Arrivederci, Torino
This little town is quite unremarkable, really; about the most exciting thing it's known for is its annual reenactment of the Battaglia della Marsaglia, which the locals carry out every September with great vigor and panache. Though goodness knows why they would choose to remember a battle which they decisively lost to the French.

Here we go again. Much like Paris in 2017, Kyoto was not where I thought my actual birthday would be.
