CONFRONTING MY FEARS, I'M DOING IT ALONE!| EP 194

[@jules9628]

Got a posse of ladies, Im guessing who are or have been in that same fear mode-especially those who have had some scary moments, yet, just as many brave up and go anyway, prepared for situations unplanned. HIGH FIVE for going for it! Inspiring! Nice to see your beautiful daughter and a milestone accomplishment to get on on the roads! I have a question about the area from the drone, that showed, Hotel Caromella" I think. I see what looks like old or maybe ancient windows or doorways way down below the sign above, and maybe steps....I was wondering are these indeed parts of old cities or just caves etc?

[@NickiPositano]

Hello my dear, Carlo here, the Grand Hotel Cocumella is one of the most famous hotels in Sorrento, and it is probably also the oldest one, it has been operating since 1777, but the palace was completed in 1637, and until 1777 it was a convent of the Frati Gesuiti (Jesuit Fathers). One of the oldest visible areas of Sorrento is the area called; delle Antiche Mura, where you can see the remains of mighty walls that were used to defend the town, there are finds that suggest that Sorrento was already inhabited in the Neolithic period, which would be from 8000 BC to 3500 BC!💕😘

@@NickiPositano that is just amazing and fascinating. Greatly appreciate you taking time in answering. Will dig into some more info online-Blessings~

[@nancystraub9671]

I was wondering if everything is going OK with the trip. I've noticed that there r some very severe storms going in Europe for the past few days. Is Nicky ok?

Carlo, you are outdoing yourself with those drone shots! Incredible!

You are such an inspiration Nikki! You've got this!! Carlo - thank you for the wonderful drone footage. It was soooo relaxing. Loved seeing you and Skye having quality father- daughter time :)

[@rifka805]

Yes,i also love the drone footage with the music!!!!! Carlo is a spezialist!!!

[@leonardniamh]

Fantastic

[@leecarr9207]

Well done Nicki, driving solo is brave. Congratulations to Skye, the worst is over, driving test will be a breeze. Thank you again Nicki/Carlo for the fabulous scenary and travels that you share. Be safe and enjoy the week until the next video. 😍

[@aleta5873]

My poor 24 y.o grand daughter...for some reason (LA suburb traffic, probably) will not get her licence. We paid for 2 driving courses. She passed the written with flying colors but didn't pass the drivers test. The tester had to pull the wheel to the side to avoid a collision as she was entering the freeway...she didn't check her "blind" side. It was an automatic fail. Poor girl. When I learned, the streets were practically empty near our home. My Mom was a good driver/teacher. Taught me how to drive the freeways to and from downtown LA ((had a pediatric nursing class at county usc). The hospital was another matter. They actually had colored lines on the floor to follow to where you're going.

[@vcrouch6041]

Amazing drone footage, some of the best I have seen! Safe travels Nicki. Congratulations Skye.

[@yrciamiel8723]

Honestly, from my perspective, driving solo to the UK is an easy part of the trip, compared to the devilish steps climbing in the middle of a day 🤣🤣🤣 Have a wonderful trip! Safe drives!

[@sirbigglesmaxwell5770]

My husband & I smile often when you all are on our TV! Thank you soooo very much for adding extra SUNSHINE to our home in Venice Florida!!!!

[@SamFournier]

Wow, the stillness and the color of the water was unreal! Sometimes the music you use reminds me of Narnia. I couldn’t stop laughing how Carlo said you need to come back for the camera. If only the world could see all that goes on behind the scenes of making a KZbin video 😂

[@jellyfish6056]

I love the behind the scenes clips too! Maybe it can be an extra video one week in the future?

[@harjindersaroya6604]

@@jellyfish6056 yes, was thinking exactly the same! Would be highly entertaining and informative.

[@stknmggs1788]

We all have fears and this is a great reminder for us all to go for it and face the fear down.

[@normawright3179]

What a great video for all of you. Wow - the drone footage is unbelievable. You know Nicki I think I would've been a little unnerved too, travelling alone from Italy to England...but you got this. I'm a single woman and you've inspired me to make the trip next year to Positano - on my own!!!! Congrats Skye on passing the test. Have a great week - safe travels Nicki and we'll catch you next Sunday!!!

[@monisclair]

Well done for being so brave! It's all good and you'll be in the UK in no time :) It's great to see Indie feeling more comfortable with water and so relaxed in the car. Loving the Sunday video as always. Well done to Skye for passing her theory!!

