#MYBOLZANO 13. July 2016

Spend the day in Bozen as a local. Chris will show you. Early in the morning he sets out on a day crammed full with life as it is lived in the South Tyrolean capital.

It’s not difficult to find out the must-sees for visitors to Bozen “FULL IMMERSION” 1 and 2! But have you ever asked yourself what a day in Bozen is like for local people? What do young people do in Bozen on a day off or at the weekend?

Strolling along the Talfer river, having breakfast ‘all’italiana’, stopping off for an espresso now and again and popping into the shops under the Lauben arcades and down the little side streets, of course! In the evening, the obligatory apéritif with friends. Spend a day in Bozen as a ‘Bolzanino’. The real Bozen. #mybolzano – Chris will take you with him!
