Piedmont • Italy
“Don’t go to Tuscany. Go to Piedmont!”
Yes.
A friend said this to me several years ago and I still went to Tuscany — again.
But then I finally listened and traveled to the Piedmont region of northern Italy.
And kicked myself for not going sooner.
Piedmont, Italy has everything that Tuscany has — but more.
Charming hill towns. Check.
Rolling hills dotted with grapevines. Check.
Delicious food. Check.
Tasty wine. Check.
Intriguing history. Check.
And big, snow-capped mountains. Check!
That’s something Tuscany doesn’t have.
Give this episode a listen to learn about the incredible region of Piedmont, Italy.
I’m betting you’ll be ready to pack your bags when you’re finished.