[@Minxywitch]

Hollypoo! 😍🥰 Congratulations to Skye 🎉 Well done Nicki for doing the journey - I hope you have a lovely time with your dad. Thank you to you & Carlo (& Skye!) for taking us with you on your travels & daily life. 💜

[@dianacc456]

The food is the best part of Italy! You tease us telling us you are going to eat to celebrate and barely showed it! Congratulations on passing the exam Skye. Love to you all from Canada.

[@juliekohry9385]

Carlo loved your drone and visit to the beach with Holly, she had fun in the sand! Well done Skye, good to celebrate with your Dad, a lovely day for you both.

[@soletteperry3279]

The videography is absolutely stunning with the music selections. It fully immerses you into each location and event. I appreciate Skye letting us join in on her driving accomplishment and realized that everyone on this Positano trip accomplished a lot on this adventure ♥️ Mahalo Positano ohana!

[@ariellesoullighting4309]

You have to be the only person in the world who looks younger when you put on your glasses! All of this is lovely! And the music choices, as always, are stellar. Carlo's drone shots - like Dan's - are so expert now that I can't tell what he's doing!

[@AbiNomac]

Well done Nicki. Confronting fears is hard to do. Bravo.

[@akossarfo-kantanka7231]

I’m so proud of you Nicki, you taking the leap and conquering your fears inspires so many of us to do the same. Also as a person who isn’t very close with my father, see the bond you have with your father, and the amazing relationship Carlo and Skye share brings me to tears of joy. safe travels, I can’t wait for a jam collection update.💕

[@judithgreen3689]

Great drone shots! Love all those boats & blue umbrellas dotting the beach. Great to see father & daughter enjoying a day together. She’s becoming such a lovely young lady. I’m sure Nicki is doing fine. At heart she has a very independent spirit, even if she doesn’t realize it.

[@Game-yl2lh]

He is very proud of his beautiful daughter.

[@cherylanderson3340]

What a pleasure it is to be watching you, Carlo & more lovely & amazing settings & excursions, in Italy, England & elsewhere. Thanks Carlo for the bike ride & beach scenery, & the delightful aerial sweeping drone footage of life & the clusters of dwellings on the mountainside along the coastline, panning the scenery. Congrats to Skye, as well! I love when you've just spent time in your beautiful home & we get to walk through your lush gardens too. In this one, I see that Indy has become a bit older since I last saw her. She was at the beach I think. She & Holly went into the restaurant with you & Carlo & were both so well behaved. In this one, when you found the spot recommended to you, & walked down to the secluded waterway beyond the bridge, she was staying close by, walking at your pace, checking out the place like a tourist. I can see the civilizing effect you've all had on her. This trip will further shape her. Watching this seems even more wonderful for me because I just found my phone a couple days ago, after losing sight of it for over a week. Ugh. It got misplaced while reorganizing & sorting out my home during a prolonged heatwave. We hit 100°, I think, & it was very humid in this part of Massachusetts. I don't have AC, but I had to keep busy trying to find my phone, which I finally did. It was hard to escape reality in a TV show or KZbin without being able to watch shows on my phone. It's even made worse since my computer crapped out recently. So I'm loving that I can watch this episode tonight on my phone again. I'll go back now, & pick up where I left off. 'Just wanted to tell you how beautiful your walkway looks with flowering vines overhead & along one side. Also, you look great! I love how the kitchen is now too.

[@julieannangio]

Thank you for the beautiful video! Love the refreshing sights and sounds of all the rivers, waterfalls and river swimming in the past few videos. It almost like you can feel how cool and refreshing it is.

[@suzyq6767]

When I travel from our winter home near Mexico to our summer home near Canada, I drive by myself with three dogs, 2 labs and a yorkie. I don't stop much along the way but drive 10-12 hours for two days in a row. I planted two varieties of the flat types so as to have successive ripening. I believe they are the sweetest, juiciest peaches I've ever eaten. Yes, hiking on steps in the heat is awful. I travel early and blast the AC during trips. It's nice to see Skye all grown up. Like you, I gave up fear. It's rather a useless emotion. Thank you for chronicling your adventures.

Congratulations and serious respect to Skye. I would not drive on those roads - ever. Full stop. Driving tests are always nerve racking. But to take your test there and esp this time of year with all the traffic and non locals on the road. I travel a lot on those roads but only as a passenger. To pass your test there and this time of year - you have my admiration.
