It made me understand what I missed
I know Turin because my boyfriend comes from there, but I fell in love with the city quite independently. The first time I visited Turin it made me understand what I missed in the USA during the previous year. It was great to feel and breathe culture when walking on the marble streets under "portici", admiring those grand buildings, marvelous churches, Mole Antonelliana, the river Po, the Alps...and while enjoying exquisite food and drinks which Turin contributed to the world. Turin has a great history of leadership and innovation; it has style and so much more to offer than a fame of an industrial city. Although I heard numerous stories about how awful it is to live there, it could never surpass my love for Turin. I am happy that the city is in the process of reinventing itself, starting with hosting the Olympic Games.
