    1. Wow, wow, wow! Guys this is the best video ever, you deserve some award if there would be a competition 🥰🙏🏻💖🇮🇹 you just make us dream to be in those beautiful places.💖💗
      Thank you for dedicating time and energy to share this.😍

    2. Sicily seems like a beautiful island to me. Thanks for the beautiful videos about this island. If I go to Italy, I always stay in the North of Italy, but maybe I will go to the South of Italy sometime as well.

      Have you ever been to Dolceacqua (Liguria)? That is located near Menton (France). This little town is really worth a visit, just like Sanremo.

      If you ever go to (lake) Como (Italy), don’t forget to visit Hotel Villa Lario (Via Matteotti 27, 22020 Pognana Lario. even if you don't want to stay overnight there, it is certainly worth considering taking a look at the beautiful garden to have something to eat. This hotel is located near the beautiful waterfalls of the town of Nesso. see also the romantic bridge by Nesso (Lake Como).
