Italy Everyday Life - Calabria, Italy - Episode 96

[@normaduffus9755]

Justin and Michael.... I have such admiration for you. Despite your various medical conditions, you manage to stay so positive! You are an inspiration!

[@MichaelandJustin]

Hi Norma. We have both decided to make the most of life. We could sit here, and mope around. But, that does not help. Life is, after all, what we make it. And, we are going to make our lives as BEAUTIFUL as possible. Despite the hinderences that may stand in the way. Thank you so much for your kindness. Baci Baci.

Thank guys for this & Michael it seems Italy is truly pushing you! I’m never ever going to say not to try pushing yourself! So very proud of you for doing that! Push & get stronger! Your amazing. Tell Karen Hi

[@MichaelandJustin]

Hi Leon. I, Michael, thank you so much for the support. I used to spend so much time concerned with how I looked when walking, or trying to get around. As such, there was so much I did not get the chance to experience. And, now, I have just decided that I am going to go for it, and stop caring how I may look. Lol. Thanks so much for the support. And for watching. Baci Baci.

[@susanryan3579]

I love the positivity in your wonderful videos. They are a real treat to watch. The soundtrack to this episode was great and I really enjoyed looking at the beautiful scenes in the centro historico as well as that lovely sunset. I never get tired of seeing what you eat 🍰 The garden is looking lovely too. Your lifestyle is really inspiring! Grazie mille. 🥰🥰

The historic center is beautiful. No need to go to the gym. Morning cappuccino is the best. I always prepare myself with a coffee and sweet before watching your videos. Love it!! Michael…you are amazing!

[@MichaelandJustin]

Hi there B Vas. It is a smart decision to prep with treats and coffee before watching. We support that fully. Yes, the centro is beautiful, and quite the work out. And I, Michael, would like to thank you so much for the kindness. Thank you for watching. Baci Baci.

[@janetlombardi2314]

Hey guy's another awesome video. A great mix. Those pastries are definitely hard to resist yum 😋 When I was in Italy I was having one everyday sometimes 2 lol 😆. The historic centre looks so authentic I love the old buildings. Michael you did so well climbing up those steps keep going it's good exercise for you. Conad is one of my favs I spent lots of time in the store in Naples just wondering around. I built a great rapport with the people who worked there they were so helpful and friendly. Loving all the views and your villa is so pretty. Lovely to see momma Karen I hope she is feeling better and she is enjoying Italy big hugs for her ❤️ Thank you with much love ❤️ 😍

[@MichaelandJustin]

Hi Janet. Thank you so much for such a kind and thoughtful comment. We appreciate it so much. We are always so happy to get to share our experiences here. I, Michael, am always ready to tackle the difficulties. Lol. The people in Italy are all so sweet. It is so nice to get to become part of the community, and have that rapport. We thank you so much for watching. Baci Baci.

[@hrbille]

It´s such beautyfull place, I hope I´l live in a place like that one day. Thanks for sharing.

[@MichaelandJustin]

[@joycef2499]

Your weather looks a bit like Australia at the moment. Spring has been a bit wet, cold and some hot humid days. Your garden is looking beautiful and that view to die for wow. Love the old part of the town and that property that’s up for sale just beautiful. Xx😘😘

[@MichaelandJustin]

Hey there Joyce. The weather here (for now) is very nice. Just starting to get cold. But still warm enough. The Centro Storico is always nice to walk in. It is so pretty. And, thank you so much for your kind words of our garden. We are so happy to get to live here. Thanks for watching. Baci Baci.

[@anamariaedwards5869]

Another very enjoyable video! Justin you are such a great commentator!,,, And Michael you remind me so much of my sister Teresa... She was very funny and sweet like you, and had ability issues as well. She was paralyzed for 30 years but still wanted to river raft, travel, camp,, Watching you is like watching Teresa,, Just such a zeal for life and to keep going.. You rock!! Such a winning team!!

[@MichaelandJustin]

Hi there, Anamaria. Thank you so much for such kindness. You are very sweet. I decided, upon moving to Italy, that I was not going to let my disability stop me from experiencing life to the fullest way possible. Your sister sounds like an amazing person. Again, thank you so much for this very sweet message. Baci Baci.

[@ErmyPedata]

I miss the italian fruit and vegetables here in the UK! Enjoy to the fullest, guys!!!

[@MichaelandJustin]

The produce here in Calabria is always just so perfect. So fresh. We love it. Thanks for watcning. Baci Bacil.

[@jonloer9522]

Love this video guys. So nice to see your daily life in Italy. Looking forward to hopefully meeting you soon.

[@MichaelandJustin]

Hi Jon. We are happy to know that you liked the episode. Daily life here is always so nice. Thanks for watching. Baci Baci.

[@naomiu3779]

We loved our months spent in the Centro Storico but I’m not missing hiking up those stairs!

