SUSHI, PASTA & HALLOWEEN IN THE CEMETERY!-The Positano Diaries - EP 60

[@jennwoodard8365]

I love the genuine care Carlo gives to those he loves and truly takes pride in whatever he does. You deserve that type of special love that just ever existed anymore.

[@oilenglai4128]

Hi Nicki, my opinion is " go publish your book immediately " you have great flair with English and Italian and your vlogs are so beautiful, attractive, chic , elegant and well narrated...... you colour the mundane and attend the simplest....GO GIRL 🏁🎈

[@mariannesouza8326]

“You color the mundane and attend the simplest.” Wow that’s beautiful; you, also, have quite a way with words! I think your description would be the perfect first review, on the back of the book jacket.

[@oilenglai4128]

@@mariannesouza8326 why!! Thank you kindly..... It is Nicki... She shares her Positano so generously and beautifully!!!

[@sandrapeterson2589]

That is the most beautiful cemetery I have ever seen! A credit to Carlo and his team xx

[@limeykl]

What a lovely cemetery! Well kept and so close to the community..still part of the living:)

[@chrisholzhauer3698]

It is easy for people to see such a beautiful place and say "I could do that." Not everyone realizes how much hard work it takes to upkeep all that! You both work hard for the life you love!

[@IVant2BAlone]

That is exactly what I was thinking. It's beautiful, but comes at a price that not everyone would be willing to pay. Definitley not a life of leisure.

[@jennyoshea1958]

Carlo's impassioned Nooo at your desecration of his fine straight line lol 😂

[@lindabradley1054]

Carlo takes such good care of your land - it's beautiful!

[@wendyrobertson9359]

Absolutely loved hearing of the ancient traditions ....the cemetery looks magical in the evening and so beautiful in the daylight .....so respectful and peaceful it is ....just love your videos Nikki xx

[@always.wondering.wandering]

I think those who have passed will love how much care has been put into the cemetery of where they were buried and all their family members can share in it as well. A lovely place to come and reflect on the people who were in their lives. I hope you find some good readers for your novel. And, if even you decide not to go through with publishing it, just the satisfaction of having something written down what was in you mind and soul I'm sure was very gratifying. Skye looks like she has a keen eye with the camera, hope she got some good shots that she liked. Have a good week Positano family.

[@nspr8cio]

Loved this video. My birthday is on All Souls' Day (or Día de los Muertos) and since my son has passed recently this day has even more meaning for me. Carlo, the cemetery looks amazing and the lights are beautiful. Thank you.

[@Trillion0323]

Can you please consider doing a video on the cost of living in Positano? Buying, renting, utilities, food prices, where you shop for clothes, household good and prices etc. How it all works would be such an interesting video. Thank You. Love your content!!

[@susanwoodward7485]

Another beautifully filmed, fascinating peek into Positano life. I particularly love the music you chose for the first part of the vlog! The hibiscus and datura plants were gorgeous - never get tired of seeing what you grow and when it flowers, fruits and ripens. Can't wait for the olive harvest and oil pressing. Thank you so much.

[@minisahni884]

I had never imagined the cemetery was so pretty and with all the lights done up it was looking so beautiful. It was lovely watching your sweet daily life...going about doing your simple house chores....baking yummy looking pasta.You know when a vlog like this ends ..I'm like...AWwwwwww!!!! Why did it have to get over...😊👍🤗...we are all eagerly waiting for your book...💖

[@NickiPositano]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@josephlia4470]

l always watch your vidios cant wait to sèe more tks from malta

@@NickiPositano I cimiteri ed i morti, IN ITALIA, sono cose serie! I cimiteri NON sono luoghi per picnic o demenziali feste americanoidi come halloween. Dovresti vergognarti di profanare in tal modo i morti! In quel cimitero riposano i miei genitori. O tu togli SUBITO il video ( o almeno le parti che inquadrano il cimitero) o io denuncio te e il tuo compagno Carlo ( custode del cimitero). vergognati.

[@eeebee7420]

Carlos it was so beautiful what you did with the installation of lights in the graveyard. I can imagine that usually many people would be at the graves on All Souls Day on a non-pandemic year.

[@almahudson3892]

The cemetery part of this video reminded me of going to visit my grandfather when i was very little, to clean the marble, place flowers, visit other family members and have a picnic. Beautiful. Thank you.

[@johncarroll4826]

I am professor emeritus at a Canadian university. I have been teaching writing for years. I am also a novelist and poet. I would be happy to read your manuscript and give you positive, constructive feedback!

[@MrKatieh]

Every Sunday, with my husband, watch Wednesday's and Sunday's episodes. My husband wanted to make a surprise trip to Positano in June, but it got cancelled due to the virus. Thanks to your films I know which caffes and shops I would like to visit - my favourite is the one with the porcelain 😊😉 hope we will visit next year, at least you can enjoy the weather, it's been raining in London 😕 for a few weeks now. I would be happy to read your writing 😊

[@Haupialani]

That cemetery is so beautiful and well maintained, I've never seen an Italian cemetery.

[@mrinmoyeee5979]

I’m so glad that I found you on KZbin , your videos are so beautiful and soothing . 🧡

[@frannieb5203]

Incredible. I feel so honored to see the cemetery and the lights.

[@Sandy-zr5hs]

I felt quite emotional looking at the cemetery, it is absolutely beautifully kept by Carlo and team and such a special place for your loved one to rest 🌟 ...fantastic vlog Nicki, you are such a lovely family 💕

[@Shaikah420]

Love everything you guys do at house, all the gardening, washing, cleaning, cooking & going home or doing things outside home

[@annettewalter2273]

The cemetery looked so clean and pretty.

