life in Milan (what influencers don't show you) 🇮🇹 Milano

[@irene_italian]

What are your impressions on Milan after this video? Let me know here 👇 And remember: 🇮🇹 Take an Italian course with me here: bit.ly/3PXEgWj Love you

[@victorlui5955]

Looks like fun. 😊

[@molkaamira4472]

Went to Napoli

[@emadabualzolf9894]

Going for a few months to S. France after summer and planning to visit border Italian cities as SanRemo, Genoa..etc. and perhaps visit Milan for clothes shopping . I found Italian language is hard, but would love to learn it .

[@stevethomasmanagementinc.4861]

I have stayed in Milano many times for business in the suburbs along Via Palmanova, near Parco Lambro. There, the prices of restaurant food are not expensive.

[@Anonymous_Prole]

I prefer Naples. Much more atmospheric.

[@tatywork9126]

i moved to Milan from NY 10 years ago, i regretted my decision during covid, but now i am enjoying it even more. Milan is strategically well positioned, you can reach the beach or the mountains in a couple of hours, lakes are also an easy option. It is well connected with the rest of europe as well. Its an expensive city but not nearly as expensive as any american metropolis. it has great public transportation and all kind of car bike and scooter sharing services. overall i think its very livable but its not your usual italian town by the sea dream situation.

[@irene_italian]

I think it’s the perfect compromise 😊

[@basakmutlu1812]

Thank you for this express description 🤗. While living in Milan do you need speak Italian daily? Can a person speaking English live comfortably in Milan?

[@tic-tacdrin-drinn1505]

Nobody can live comfortably anywhere in Italy without speaking Italian@@basakmutlu1812

[@brettk9316]

I'd recommend learning language for country you move to anyways. I know Poland and Germany you would be fine with just English unless talking to elderly people.

[@tatywork9126]

@@basakmutlu1812 i speak italian, it depends what your life is like when you are in Milan. if you move there because of tax advantages it means that you are a wealthy person and can pay to arrange all your bureaucratic stuff. you will find people who will gladly communicate in english, but its not everywhere in Italy. Milan is a great place form where you can also reach many interesting places in europe, from London to Cote d'azur which is just over 3 hours drive from there.

[@southtexasprepper6605]

Thank you for this inside look at Milan, I've always wondered what these cities looked like and you have given me so many beautiful looks at everyday Italy.

[@kris4897]

1:32 in my opinion pizza al taglio is expensive almost everywhere in italy, milano, roma, etc etc.. maybe in the south, like your region, calabria, it's not that so expensive.

[@andrewdiprose]

unfortunately tis true it has become expensive didn't used to be but in Lazio region and further north it is (due to the increase in the cost of flour and other ingredients)

[@RonynLoneWolf]

[@gardnep]

My son landed in Milan yesterday, thanks to Irene, I can see what he sees.

[@Kepps-ff3rg]

Another point to add according to me is the vicinity of Milan to the italian lake district. With the train you can be in Lake Como or Lake Maggiore in an hour and they can be a beautiful addition to a Milan tour that lasts 3+ days. If you have a car on Lake Maggiore you should go to Stresa and than make a tour of the 3 Islands, while on Lake Como, Bellagio could be a good place to start.

[@popicelolly]

Thanks for sharing. I loved your vlogs especially the one with your parents. Hi from Malaysia.

[@amritachatterji3611]

wow, finally a video that shows real Italy beyond stereotypes.

[@einposter]

THX for this interesting video, Irene, and clarifying some topics of Milan and the North in general. Especially the lots of (job) chances etc for young people. However, as a German, I am a bit shy with cities like Milan or Torino - they resemble (in my humble opinion) too much of German tidyness and accuracy; it's not that lifestyle I know and love from Umbria or Tuscany (especially in the small Borghi there).🥰 Looking forward for your videos on Calabria - after loads of vacations in the above-mentioned Italian regions we plan to visit "the South" in the future - I hope to get some inspriration from your upcoming videos. Tanti auguri dalla Germania J.

great video milan is upper class . i remember spending alot of money. but is was worth it

[@deborahalviso9408]

Thank you so much "Irene", for such a wonderful and fasinating video of Milan!! I can relax in my recliner chair at home and feel like I'm there with you, as you show me all the sights_ of Milan or other cities_ in Italy! What a great, you are a wonderful tour (or tourist) guide!🤩👍

I meant to say, "what a great treat!" (video)😊

[@irene_italian]

❤️❤️

[@caregiverinitaly]

There are restaurants that do offer "menu fisso", usually at lunch. A set menu for a lower price. For example can find a restaurant serving first and second course, water for €18. If you have access to a car, get out of the city and check out an agriturismo. The prices are lower compared to Milan, you eat just as well and more for the same (maybe even less) compared to IN Milan. Before COVID we enjoyed going on Sundays to Piedmont to an agriturismo, spending €35 a person. Lunch would start at about 12:30 and ending about 5pm. Is there really the need to mention McDonald's?!?! Why eat at McDonald's in Italy?!? I'm originally from the States, but have been here for 21 years. I don't remember the last time I went to McDonald's nor do I crave anything from there. When in Rome, do as the Romans.

[@irene_italian]

Young Italians enjoy McDonald’s🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

[@wernerdanler2742]

I have not eaten at a McDonald's in 40 or 50 years and then only a few times. The worst food on the planet. Yuk! 😮

[@caregiverinitaly]

@@wernerdanler2742 It's like eating cardboard. Tasteless and unsatisfying. I admit I USED TO go to McDonald's quite frequently. Then I moved to Italy...