[@MichaelandJustin]

It’s quite magical day and night . Ugh the stairs…great work out place for sure. 💪

[@Ponkelina]

I love the large Conad stores

[@MichaelandJustin]

Aren't they amazing. We love going there. So much great food. Thanks for watching. Baci Baci.

[@louisealbrecht3066]

Mom, always cute, making sure even though many videos show her having treats, she wants to make sure people know she doesn't eat sweets all day long! 😂🤣 No worries, we now know Karen! One of things I enjoyed doing in Italy was having an espresso or cappuccino and people watch! Micheal, you seize to amaze us! Good for you! Bravo! 👏Justin, you are so right, how can you not love cheese! That market seems to have a nice selection! Yummy! 😋And they even have a nice little restaurant!Wondering, will you be having a Thanksgiving Dinner still, even though you now live in Italy? So you now have your Italian Passport! Fantastico! Lovely Sunset Views from your home...Have a great rest of your week! 😘😘😘

[@MichaelandJustin]

Louise, we do the same thing. (I, Michael, could honestly drink coffee all day. I LOVE the stuff.) Thank you for your kind words to me. They make me smile. We will not be doing any type of Thanksgiving meal. To be honest, we never really did much before, anyway. We are sure there will be yummy food...but there always is. We are very happy with the sunsets, and sea views at our home. They are so fantastic. Thank you so much for watching. Baci Baci.

[@nursecarole2634]

@@MichaelandJustin just got back from a 6 week trip, it was exactly as you filmed it !!! great food and living.happy people god bless

[@tuula9952]

Ciao bello ragazzi! I love your episode today, and the grocery store walk-through was great. The crunchy peanut butter has been a love affair since I came to the US in 2010. I never ate peanut butter before I came to the US. One question: I am celiac, do they have, in general, good foods and gluten-free options at restaurants and grocery stores in Italy? Once again, those views are just fantastic! Love the old part of Scalea. Just so beautiful! Thanks for sharing! 😍

[@MichaelandJustin]

Hi hun. Glad you enjoyed the episode. Yes, we’ve seen gluten free section in supermarkets here. We have friends from USA kindly bring us extra crunchy peanut butter, our sinful yum yum treat. Huge hugs 🤗

[@tuula9952]

@@MichaelandJustin Truly, we cannot live without crunchy peanut butter LOL I knew from the very first moment I started to follow you that we have something in common! 😂

[@MaryLucie-x7m]

Hello, love your channel. My family is from Calabria and we have a home a bit further south from you, love watching and feeling connected year round to Calabria. Keep up the great work. One suggestion, comment is sometimes the music played during your walks and such is jarring, I would love to hear fellow Calabrese speaking Italian around you instead of the disco music. Love you guys baci ❤

[@MichaelandJustin]

Thanks for watching our channel. Regards to music, we place it when we need to cover other copyright issue songs heard around town. KZbin has special music we can use to cover other music we can’t use. We try to vary the styles

[@MaryLucie-x7m]

@@MichaelandJustin thanks for the info, would love to hear more Italian spoken by the locals when you are out and about if you ever have the chance. Such a Bella lingua! Also, is there a local dialect spoken in your area? I know that my area of Calabria has a dialect specific to our town, just curious, baci. Michael you are an inspiration to us all!

[@peggyseebach9218]

I can't wait to be living there too! I was looking online at a house in your neighborhood.... is it a walkable area? I want the view, but to be able to walk to the bakery, etc

[@MichaelandJustin]

Hi Peggy. We are going to say that, to be in our specific neighborhood (Baia Del Carpino) you would need a car to get to the piazza. With that said, there are SEVERAL places that you can find, that are walkable to the piazza. We are sure you will be able to find the perfect place for your dream life. We thank you so much for watching. Baci Baci.

[@julieschommer1644]

Thank you for all your efforts in filming the video. I must be a slow reader but I have a hard time watching when you move the camera around so fast. My stomach feels like I, m om a roller coaster. Could you please think about slowing the camera down a little bit. Have you checked out Renovating a Ruin ? It,s very interesting.

[@MichaelandJustin]

We do watch the Renovating a Ruin. We love it. They are always so entertainting. Thanks for watching our channel, Julie. We appreciate your time. Baci Baci.

[@IleneJarv]

This is a silly question, but your mom's nails are gorgeous! Where in Scalea did she get them done?

[@MichaelandJustin]

The place is called ANIMA Beauty and Wellness, and is on Via Nino Bixio, down by the Piazza, in Scalea. She likes them here very much. Thanks for watching. Baci Baci.

[@user-wi1tl9ev6y]

Um, getting dizzy again with the too quick panning of the camera in the grocery store. Might I suggest long shots with cuts to next scene? Love watching, but have to look away often during the panning. ❤

[@MichaelandJustin]

Thanks for the tip, L. Baci Baci.
