Santa Domenica Talao Calabria Italy Community Tour

[@5deacon]

Thank you for the drone footage, it adds so much to the video, by providing us with more visual information about the lay of the land.

[@kathryn2483]

Gorgeous drone video.!!!!

[@SuperSavvyTravelersLLC]

Hi Dave! Thank you for your amazing videos of our village! It is so great to see it through someone else's eyes. The lovely house you show in the back of the village just sold. Next time you come, let me take you inside. It is all 1920's with the original cement floor tiles in multiple colors. The new owners are bringing it back exactly as it was in the 1920's and salvaging the floors. They will have a roof terrace with sea and mountain views and a gorgeous house when it is done. I am sure they would love to show you as it gets renovated. We are so enjoying your videos and I hope next time we can spend more time together. It got super busy but we so loved the time we did get to spend with you and your adorable family. Love you guys!

[@janetlombardi2314]

Thank you for this video. I have heard Chris talk about this area but have never seen what it is like. It is an ancient place with beautiful views. Looking forward to seeing more

I've wanted to see a detailed video like this of SDT for many years. Well done and thanks. Great effort by you. Really comprehensive footage.

[@DauvO]

Glad to hear it! I've been waiting for a long time to make it too! Happy if it helps!

[@PeteSobolev]

Nice views of SDT and your drone footage is fantastic!

[@2nGeneva]

Nice video Dauvo. You really got a workout on that one! I really like the drone footage. It helps to understand the layout better. Keep up the good work.

[@DauvO]

Thanks Joseph! Will do!

[@tracymcgrath9232]

Thank you for taking us on a walk about...I would be so lost...We appreciate what you and Chris do for us in the viewing community. From our family to yours.. have a beautiful day!

[@susanryan3579]

Wow, those views are incredible! So great to see your perspective on SDT. Thanks for another great video!

[@fatmahf4802]

I love this video. Thank you for showing us how beautiful Santa Domenica Talao is.

[@moniqueoberholzer1282]

Wow I have never seen a cemetery like that in my life! The scenery is beautiful thank you for hiking through the town just too show the interesting places for us, David

[@DauvO]

Thanks Monique. Nice to hear from you as always! That cemetery had some prime real estate for sure!

[@floridastitcher1]

Stunning video! The Italians must be in great shape.

[@DauvO]

I am a firm believer that if they held an elderly Olympics the Italians would win any foot race hands down. 🤣😇

[@marcol3259]

That's why Italians live the longest in the world ! Old people keep activity, eat healthy, no stress, good whether and they support each other in every community ! In my village in Liguria life expectancy is very high

[@DauvO]

@Marco L I am Liguria now! Any good deals you know about?

[@marcol3259]

@UCzrgaqLvKumVaAL5DkN2VzA I am from a village called Badalucco but I live in London now ! Near my village there is so many amazing almost empty villages and full of history and beaty Triora, andagna, montalto !

[@marcol3259]

There is super small village in the comume of badalucco called ( ciabaudo ) I think no one live there anymore and is a paradise ! And we are super close to Montecarlo, Sanremo, Nice.

[@TravelingisFREEDOM]

This seems to be a very interesting place, I hope I can visit sometime in the future. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much! And please keep up the great job! Subscribed!!

[@DauvO]

Wow Thanks for Subscribing! Glad to hear you share the same interests!

[@virginiafeliciano9318]

Great video! I’ve seen so many videos that Chris has posted and now yours that I feel like I’ve already been there even though I’ve never set foot in this town. I do hope to one day go and visit and check out any opportunities that might be left.

[@DauvO]

Hi Virginia! I encourage you to check out a number of places. You never know what you'll discover till you try!

[@lauratracy4033]

Virginia, it may be easier than you think. American Airlines is giving enough frequent flyer miles to by an international roundtrip ticket when you apply for a credit card. You have to buy something with the card but it could cost under $1. If you go after we close on the purchase of my home, you could stay there. I wouldn't charge you. It's very close to the piazza. It isn't spectacular yet but you can't beat free. There is a strong spiritual feeling you get there. It is the most incredible place I've ever been. The people are amazing!!!

