adventure, give us some likes and send us comments and suggestions. It means so much. Thank you and hope everyone has a wonderful travel 2022.

    ABOUT US:
    As the retirement travelers, we have always dreamed of traveling, but we never in a million years thought we would become travel vloggers and start a TH-cam channel. But, that is what we did! We work hard every day to become better and create something that others will enjoy. Having a community of friends, old and new, follow our journey is fun and exciting to us.
    In 2019, we achieved our goal of visiting every state in the union in our Airstream. We also visited every national park in the lower 48. We are big believers in lists, so of course we plan to see the remaining 12 parks in the next few years.
    In 2021, we made the big decision to extreme downsize to just a large and small backpack, each. We started our journey around the world beginning in Central America. We hope that over the next ten years, we will have seen many beautiful things, made many memories and new friends, and shared the experience with our children and grandchildren.
    We hope you enjoy the journey with us. Drop us a note in the comments and be sure to hit subscribe! 🗺 🎥 🌮

    I was in Turin 4 days ago and Milan before that. I couldn’t agree more, Turin is definitely underrated and I really enjoyed it more than Milan. Currently in Venice and will be headed to Greve in Chianti next, then Florence and then Rome.
    Your videos are very inspirational. I wish to travel full time starting in 6 years when I retire.

    Gianduja is helzetut chocolate and Nutella is a Ferrero brand Gianduja chocolate cream. Ferrero headquarters are in Alba, a small town south of Turin. Alba in italian means dawn but in Gaelic is Scotland. Piedmont before the exponsion of the Roman empire was inhabited by celtic tribes. Most names of towns in Piedmont have a celtic root. The Taurini were the celtic tribe settled there before the Romans invasion.
    In the piedmotese language most words end with a consonant and double consonants like in Italian don't exist, that's why we say bicerin (literally small glass, it would be "bicchierino" in italian where "ch" is always proununced like "k" in English).
    But there much more than chocolate in Turin. It is the first Italian capital. The Egyptian museum is the second in the world after the one in Cairo.
    The royal palaces are worth a visit. The royal hunting palace with its gardens in Venaria... The national cinema museum inside the Mole Antonelliana (it is said to be the tallest museum in the world). The car museum, the contemporary art museum and much more can be visited in Piedmont. La sacra di San Michele ( st. Michael abbey), the lakes Maggiore and D'Orta...
    You are right: there is much more to be visited in Turin and Piedmont than in Milan for sure! 🙂

    OK, once again we are having video overlap in the same week! My video on Tuesday was called “what I eat in a day: the England tourist diet” … we also had a splurge day full of absolute gluttony! But the overlap is that I said “I need to walk 15,000 steps today!” So I was laughing when you said the same exact thing!!! I actually showed my step count at the end of the video 🤩. Like you… we had to go back to some very healthy eating after that!! 🥦🥕🍅🥬
