Another Beauty from Sicily

[@ak_fha_t]

Its so beautiful. I had no idea Italian Catholics worship so many idols/saints. The quick to-go worship chamber was awesome just like a drive through fast food restaurant. Its like walking into thousands of years ago.

I didn’t know the IT infrastructure was so solid in Sicilia. This is good to know. Here in South Central, LA we are STILL having to fight for equal access to IT infrastructure.

[@madeinsouthla]

This is so cool! ❤

[@jodidelucca4190]

Thank you Professor for sharing your time and knowledge!

[@DAVENT16]

I loved your video! it's nice to see how my hometown is appreciated by "foreign" eyes. People from there often dont realize how lucky they are to be surrounded by such beauty. I left Ragusa as a 20 y.o. in 2011. No day pass by without me missing it. Would love to discuss some opportunities with you.

[@YouMeandSicily]

Thank you ! Please email us!

Eszter, il suo rossetto e maglietta sono di un colore bellissimo. Grazie per questo video sulla città di Ragusa.

[@YouMeandSicily]

Grazie mille!

[@Ilostmyfob]

When I saw the antipasto, I had to run to the kitchen to get some cheese. It wasn't as good as the cheese and all of those yummy treats.. this is cool. We had those puppets!! Beautiful imagery... and you both look great. Bless you

[@YouMeandSicily]

Good morning you guys! We are young retirees from Holland, looking for a forever home in Italy and we just found your channel. After traveling trough France and Spain for 2 years we decided we needed a base from which we can operate because living out of a suitcase is overrated! We decided to turn to our first love, Italy, where we spend many holidays during our working lives. For us europeans it is probably easier to move to other countries in Europe so we have already gotten our residency and we imported our car. We are currently based in Umbria which we have always loved but in the back of our minds we can never forget about Sicily. We spend a month in the north/east region about 7 years ago and we loved it. Now that we found your channel my husband is even more exited for he has worked for IBM management in Holland for more that 40 years and the is very "Americanized "😉. Long story short; we are planning a trip to come and see more of the south/west region. The one thing that stuck with me though after visiting 7 years ago was the stray animal situation. We could hardly eat a meal outside without the place being crowded with cats and dogs many in very bad condition. Same for the garbage spots. Me being a great animal lover was left broken hearted so I was wondering if you have anything to say about that situation since I know the laws on animal husbandry changed very recently in Italy in favor of the animals. You might think I am crazy but I would really appreciate an answer on that topic if you can relate. Good luck with all you do and we hope to meet you one day soon. Kind regards, Anouk

We will address this issue on a future show- alfred

[@mackenzie1512]

@@YouMeandSicily Thank you very much Alfred, looking forward to it.

[@MissionaryInMexico]

Waiting... 👍😁

[@nancymaranto14]

Wow!! In good hands with Eszter and Al 👏💝. I learned so much about Ragusa, its historical past and current times. Gorgeous baroque città. Thank you for your walking video and information…I watched twice, so cool! Wonderful to meet the professor and those moving Sicily forward. Music and boat ride, relaxing. Talk to you soon, big hugs 🤗❤️

[@YouMeandSicily]

Grazie cara! I hope to see you soon!

[@chetipettodartanian]

Thank you for this video! Just wanted to add that the old San Giorgio church entry door is not the only remain from the 1693 earthquake. A significant portion of Santa Maria delle Scale church predates the earthquake, as well as San Rocco church and a single balcony that you would find on the other side of the live bridge you show in the video too. Enjoy Sicily! And thank you again for this video, it brought great memories of my hometown

[@YouMeandSicily]

So glad you enjoyed it!

[@janetlombardi2314]

Brilliant video Eszter the town of Ragusa looks beautiful 😍 so did the cheese board 😀. Really interesting to hear Professor Risario's views a very determined and driven mindset. I really hope it all works out. Looking at Scicily it really does have so much potential. Loved the singing a great 👍 finish. Thank you

Thank you!

Do you know Sara and Luca?

[@sgm6690]

There are many young Sicilians working and living here in Australia. We also have hundreds of thousands of first generation Sicilians here and Sicilian born too. Much closer connection than US Sicilians who are several generations removed. Until opportunities improve those young Sicilians living oversea will not return.

[@sgm6690]

Yes it is a generalization but the majority of American Italians are 3rd or 4th generation, don’t speak the language and probably haven’t been there. The majority of Italian Australians are either born there or first generation. This is because the US closed its doors to mass migration in the 1920’ s and Australia and Canada opened their doors post World War Two. No offence meant just an observation.
