Videos can’t fully capture the adrenaline and the feelings you get watching the rodeo, surrounded by Texan families.

But now it’s time to head back to Dallas for the night.

We witness a real Texas rodeo🤠
18 sierpnia 2025, Stany Zjednoczone ⋅ 🌙 33 °C
We head north to Denton to witness a real Texas rodeo. The locals crowd onto metal bleachers surrounding the arena, where various local farms compete in different events: catching a calf, guiding cows in order from 1 to 10, taming a wild horse 🐎.

All these events showcase mastery of the skills needed in traditional farm life, without causing any harm to the animals. A truly local and authentic experience. Czytaj więcej

Being in a high-risk area, the gas station is equipped with a tornado shelter.
And if fear gets the best of you, the bathrooms are right on the opposite side!

After trying every type of fast food out there and stopping at every Buc-ee's along the way, I decide to grab a salad at Sweetgreen 🥗
Delicious, but loaded with toppings, sauces, and cheese.
Looks like I’ll have to wait until I’m back in Italy to eat something truly healthy! Czytaj więcej

Barton Springs natural swimming pool🌊
19 sierpnia 2025, Stany Zjednoczone ⋅ ⛅ 33 °C
Barton Springs is a famous natural swimming pool in Austin, fed by an underground river.
Thanks to the sweltering heat, the pool was very crowded, and we enjoyed a refreshing swim and some dives from the diving board. It was a very nice and relaxing afternoon.

Unfortunately, we had to leave early because it was closed ahead of schedule due to lightning. Czytaj więcej

Terry Black's: the best BBQ of my life!
19 sierpnia 2025, Stany Zjednoczone ⋅ ⛅ 32 °C
We stop to eat at Terry Black's Barbecue, one of the most famous and beloved spots in Austin, to try Texas BBQ 🍖🔥
Sliced and lightly smoked brisket, shank, pork ribs… everything incredibly tasty. The meat falls off the bone effortlessly.

Very expensive (over $70 per tray), but well-spent money as it was without a doubt the best BBQ of my life. Czytaj więcej

Austin is already in the future 🚀✨
19 sierpnia 2025, Stany Zjednoczone ⋅ ⛅ 29 °C
Walking around Austin, we saw many fully autonomous Uber Eats robots delivering food. It’s fascinating how they can read pedestrian traffic lights, stopping when necessary and avoiding people.

The next day, we saw the self-driving cars from Waymo, fully autonomous taxis that take people to their destinations without human intervention. We tried to book one, but we did not manage. Czytaj więcej

We wander through the streets of Austin at night, admiring beautiful luxury villas with decorated facades and huge murals.

In a bar, we find the city's informal motto: "Keep Austin Weird".
This motto was created in the ’90s, when Austin was the hub of creativity and small businesses. Czytaj więcej

After encountering them on the Balkan and Central Asia trips, the 7Days croissants can’t be missing on the American road trip either, now with new flavors never seen before.

I was ready to buy them, as tradition dictates, but then I saw the Panquesitos, my childhood snack in Venezuela. So, of course, I went for those instead. Czytaj więcej

"Remember the Alamo"
20 sierpnia 2025, Stany Zjednoczone ⋅ ☀️ 33 °C
The Mexicans besieged the Alamo for 13 days as part of the Texas War of Independence from Mexico.

The few Texans resisted but were ultimately annihilated. “Remember the Alamo” became a symbol in the following days, leading to Texas gaining independence about a month later, on April 21, 1836. ⚔️🇨🇱

About 10 years later, the Republic of Texas decided to join the United States, becoming the only U.S. state that chose to join voluntarily the US, as it was neither conquered nor purchased.

In 1960, the movie "The Alamo" by John Wayne was released, earning 7 Academy Award nominations. Czytaj więcej

Chilling at a bar by the river 🍹😎
20 sierpnia 2025, Stany Zjednoczone ⋅ ☀️ 35 °C
San Antonio isn’t just about the Alamo.
It’s the second-largest city in Texas, and the areas along the San Antonio River are very nice to chill and hav a drink.

To escape the August sun and heat, we find a spot at a riverside café, where we sip Coca-Cola and eat nachos under an umbrella that shields us from the sun.

Next to us, boats full of tourists pass by on the green river. Czytaj więcej

Time to try the Mexican specialties🌯🇲🇽
20 sierpnia 2025, Stany Zjednoczone ⋅ ☀️ 36 °C
In San Antonio, we are less than three hours from the Mexico border.
People speak Spanish, the fast-food staff are ALL Latino, and supermarkets sell Coca-Cola and Mexican food.

So we decide to try Mexican cuisine, we order a mix of everything for just $18.
The waitress arrives, sets up a folding table, and places on it every type of Mexican delight: empanadas, fajitas, quesadillas… 😋

Everything is delicious, and we leave the table extremely full and satisfied. Amazing place to eat mexican food (which is different from Tex-Mex). Czytaj więcej
