In an extraordinary display of culinary devotion, two friends from the UK embarked on a whirlwind journey to Italy solely for a slice of authentic pizza, before promptly returning to work the following day.
Morgan Bold, 27, and her companion Jess Wooder, 26, orchestrated what can only be described as an “extreme day trip” from Liverpool to Pisa, Italy, with the sole intention of indulging in their love for pizza. Departing at the crack of dawn on April 24, the duo seized the opportunity to explore a foreign land while minimizing their time away from work.
Their meticulously planned excursion encompassed day-return flights, airport parking, sumptuous meals, and a day brimming with activities, all wrapped up within a modest budget of 170 pounds (approximately Rs 17,715).
In an interview with Manchester Evening News, Morgan Bold emphasized the cost-effectiveness of their Italian escapade compared to a typical journey to London. She noted that the entire venture, including flights and expenses, came in at a lower price point than a round trip to the capital city.
The logistical ease of their adventure was equally striking, as Bold underscored the simplicity of navigating airport procedures and the seamless transition from work to travel and back again. With only a single day of leave taken, both friends were back in the office bright and early the next day, despite having jetted off to another country just hours before.
Utilizing Manchester airport as their departure point, the pair embarked on their gastronomic odyssey, punctuated by iconic landmarks and delectable Italian cuisine. From snapshots in front of the Leaning Tower of Pisa to savoring slices of pizza amidst picturesque surroundings, the experience was nothing short of surreal.
As the clock struck 6 p.m., Bold and Wooder bid farewell to Italy and boarded their return flight, seamlessly transitioning from the allure of foreign shores to the comfort of their own beds by 11 p.m.
Their journey serves as a testament to the power of friendship, the allure of culinary exploration, and the boundless possibilities that await those willing to embark on spontaneous adventures in pursuit of their passions.
