 Hello from the Tuscany region of Italy, I am in this small town, I don't really know the name because we just stopped by to grab some food and oh my gosh the views out here are incredible and this town is really beautiful. We've been in Tuscany for a few days right now, we spent a few days in Pisa and then we took the train to make our way to Grosato, Alex and I and then from there we drove all the way to Saturnia and the reason we made our way to Saturnia is to visit the popular Cascate del Molino di Saturnia, it's one of the most popular hot springs here in Italy beautiful blue pools, geothermal pools, beautiful views, beautiful sights so we made our way there I was a little bit disappointed for a few reasons, when we got there the temperature of the water was not as hot as I'm used to when I go to hot springs usually which you guys know if you've been following me for a while you know that I'm a big fan of hot springs I think the temperature of the water was around 37 degrees Celsius at best and usually you know how you get to the top or the source of the water it gets hotter the pools can get hotter, it was not the case with this one and so it really just felt like now this is January or early January it felt like you were in a puddle of warm water but it was not really hot besides the fact that there are a lot of people which I kind of knew it is extremely busy because it's this picturex, Instagramable type of hot spring it was so packed but was it really worth it? I think making the drive from Grosetto for us to make our way up here to Saturnia it was absolutely beautiful, beautiful hills, beautiful sunsets, beautiful scenery with a lot of olive trees and vineyards so it was worth it but for today actually and the reason we are out here we are a little bit north of Saturnia about I think 1 hour 30 minutes to drive up north we are here to check a hot spring that's supposed to be better, better in a way that is going to be hotter from what I was told by the locals here so we're gonna go check it out and bring you guys with and I hope that you guys enjoy this video today alright so we just arrived to the hot spring, there are a bunch of cars parked here there are some ruins from some old walls and there's actually a vehicle right there selling some goodies so we're gonna go check them out and then we're gonna head to the hot spring, this hot spring is free but right next to it there's actually a thermal spa that you can probably see out there so if you want a fancier experience you can check that out but for us we love free stuff so we're gonna make our way to the free pool we've got oranges, nuts, honey is there anyone there? Ciao! the hot spring is right on the side of the road there aren't really any changing rooms there are a couple of picnic tables you know just like hidden spots right here where you can get changed which we just did and we cannot wait to soak in let's go we just wrapped up our adventure at the hot spring and it was incredible two thumbs up this was absolutely worth it the water was really hot I think that's what you call a hot spring not the hot springs in Saturnia a lot of good like sediment and stuff in the water too from time to time it makes you feel like it's natural not just some re-heated water and it's really good for your skin there's even a lot of mud that you can you know apply on your face and your skin if you love to was it worth the drive? absolutely is it better than Saturnia? absolutely is Saturnia even worth it? I think if it's on your bucket list and it's a place that you absolutely want to go to sure I think it's a good place to visit still maybe the actual paid for spa in Saturnia is okay? yes we can't speak about that one though so both hot springs actually Saturnia has a thermal spa right next to it and then this one also has a thermal spa next to it so if you are looking for a more sophisticated experience you can choose that option curated natural that being said you may have to wait for the right spot from time to time to get into a little pool the water was a little shallow here but good fun alright so that wraps us our adventure out here at the hot spring we'll get back to our Airbnb for tonight and we'll see you on a new adventure bye ciao
