Q. Tell us a bit about yourself. What is the story behind ‘inviaggiocoltubo’?
We’re an Italian travel couple. In 2013, we decided to leave Italy for a year, to travel around Australia. That trip made us realise that we wanted to make a living out of travel, so we began sharing our adventures through videos and photos. Eventually, it became our full-time job. ‘In Viaggio col Tubo’ means ‘travelling with the tube’; the tube refers to YouTube, since that is the platform we began with.
Q. What prompted you to travel to India?
It was for a job! We were very curious about India, but for one reason or another we couldn’t organise a trip. So, when this opportunity came, we were very happy. The goal was to tell the story of a trip in Delhi for Alitalia (alitalia.com), but since visiting the Taj Mahal had been on our bucket list, we dropped by Agra as well.
