LAST DAYS ON VIRGIN VOYAGES VALIANT LADY | AJACCIO & IBIZA | MEDITERRANEAN CRUISE VLOG

[@88citykid]

Thank you for sharing on your most recent vid. Like you said, you don’t owe anyone an explanation so it is definitely appreciated! And thank you for being an example of an amicable/ conscious break up. Not everything has to end badly! Relationships of all types can end in good terms. Wish you both all the best and excited for what comes next. 💗

[@gypsyspirit8519]

You don't know it, but watching your vlogs got me through a year of severe illness with autoimmune liver failure and a liver transplant 6 months ago. You ARE someone. Your videos gave me something relaxing, fun and kind to watch while I was either feeling dreadful or more recently recovering. Your videos touch more people than I am sure you know. I hope you are BOTH happy. Life is short so live your best one. Take it from someone who knows!

[@vinniechudam1835]

I just redeemed 80,000 Virgin Atlantic Flying Club frequent flyer points for this 7 day Med cruise for July, booked a sea view terrace. Thanks for all the insights at your port destinations.

[@Cali-707-ica]

Hey Francesco, thanks for sharing your trip aboard the Valiant Lady. I will be onboard VL for the repositioning cruise from Barcelona to Miami in October, a 14 day trip!

[@charleneheiland8803]

Your speaking voice is lovely. Your singing voice .....keep your daytime job 😂Happy safe travels always. Grandma H🌹

[@ken306809]

WOW guys , I am so sorry to hear about the breakup but I'm glad it's amicable

[@JoseRivera-ie6nm]

You and your entire friends and John have become a part of my life. I’m so sorry about the latest news that made me teary eye. I do agree with John you are very important to some us the follow you and just feel like we are there right with you during your travels work and home shows.

[@CharmsByCj]

So FUN! Thanks for sharing! Love the karaoke part...

[@LIFEbyFrancesco]

Thank you 🤗

[@planesandcooking5142]

I really admire you. Been watching for years. Such confidence in front of the camera and singing too!

[@djblankita6885]

Enjoy watching your videos no matter if traveling or at home love you and John and mia

[@LMays-cu2hp]

Thank you for sharing your great trip here!!! So nice!!!

[@LMays-cu2hp]

I like you feel comfortable on your cruises. Nice!!!

[@caroledowney6908]

Last time I was in Med during early May it was 80-90 degrees every day.This year seemed to be cold , windy stormy for everyone all month: food looks amazing on this ship.

[@vibesix]

I booked a 7night out of San Juan in Feb and these vids are getting me so excited!

[@ellyh4994]

Lovely series, thank you. Loved seeing more of Noel, too. What a nice person. X

[@dianeschroeder3980]

What a great trip Francesco. Thanks for taking me along! I still can’t believe how few people were on your ship ❤️✈️🛳️

[@ofirvine8086]

I had a feeling this was near.. omg a separation!

[@susiew6851]

I'm so sorry you and John are separating. I had a feeling something was going on being that you went on the cruise right after the graduation. I do realize this is your personal business and I appreciate you sharing this with us all.

[@roter13]

They have looked more like friends than lovers for a very long time so it was not a surprise to me at all. Still a little sad though.

[@randyroachjr9974]

Great cruise vlog Francesco everything looked so nice and I love those little streets with cafes and shops so quaint. And of course the food always looks so good.

[@Indigosoul127]

I do not think I can do Europe on a ship. I'd rather go on my own and explore with far more time. However, I would love to visit virgin cruise but do a shorter stay somewhere else. I love the fact that it was almost empty when you guys went, I think it gives you better service.

[@louisco3603]

[@edyoung9899]

We are on the Valiant Lady this week, loving it! LOVE Noel’s shirt he wore on the last night.

[@a.l.mengel3808]

Oh my, Karaoke! I also sing as well (Karaoke only, of course). Looks like the cruise was fun. Thanks for sharing

[@jolene54]

Really enjoyable vlog. Lots of things are going on in just 20 minutes. The time-lapse footage is great.

[@lawrenceakini9507]

Take care. Thanks for this vlog. Keep on sailing. Ciao. 2023.

