Description

What’s it like to spend 24 hours at the Winter Olympics? And how’s the food? Thank you to The @Olympics and @YouTube for inviting me to the Winter Olympics - Milano Cortina 2026! I traveled to Milan, then took a 4.5 hour van ride into the beautiful mountains of Livigno in the Italian Alps for the Games. In this video I’ll show you what it’s like to spend a full day at the Winter Olympics in Livigno, starting with morning wakeup, breakfast, and a quick room tour. We also got an exclusive behind the scenes tour to the top of the big air ski jump for the view. I’ll show you all the food I ate for lunch at the Olympic Hospitality. Another highlight was getting to chat with Pat Burgener, a professional snowboarder and musician at the Olympics - and it was cool to hear his response to “what an Olympic athlete eats?” Finally, you can’t come to Italy without trying some of the local traditional Italian food, and I was excited to try Pizzoccheri, Tzigoiner, and Salmì di cervo. An amazing meal! It was an incredible day at the Winter Olympics 2026! Thank you again to The Olympics and YouTube. #MilanoCortina2026 #invitedbyyoutube

My favorite part was the snowboarder saying he sometimes needs food for his mind. That's great advice.

This is when you know you have made it big on YouTube. When the freakin Olympics Committee invites you to come to the event and have sets up your accommodations and access. They know Mark will give fantastic content. This vlog was one where I immediately stopped whatever I was doing so I could view it right away! So impressive and entertaining! Gold medal for Mark! 🏅🏅
