Torino, Italy (incomplete)

EPIC 2008 main hall

While attending EPIC 2008 I was invited to Experientia (Torino, Italy) to collaborate on some current projects! My presentation was scheduled on the opening of the conference in the above hall – we spoke from the funny podium on the far left of the image. 

Experientia is the Orange building at the center of the collage. Clear skies permit a breathtaking view of the alps that reminds me of Mt.Hood on a clear day. Sadly, Torino experiences sunny days as often as Portland does.

Mulafanso

My favorite coffee bar.

Mulafanso’s water fountain.

I have been spoiled by Mulafanso, but I am unsure how to surrender my Dunkin Donuts  

Le Fanfaron

My favorite restaurant!

Fanfaron features homemade food that is available in limited quantities each day, and is often sold-out by 13:30 – 13:45. If you arrive early you are treated to bread right from the oven! 

Weather<br />

Grey skies with moments of light, occasional views of gorgeous mountains, laid back local population…Portland? No, Torino…or so I thought. 

Portlanders do not use umbrellas, Torino residents do.
