Feeling hungry now 😂
Pizza looks so different
Bergamo , the venetian fortified city …so wow….you covered it very well……for me , used to hear a lot about FC Atalanta the Bergamo football club playing in the those days rich Serie A !!!
Great views from the Venetian walls. Always a fan of panoramic views.
That pizza looks absolutely delicious. Especially the way mozzarella looked on it. Also the polenta looked mouth watering.

Very good video..watched, liked and subscribed❤
how many hours would it take to do the day trip from Milan?
Do they still make sails?
In Sakespear's Taming of the Shrew, an exasperated father exclaims about i think it was an impostor for Luchentio, " his father is a sail maker in Bergamot which is/was historically correct because it wss a centre for growing flax and therefor making canvas snd sewing sail.
FINALLY! Someone who isn't chasing the YouTube algorithm.
Your courage to truely immerse yourself is refreshing.
At least you can say that you did it your way, and not just following others.
WELL DONE.
Hi,I'm going to visit Bergamo in 2 months and I saw in the video that from Milan to Bergamo it's 6 euros, but when I looked for tickets online, it came out to be 27 euros. I would like you to tell me if it's okay to pick them up at the train station on the day I'm going to Milan to Bergamo. Thank you.
Very high-quality video – good level of detail without being overly long, well scripted and filmed with lots of gorgeous camera angles. It's an ideal video for day trippers with a bit of everything – main sights, practical info, bit of history, bit of food. Many thanks!
The snow marking the spot to build the Basilica is for the Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome.
