Awesome

[@alexandery8508]

Hi It's interesting you speaked about eastern coast that siracuda is a must visit. But what are your top 3 ancient or just historical sites in the southwest? Before I went here I heard a lot mentioning of Agrigento etc.

[@alexandery8508]

Also is it easy to go from example Taormina to southwest coast. Also is this trip considering hours traveling worth it?

[@alexandery8508]

Your opnione would be interesting to hear!

[@YouMeandSicily]

Agrigento for sure . We have several videos from there.

[@joycemajor2555]

You’ve shown me my Paternal and Maternal grandparents towns, I keep watching and I am understanding so much about why I am the way I am, it’s inherent, in my blood. I’m 2nd gen American, my DNA is 90% Sicilian but all the other small percents we can’t explain like Arab, Norway etc, your videos nailed it. Thank you!

[@princesscc8600]

Where did you learn Italian ?

[@YouMeandSicily]
