IT News Desk / Updated on May 17, 2024, 17:58 IST

Viral Video: Imagine traveling nearly 2,000 kilometers just for a slice of pizza. That’s exactly what two friends from Liverpool, UK, did. Morgan Bold and Jess Wooder embarked on an adventurous one-day trip, covering approximately 1,161 miles (about 1,868.4 kilometers), to savor an authentic Italian pizza in Pisa. Their journey, driven by a passion for food and a sense of fun, has captured the attention of the internet.

Morgan and Jess took a flight to Pisa, a city renowned for its iconic Leaning Tower, and recorded their entire foodie adventure. The video, shared on social media, highlights their journey through local streets, a bit of shopping where they tried on Mona Lisa t-shirts, visits to temples, and, of course, the much-anticipated moment of enjoying their pizza.

UK duo had 'pizza while looking at the Leaning Tower of Pisa'

"The food was the best bit, being able to have a pizza while looking at the Leaning Tower of Pisa," Morgan told news outlets. "It was a surreal experience knowing you were going back the same night," she added.

The trip wasn’t just about the pizza; it was an immersive experience into the local culture and sights of Pisa. The duo's adventure included more than just a meal; they took in the historical and cultural essence of the city, making the trip a memorable escapade.

Pizza trip came with a hefty price tag

Surprisingly, the entire day’s adventure, including flight tickets, activities, and food, cost them 170 euros (approximately Rs 15,400). For many, this might seem like a hefty price for a pizza, but for Morgan and Jess, it was about the experience and the story they would have to tell.

Their escapade stands in stark contrast to the more common behavior of satisfying food cravings at nearby restaurants. Most people would likely prefer a quick drive or a short walk to their local eatery rather than an extensive journey. However, Morgan and Jess's unique approach to a simple craving underscores a love for travel and new experiences, turning a mundane meal into an extraordinary adventure.