[@bphipps312]

Such a great series it looks like fun. Trying to convince my husband to go on a cruise so keep showing him your vlogs to sway him 😊 love you guys I got so excited when I was at work today and got the bell 🛎 notification of a new video I couldn't wait to watch ♥

[@Dallas-214]

I am still in shock. 😢 im at a loss for words. I did not realize this would impact me so much. I felt like part of your family as a viewer.😢

[@jeffreyhuot5572]

My new favorite vlog.

[@loristitt1836]

Just sailed on scarlet lady for 5 nights and truly the private karaoke room were the freakin bomb!!! So much fun! Looks like you had an awesome trip!

[@lyndaboca8111]

Safe travels home to hot humid South Florida! Thank you for sharing your wonderful cruise with us - which port was your favorite?

[@trevorwilley4301]

Thanks for sharing! Very nice.

[@rj4356]

🥰 Adulting.....excellent choice❣️

[@Indigosoul127]

Noel, visit Foot Solution back home. They scan your feet and design an orthopedic insert for your feet. You probably need proper arch support for you. I did a game changer , I can walk anywhere.

[@pchaynes]

Francesco, I know you disabled comments on your announcement vlog about you and John separating and I respect that but I just want you to know how sad 😢 it makes me and I'm so glad it's amicable. I wish you and John the very best in your respective futures, and I certainly will keep following lifebyfrancesco, one of my absolute favorite vlogs.❤ I do have one burning question though and that is who is going to get custody of the Halloween decorations? 🎃 🦇 John, if you ever decide to start a vlog I would love to be one of the first to subscribe to your channel.

[@flu4pdmt]

I just found this out reading your comment. I’m so bummed; I loved them together and they seemed the perfect pair. I will still continue to watch the vlogs as Francesco is probably my favorite blogger. I wish them both the absolute best in life.

[@Nicolaslecannois]

So sorry to hear about your brake up! 😥 7 year’s mark is a challenge, was tuff for my couple too and we broke up at 10 and I kept the cats! Lol Was hoping to meet you both some day!? Even it is more likely to meet you Francesco in an airport somewhere! ❤ See you!

[@terireid651]

I meant to comment before. I was 😢to read about your separation. I loved seeing you together. Life goes on and I wish you both all the best. You both deserve it. I wondered how you were splitting everything up? Keep smiling. God bless.

[@MJK1965]

That was wonderful.

[@ericpatterson5050]

The Boy is Mine!🙌🏿🕺🏽🕺🏽🎙🎵🎶💜

[@ChinaDollTravels]

Wow this cruise 🚢 went by fast 💨

[@kkrivs7864]

your cruise vlogs always make me forget what a terrible cruise experience i had lol . looks like a great time!

[@petesantos7372]

I am heading to BCN this week for the Daze and Nights VV cruise. I got some points from the stops you visited.

[@QueenASMR2019]

Looks like so much fun. You’ve convinced me to try cruising again.

[@emeliapayton3032]

I'm in Ibiza now to party you need to go to the clubs! Amnesia, Giitter box. If you ever go again take a trip to Formentera the beaches are so beautiful 😍

[@LIFEbyFrancesco]

I'll have to make another visit 😊

[@patriciafuchs5970]

Looks like you got your exercise in Corsica!

[@ReneeGaud]

I'm sorry about you and John, but I applaud how mature and well you are both handling things. Best of luck to both of you!!

[@asimplekindofchaos]

I think people often think of the Mediterranean as the Caribbean of Europe but Barcelona is actually a bit further north than New York City. Of course, there are different climates but as a general rule of thumb, same Latitude and Elevation at the same time of year will be more similar than not.

[@chuck3700]

How do you keep up your schedule? Thanks for sharing your adventures with us.

[@debracoulter1250]

I’ve seen the tiny one passenger cars at the Versailles Palace in France. They are security vehicles there. 😂

[@gaillayton2855]

What a great trip. I think you wore Noel out. He is a great travel partner.....so easy going. Where to next?

[@LIFEbyFrancesco]

He is a great travel partner! Next stop...DISNEY WORLD!

[@matthewcatinella]

​@LIFEbyFrancesco hey just saw your most recent video about you and john separating. Im a loca resident to ft Lauderdale and wanted to offer my friendship. I get really great vibes from watching your videos and would love to meet sometime.

[@FunFoodie78]

Love your energy. I wish I could do Karaoke with you…..thanks for sharing your video😊.