[@virginiafeliciano9318]

@@lauratracy4033 oh wow Laura thank you!!!! What a wonderful offer and I will definitely keep that in mind.

[@ernabme]

Good morning, from Alaska!

[@giuliom8520]

Beautiful place! My kinda town, but how are the mountain biking trails? Are there any?

[@mosafrusjenkens]

You should do a new video on Santa Domenica Talao!

[@DauvO]

Thanks for the suggestion. I have been considering visiting Chris and Pete's new rental property actually.

[@ladonnav1273]

I will be coming in Oct! Hope to meet you! I've already reached out to Chris 😀

[@DauvO]

Hi LaDonna! I won't be in that area in October, but if you are near Milan. Let me know!

[@boboneill6554]

So many steps!

[@belindamiller7808]

Sounds like you could have used a cold glass of Pinot! With a little paint, the town would look like Portofino!

[@DauvO]

Haha. I love Portofino! I think it takes 2nd place on places I've visited multple times.

[@angier2289]

Wow, it looks like a lot of improvements are being made at least in part sparked by foreign buyers introduced to this area thanks to Chris’ (super Savvy travellers) and your you tube channels.

[@annmariemazzotta2495]

You don’t need to at the gym ,,love the hills ,wish we had them here in Massachusetts ,nothing.

[@tanner293]

almost every village in Calabria looks like this, some are even prettier

[@ShweMyaukMyauk]

Probably....this one just looks ok

[@gabrielleireland4094]

Maybe but they don't have the Bar A'Chiazza or the Bella Vista! 😁

[@tnt8092]

There are so many towns in Italy, built on a side of a hill…where is the flat land, ? Nice viewing Dauvo

[@ShweMyaukMyauk]

Well these are medieval towns....so if you think about it, why people build on hills. Not for the vistas but.....you know the answers

[@thetemptedvida8650]

We have a lot of hilltowns in Italy basically for 3 reasons: 1) 77% of the Italian territory is hills and mountains, and if you want to consider just the central and southern part of the country this percentage increases even more 2) Back in the old days most of the valleys were not an healthy environment because of mosquitoes and diseases, plus the soil was bad for harvesting 3) Historically establishing a settlement on a hill was important for strategic reasons, it was an advantage in case someone wanted to attack the town and the inhabitants could see them so they could have the chance to defend themselves as better as possible

Dave, checkout badolato provincia di catanzaro un borgo inpressionante grazie

[@DauvO]

Thanks looking out up right now!

[@claudiacables1764]

Watching this video m, I’m wondering how people move furniture in and out? Just walking with the groceries must be a workout? 😳

[@ShweMyaukMyauk]

Love this video, better now without those trendy intrusive music or at least the volume is controlled

[@anthonylamesa7619]

Historically, would the town have had a paint job? Different colors?

[@smacospasovski5123]

Great videos.Need a trusted lawyer in northern Italy to buy a house.Still not allowed to go as a tourist.Thanks in advance

[@DauvO]

Still blocked eh? I'll be talking to a lawyer this week. I'll let you know how it goes.

[@smacospasovski5123]

[@05glisedan]

We enjoy every video you and Savvy put out. DW turned me on to her channel. After our visit to Venice, we'll have to visit SDT... Seems like an achievable goal to possibly buy property there. Thanks for posting. Looking forward to the next episode....

[@ricardocesarmachado]

Una Bellissima Italia, purtroppo dimenticata per i propri italiani 😔

[@DauvO]

Ma i Borgi sono belli, speriamo di farli ricordarle.

[@annmariemazzotta2495]

The cemetery has the best view haaaaaaa

[@Zongroned]

Ciao. DauvO Will you be interested to visit my renovation project in Cropani? Where can I send you photos/ videos. ??

[@DauvO]

Yes most definitely! Let's talk! [e-mail]

[@Zongroned]

Ciao

[@mrjke007]

Do you speak English 😂very 🆒 Wonderful all round views I like what you wrote, but if the whole town got a lick of paint 🎨 the cost of buying would go up tenfold, but it would get much more attention for sure. Someone’s living large with a pool 😅

[@DauvO]

Haha! I wanted to jump in it. I'm in Liguria right now.. I could use the pool today too!
