Yes . She reminds me of Strega-Nona from Tommie DePaola's children's book .

[@cristabirney8080]

Rome is my favorite place ever! The people were SO nice, so inviting, and so fun! I wish I could go back. I'm so happy to see this vlog, as it brought back a lot of good memories when I was in Europe! I got to live in Portugal for 2 years and visit Spain, Italy and France while I was over there.

[@fallgerl]

Just wanted to let you know that I love watching your vlogs! Such a warm, lovable family and I feel like I'm part of it. Thanks for bringing us along to your trips. Hunter is very lucky to have parents like both of you. I hope I can bring such experiences to my child when I have them one day. Love from Singapore ❤️

[@flyingthenest]

You guys help get me through some of the toughest parts of my life. Seriously, I just want to thank you for sharing the contagious joy you guys emanate and the happiness it brings to my day.

I can still remember watching your videos where Jess took a pregnancy test, then the gender reveal, then giving, birth..... now she’s two??? Time flies so fast! Happiest birthday, Hunter! I'm wondering if Hunter will have a Christmas in the north pole this year, my gosh!! Hahaha (I'm way too excited it's just a few days to July 🤣)

I'm from Italy (Florence), I'm so happy that you're here! Hope you'll have an amazing trip in this country. You absolutely need to visit Florence, Bologna and Naples, and you need to eat as many pasta and pizza as you can! Enjoy!

ohhh we LOVE Florence - what an amazing city to live in!!

[@chrystalfreitas1603]

[@MsLiz2208]

I‘ve watched the video twice now - usaually I watch alone but this time i had to show it to my husband to remember our time in Rome. We loved this city so much and it was so great to see it again through your eyes. When we went it was just the two of us and today we have a five year old daughter so there is also a special joy in seeing you do this with Hunter. Also when we were in Apulia we did a cooking experience with a local nonna and it was one of the best travel experiences we ever had. Now traveling with a little child I would have never thought to do a cooking class with her but now I feel so encouraged to just try it. I mean especially in Italy where children are so welcomed, why not give it a try. I’m so excited for all your other videos that are about to come ❤️ happy birthday to little Hunter

[@JamesonThomas24]

I loved when you were introducing the croissant , and Hunter was low key in distress like, MOMMY! CHOCOLATE

Never would I have thought I would be where your little family is, at the time you are here-but, I am here in Rome until tomorrow! Then, I am on to Milan for the next leg of my journey. Your vlogs have been so entertaining! Many happy returns of the days to the three of you!

[@angelapietras1235]

Just love Hunter she eats everything and looks like she really enjoys it,a thing you don’t often see these days.

[@mellicans95]

The cooking class with nonna made me emotional. The way nonna spoke to hunter reminded me of my nonna and my childhood and it brought back great memories. Also loved watching you visit all the landmarks ❤️ it's been a long time since I have been. Cannot wait to return one day! 😍 Little Hunter is so precious and so lucky!

Hunter is so amazing and so cultured! Slurping the pasta was absolutely adorable but tackling the Spanish Steps as a two year old Wow!

[@explorewithcasey]

I thinks its fantastic that you can take your daughter to amazing places like Rome and give her that experience and memories for her to keep forever, its beautiful, an amazing gift to give to her to travel and explore the world when she is older AND you make it look so easy and fun, if I were to take my nephew travelling at the age of 5 i can promise you I'd be stressed!!!!

First of all Happy Birthday Hunter! I can’t believe she’s 2 already. Looks like you guys really took advantage of the time you had in Rome. Hunter seemed to love it. Especially the cooking class with Nonna. She reminds me of both my Italian grandmothers. Great adventure as always 🇮🇹 Can’t wait for the next one!

[@travelertrome8449]

As a world travel lover and parent of a 5 year old, having Hunter in your vlogs has added a wonderful new dimension! I loved your tour of Rome! You hit all the spots except the Vatican (which I guess is coming). Hunter grooving her shoulders before eating the pizza sandwich was so adorable! ♥️

[@flyingthenest]

Ah thank you! We actually did the Vatican last time we were in Rome so didn’t head there this time round 💛

[@donnaplumridge9769]

Happy Birthday, Hunter! What a magical place to spend your birthday, especially with all different gelato flavours! Lol! I stayed up the street from the coin fountain at a hotel called” Harry’s Bar.” There was an amazing gelato place around the corner from there as well! The pasta looked so good! So envious as well with the iced coffee. We had our 20th anniversary there. Unfortunately, didn’t get to see it all, since we only spent a weekend there. I’m addicted to the rice balls, have made them a few times, don’t last long in my house! Lol! I wish I remembered where I bought the melon flavoured limoncello! I definitely have to buy me some more of that!! Lol! I loved Hunter rolling out pasta, reminded me of my two children! Glad you enjoyed your stay inRome, looking forward to more European adventures!

[@inlanawetrust]

I BEG OF YOU GO TO VISBY, SWEDEN! it is a little town on the island of Gotland, a short plane flight from Stockholm. It is absolutely STUNNING! If you go, I recommend 2-3 days if you want to lightly explore the town and 1-2 weeks if you want to really go everywhere and maybe explore some of the island! You could also spend some time in Stockholm! Last time you went to Stockholm, it was short lived and you really could of gotten into it more! Hunter would love it as well! There is a Swedish outdoor museum called Skansen where you can learn some history while having lots of fun and seeing animals! This was a great video to watch! thank you, your work and lifestyle is amazing! Lots of love from Sweden♥️! (Idk why but me and my dad still share an account lol don’t mind the name)

Since there weren't many tourist yet in November, in two of the experiences we were the only people. We have taught some of our friends how to make homemade pasta based upon our class. Like you, I''m looking for authentic experiences not commercialized.
