First couple of days in Italy we spent in the peaceful little village of Rosingo with our cousins, Vanda and Leandro. The food was fantastic. All fresh and right from Leandro's garden. I told my grandma that when I retire someday, that I would want to live in Rosingo. Hearing the church bells every 15 minutes and all the nature of Rosingo was truly a wonderful experience. Here are a few pictures of the view from some 1oth century castles and churches we visited, but couldn't stay because they were owned by a private family.
More to come soon of Turin..
Ciao!