[@grapestsx]

Nice vid, I’m going in September but the French Daze and Ibiza nights. What would you say is the average age on the cruise?? I’m going solo, hopefully I can make some friends to party with! 🙌🥂

[@lucyciprian597]

Hi Francesco, going on the same cruise in July, do they have the same shuttles to bring you back to the ship after going to the bars in Ibiza? Thanks!!!!

[@bobgraham3289]

Noel's glasses are great and Francesco's last shirt was fabulous. I thought the itinerary was really interesting.

[@brad_Ca]

I so enjoy your cruise videos and this one definitely did not disappoint.

[@semsemeini7905]

Formentera has wonderful beaches!!! I like your shirts on the last night. Every month a cruise?? LOL. The ports did not impress me. Except for your tour of Florence.

[@jacquelinehenseleit6007]

Thank you for showing us your cruise. Is your cruise all inclusive?

[@flu4pdmt]

I’m curious Francesco, do you like it when the ship isn’t packed. 900 out of 2770 to me would be lovely. Every cruise I’m on is always packed or at capacity…lol.

[@Nicolaslecannois]

Hey! Yes May is not the best time to get warm weather in Europe! How did you fly to MIA? ❤

[@markdoucette5189]

Hey handsome! Glad you enjoyed yourself. Xx from #PalmSprings

[@dipaola702]

Wonderful video! It looks like both of you had a blast!!!

[@LIFEbyFrancesco]

We did! Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video :)

[@robbar42]

flawless italian by the way

[@LIFEbyFrancesco]

Grazie 😊

[@ShannonMMiller]

Loving this cruise series!! The Karaoke clips were great!!

[@ernestjohnson9464]

Sorry to hear about you and John!! Anyway I will still look at your video 📹!! Anyway enjoy your time ⌚ on the ship 🛳!! God bless!!

[@ITA80Y]

Another awsome Vlog! Makes me excited for my VV in August Departing Athens, cant wait!!!

[@peteypete8180]

Is it John graduating or what?I can’t see what was obvious about them gonna break up😮😢

[@semsemeini7905]

You can only go to the beach the 3rd week of June usually. And the water is coooold. The warmest is at 3 PM. Nothing much. Bonifacao is unique but it's in the south.

[@shawnburrowes5854]

Very shock on the last video..... Love and still you guys as a couple. The main thing you guys are still friends. I will still watch your videos because it remind me of the working days for the airlines. Love you guys... Hugs from Germany

[@kristypaul8067]

Fantastic vlog Francesco ❤

[@shropshirelass264]

Great cruise and interesting destinations. I love travelling around Europe by cruise ship. A taster to longer holidays in the future.

[@johnmichaelquinn1389]

Great vlog!!! So happ you're having a good time.....

[@robbar42]

I can tell from the pizzas you are no longer in Italy hahaha. bon appétit!

[@francescocampobasso9370]

Bravo!!! You sing very well in Italian LOL--I always enjoy watching your videos!

[@NESTORMAGANA-w3t]

do you know if your travel agent/ know about or how to get the airline discount rate on a cruise?

[@LIFEbyFrancesco]

Yes! He sure does.

[@damnimloomin]

Is the ice cream not the same on the European ship? Maybe they use ingredients that are illegal in Europe on the North American ship 🤔 23:57 is that mean girls 👀 🤣

[@charleneheiland8803]

This video is about your cruise but now I am seeing comments regarding parting ways. Can't leave a comment there,so this is the next best (?)....Yes it is your personal business. Have enjoyed both of you and only want the best for both of you as you move forward. Peace,love happiness and good health always. Grandma Great Grandma H 🥰🌹😇

[@sheilacrosby4894]

You have so much joire de vivre

[@LIFEbyFrancesco]

Thank you ❤️

[@sheilacrosby4894]

You are welcome

[@Frank-in-PalmSprings]

Noel is fantastic!! To be honest, ANOTHER Francesco Virgin Voyage had no interest for me, but I love watching Noel discover the ports!!! 🎉

[@flu4pdmt]

Wow, to be honest, not a very nice comment. I enjoy all his videos no matter what they are.

[@neverwhereunseen6293]

It's great you found something to enjoy in this vlog! Noel is fantastic!! He's a sweetheart ❤️

[@lisadaniels362]

I hope you and John can work through things and find a way to stay together.

