“It is time to say goodbye to my happy place.

️I am sad to be leaving Italy, but at the same time filled with so much positive energy, unforgettable memories, lots of pizza, wine, and gelato.

Last 6 days were incredible, and I got share them with many amazing people from all over the world! People ask me why and how did I become a Juve fan, it’s a long story and many of you know it by now. Well, I am proud to say that my crazy Juventus obsession turned into a very healthy tradition. I am able to travel to beautiful Italy, and besides doing all the typical things you do when you come here I get to connect and reunite with those who share my passion for calcio and the bianconeri. Over the years this game and this team has given me a lot of wrinkles, happy and sometimes not so happy tears, and oh so much anxiety game after game….but most importantly thanks to Juve (and social media) I have met other fans, who soon became my dearest friends! This year I was able to get on JStadium field and walk on JStadium grass right after my boys lifted their 34 scudetto (I’m even bringing some home with me eheh…) so what we didn’t make the big screen this year, some of us were lucky enough to take selfies with the champions, and we made sure to celebrate the Hi5toric year in a very proper way.

Congrats to everyone who traveled from all over the world for the first time to visit JStadium, and to celebrate our 5th consecutive Scudetto on Saturday! It was a pleasure to meet all of you and I hope we will meet again soon. Big thanks to the main man, our Juventus guru, most dedicated and passionate Juventino in the universe, or should I say Around the universe, Mr. Maurizio aka Around J! If it’s a membership question, problem getting a ticket, info about what to do and where to go in Turin… or any other related issue or request you are always on stand by, make sure to get in touch with Maurizio at Around J, he will do everything in his power to make another crazy fans dream come true. We all appreciate you and value your constant support and hard work!

Thanks to everyone on your Around J team, you guys are amazing and I was extremely happy to see you all this past weekend! Hope to see you all soon in Torino or NYC.

It’s impossible to keep all these happy thoughts and emotions in me. Once again I wish for everyone’s Juventus dream to come true soon, and remember that Around J is always there to help you get to it!

Ciao Torino, ciao Italy, Fino Alla Fine Forza Juventus!”
