Sicily in the minds of many people is something original Italian, and is associated with Italy almost more than Rome itself.

For five days from October 23 to 27, an incredible festival took place in Turin - the Salon of Taste and Terra Madre (Salone del Gusto e Terra Madre). All five days I watched with my own eyes what is happening, and now I just can’t wait to share with you even a piece of this holiday and the atmosphere. The organizers of the Salon of Taste are the association of Slow Food, the administration of the Piedmont region and the city of Turin in cooperation with the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Forestry Policy.

For organizing outdoor activities - December in Italy is considered one of the most attractive winter months. This is especially true for the northern part of the country, where the ski season is gaining momentum. Alpine skiing is one of the important, but not the only component of winter holidays in Italy. Christmas deserves no less attention - perhaps the main winter holiday not only in Italy, but also in Europe in general.