[@roter13]

I honestly feel like they just grew apart and out of love with each other.

[@honeybunny-tomhickey2686]

I see your friend has an Irish calddagh love ring….. but it’s turned out so she’s single and looking for the person he’ll fall in love with 😍

[@wesleysaunders1291]

Sorry about the breakup guys I love your channel I’m here for the long haul love your vlogs. ❤😘

[@alant40001]

Sorry to hear about your breakup. I’m divorced for 15 years and my ex wife and I are still the best of friends. But I saw some of the things that preceded my breakup in yours. Traveling with others and not your significant other is a slight giveaway to me. Was for me in my case. Wishing you all the best in any case.

[@egtravel]

You've convinced me yet again! I am GOING on a Virgin Voyage cruise come heck or high waters! Also I love Noel's airplane shirt!!! Looking forward to your future adventures! Keep up the great work. 🥳🥂🍾⚓️🛟🚢

[@Michael-Bennett]

I also love Noel's shirt.

[@LIFEbyFrancesco]

Yay! I love to hear that you want to go on a virgin cruise!

[@susanmitchell1662]

John seems so genuine and real...but you seem fake. I have to wonder if that led to the breakup.

[@islandbaby4704]

Ajaccio is pronounced “uh-jak-see-ow”

[@Michael-Bennett]

I really enjoyed seeing this series. The food seems quite different from what one gets on the traditional cruise lines. It looks like Virgin is targeting a younger crowd, based on their entertainment. I'm surprised that the ship never seemed busy. Where was everybody?

[@LIFEbyFrancesco]

It wasn't a full ship. Only about 900 sailors. Ships holds about 2700.

[@iainsanders4775]

H'mm, wonder if Francesco will be spending much time in Disney Florida, or using Port Miami again after it's been declared hostile..! P'haps he'll rely on his own judgement & experience though..

[@tarquincummerbund6997]

Francesco, you have a very nice voice, if not suitable for singing….

[@Imenjoyingmyself]

I adore him but Francesco is a bit shady. You had no business having that young man take the stairs and walking him then when he said “I’m tired” Franseco says you need walking shoes. Girl you so shady. I adore it. He was even shady at breakfast getting a healthy meal and Noel got all that bacon

[@jeffies2821]

How do you not see that the destination is the vacation. Not some stupid ship. Get off the ship and explore your destination

[@neverwhereunseen6293]

How do you not see that this is his vacation, not yours? If he wants to stay on the "stupid ship," so be it. Go on your own vacation, and upload it to KZbin so we can comment and tell you HOW to enjoy your vacation!

[@jeffies2821]

@@neverwhereunseen6293 actually that is a good response and I guess I agree

How about you enjoy your vacation the way you want and let him enjoy his the way he wants. Jeez dude!!!!

[@robertalbano2025]

Francesco: I just watched your recent vlog, regarding your life changes. I too suspected that as I said before your eyes during your recent vlogs gave it away. Along with the 🛳️cruise you remained behind while coco his bf and John went on excursion alone. More recently when you were chilling with a drink, 🥂alone and appeared to be daydreaming your 👁️👁️say it all. I believe I speak for many you will never be alone and only if you want to be. You are a celebrity to us, whether you think so or not. When you grieved Gio I and others grieved with you. You are someone very special to me and others who do live vicariously through you and your travels and vlogs. Rather think of yourself so much preferred than the Vanderpump fakes and all those reality fakes. Try not to underestimate yourself and how we and I always look forward to seeing you in your vlogs. Take time to reflect and reorganize your life. Although you appear very family oriented and appreciative of whoever is in your life give yourself some time before you consider other options. So many of us would love to have you and the excitement and energy you bring to anyone in your life. I was in a 26 year relationship which ended, not because of infidelity but because we were so focused on our work, schedules we found ourselves passing one another in the corridors of our house and sadly fell out of love! Falling out of love is the only non-negotiable thing which cannot be repaired. Most anything else can be repaired. Since, I’ve been in shallow mini relationships always being the provider, the lover the organizer of romantic times, dates, times, birthdays etc are always significant to me but in my experience it appeared only I cared & shared my love and caring. If I get the AA job in Orlando hopefully I will see you to finally meet my celebrity idol. Thank you and John for letting us peek into your lives. Robert