[@praesentius]

@@irene_italian I live in Lucca and I can tell you... the young LOVE going to McDonalds. It's packed on Friday/Saturday night. They have birthdays there. It's wild! It was the same when I lived in Ferrara. That being said, I think folks (including in these comments) are really hard on McDonalds. It's not great. But it's not *bad*. It's just bad *for* you with everything fried and salted so heavily. I tell you what, though. Sometimes, living in Italy, you just want something different. Be it something more green than pasta. Or something like a burger. Continua a fare ottimi video! Il tuo stile ti distingue!

I try to visit all Starbucks Roasteries, so I visited Milan. After some time, I need some greenery, so I moved to Como. I think Como is great too.

[@brianfilkowski]

Excellent video. I like The Monferrato area southwest of Milan. Also Asti and Barbaresco in Piemonte. I want to explore Emilia Romagna especially Parma, Modena and Bologna. Of course then Abruzzo and Molise on my way south to Calabria. Once I move to Umbria I will have so many options. Snow in Umbria! Then time for a train to Sicily. I would like to see how Turin differs from Milan. Turin I think would be more like Denver here in Colorado USA.

[@vikingz2000]

My recollection of having lived all over the place in Italy for almost three years back in the late sixties was a "mixed bag" of what I liked or didn't like. Every city I lived in north and south was different, but to be sure, the closer a smaller city was to the countryside was better and especially in the more southern parts.

[@andrewdiprose]

well put... Milan is good for accessing the rest of Europe.

[@semprefidelis76]

Salve! Just discovered and subbed to your channel! Describes Italy exactly how I like! Sono della Turchia, vivo in Stati Uniti. Io parl l`Italiano pocissimo. It is not possible to practise in Los Angeles, and most people speak Spanish here. I went to Italy maybe 6-7 times, but unfortunately only to Milano, Tuscany, Firenze etc. Didn`t go anywhere under Rome :) One time I was sitting in a hotel`s restaurant close to Massa-Carrara area. A couple came for breakfast to hotel. I thought they were not Italian, because they looked very different. The couple had much darker looks (darker skin hair etc) and shorter and..overweight! But the couple communicated with server, like how normal Italian would speak! I became very curious. Because, as we say in English, the couple was "sticking out like a sore thumb" just by their looks. The man looked like my uncle lol. I asked server if they are Italian or maybe which part. Server asked them actually, and then told me that they are visiting from Calabria. The couple didn`t speak any English, and asked server if I ever been to Calabria. I said no and smiled. They said, I should, it is beautiful there. I just sensed that they were closer to my culture! I think people in Italy are very diverse from one location to another. You are beautiful, very nice channel! I hope to visit Calabria and Sicily one day and eat that croissant with pistacchio cream? Oh man it was so good! :)) Greetings from L.A

[@kennethwdc]

@@irene_italian Molte volte quando gli Italiani parlano inglese l'accento e' distraente. Ma il tuo caso è unico. Tu rendi l'inglese migliore e piacevole. Penso che ci sia l'opportunità per te di fare la pubblicità come artista della voce fuori campo. Per esempio, tanti ristoranti Italo-americano hanno bisogno di una voce come la tua, con un vero e gradevole accento italiano, per descrivere i piatti in spot pubblicitari e non solo. Non devi limitarti al settore alimentari.

As a tourist destignation Milano is worth 1 day trip only.Due to location and being a transport hub is a good starting point if you wish to see Northern Italy or even travel south to Rome and further .As for myself it cannot compete with any other Italian cities in particular my beloved Napoli .Rome is always in different league of its own.

[@tic-tacdrin-drinn1505]

Naples is certainly a fantastic city with lots of beauty and character, the sea, Mount Vesuvius and Pompeii. But let's try an experiment: look at a video of the Galleria Umberto in Naples, it is a copy of the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele in Milan. They are very similar in architecture, but exude a completely different atmosphere. You can watch another video about the “Centro Direzionale” in Naples and one about the Centro Direzionale in Milan. Which would you prefer? I'm not denigrating Naples in comparison to Milan, each city has its advantages. The point is that Italy cannot be viewed as Disneyland: a country is a living entity for its residents. In the past, Milanese did not think that their city would be a tourist destination, but according to a study by Mastercard (June 2023), it has become one of the most visited cities, third in Europe.

Forse è meglio che lei si dedichi ai video localizzati al Sud, che trovo molto interessanti e particolari. Mi perdoni ma questo su Milano lo trovo banale e noioso, limitato al solo cibo e aperitivi e altre ovvietà tipo immigrazione dal Sud o confronti con la navigazione a Venezia. Milano è ben altro che questo breve video, nel bene e nel male.

Why do so many Italians dislike Milan?

[@CAR-qb3di]

You know my Daughter didn’t like Milan , but she love the rest of the Country , She said Milan is like NY. More fashion

[@irene_italian]

Because it’s very different from the rest. You can love or hate it, no middle way

[@Kepps-ff3rg]

Because it's rich and popular, full of millionaires and old money people, also more modern looking than the rest of Italy. That tends to creat a lot of jealousy and contrast

[@caregiverinitaly]

@@CAR-qb3di Consider Milan is the fashion/financial capital of the country.

[@caregiverinitaly]

My Italian husband (born and raised in the area of Milan), can't stand the chaos in general, the traffic, the provincial mentality. Also the keeping up with the Joneses way of thinking. I'm from the States and agree with my husband, plus the smog, too many people in such a small area. We have a quieter life outside of Milan, near one fo the Milanese airports. I go to Milan only to renew my US passport.