[@mariannesouza8326]

Some might say that you and Carlo have the better view. Ocean, sky, trees, garden and not another house in sight. Beautiful!

[@utahershey4053]

I would love to test read your book. I use to work at Harper’s BAZAAR in NY. As part of my job I wrote and I also proofed. Would love to read.

[@utahershey4053]

No. Is it out and available?

[@beeb5012]

Another excellent video. Love watching these. The cemetry is a sight to behold, how beautiful it is.

[@ThePricipleOfParsimony]

Nicki your videos are like meditation. What a beautiful way to begin the day. I've been under such stress the last while and I literally find myself exhaling half way through your videos. Thank you so much. Do you think you can do one daily? lol Kidding. Also, that model looked a little like a dark haired version of Sky...both so pretty!

[@tracyc1630]

Just watched this video, i love the traditions that you share with us, being Christian myself, you show me how my faith is celebrated in italy, and i love it. Thank you, Nicki❤

[@phyllisbrowning9273]

Beautiful, thank you for sharing this tradition. Carlo and crew did a wonderful job with the lights. We love to visit the beautiful, well tended cemeteries when we are traveling in Europe. Good job with the pictures and videos Nikki.

[@Maldives2025]

that cemetery is so tranquil and well decorated

[@Smartgran]

That was so moving. Thank you so much for that insight into a beautiful and respectful tradition. X

[@jacquelinearcher1158]

What a delightful video...☕️☕️ love the All Souls’ Day explanation and All Souls cakes.. far nice than the commercialisation of Halloween 🎃 which we have now..All Souls a time to reflect and remember. I remember a early 70s fashion for freckles ..we would paint brown eyeliner in dots and then blot .away it leaves a shadow of colour..it works very well .. Carlo keeps the cemetery so neat and tidy ..but loved how he wanted a straight line on your garden plants...and keep the leaves off the lawn...he’s right they kill the grass.

[@pomme800]

The cabbage and kale are doing so well! What a difference from the small plants we saw going into the soil a short while ago. A glorious winter garden🌿🥦🥬...and seeing you on the shoot brought back many memories...I used to be a stylist and it's so true that you have to be inventive with what you've got on hand...light and time is so precious on photo shoots. Loved the vlog, les beaux paysages, the beautiful cemetery, the baking ...it's as if I can always smell the air from here ! Love to you all....

[@ajalynn6066]

Nicki, you write so amazingly well, your words flow easily and with interest. I would definitely purchase your book!

[@su-anemerald]

Found the last scene in the cemetery very moving . Was quite surprised, as normally , I wouldn’t actually. The music was very sympathetic and I love how respectful it is and how beautiful the cemetery looks lit up and the care taken to keep it in such a way . The flowers are gorgeous too. ❤️

[@tiagorman1553]

Your cemetery is gorgeous and quite a testament to Carlo and his crew who maintain it. Kudos for you for not only making the pasta but carrying it up all of those steps. 😊

[@kit2130]

Oooh the bells ringing with the view was breathtaking! I also loved the lovely music around 7:45, so relaxing & sweet. I have an idea about the leaves! A broom will work instead of a leaf blower if you don’t like the noise. It works best when they’re dry! Another idea about your book is to maybe make a 2nd KZbin channel with a link. Read 1 chapter or so each video while sitting or walking where it pertains to. You’ll get a larger variety of feedback from the comments! I would love to read it but I’m not much into history so that might hinder my evaluation! If it’s anything like your videos, the tourism board needs to hire you! 😃

[@virginiafeliciano9318]

What a beautiful tradition in honoring the loved ones that have entered into their new life. The love and dedication to preparing the cemetery we so touching. Wonderful Carlo! The hedging of the bushes had me in stitches! Great news that Sky tested negative and I love her photography. The apple doesn't fall to far from the tree ❤️. I am sure that you have received 1000 replies volunteering to read your book and I'll be 1001. I love to read and visited Positano for a very short afternoon in 2018 so didn't see much other than the beach and shops. Most of what I have experienced has been through your lenses. Stay safe and God bless🙏🏻💞

[@carolinetucker8954]

Thank you for sharing the footage of the cemetery, it’s such a beautiful looking place.

[@karenv525]

Here it is 3 years later and I'm watching this for the first time and I just want to say I read your book and enjoyed it very much. Kudos to you for having the courage to move forward and publish it and fulfill your dream.

[@margal3120]

Best last words of any video 🥰 plus the lighting of the cemetery is absolutely beautiful and the cross cookies you baked are endearing to the traditions 🥰 love this one!! Thank you

[@janetlombardi2314]

What a lovely video Nicki your videos have to be the best i have seen on youtube so natural and inspiring. How wonderful to see a cemetery in such good order so much respect for the dead. Many years ago I visited a family member's grave in Naples at that time I thought how lovely to see how the cemetery was well looked after. Looking forward to the next video and thank you to all for sharing

[@anna-mariaathanasiou4645]

Hi Nicki! I'd be happy to read your book. I'm a published author myself and totally understand the need for feedback, even after 6 novels! I'm a fast reader and will be honest with my comments. I read everything from classics to chick lit, biographies to non fiction. I faced a similar problem on my first novel, where I couldn't find enough readers but thankfully it didn't deter me. Happy to help a fellow author.

[@watcher223]

Another great video on my Sunday! From the freckles, to the pasta, to Skye’s video on the beach to the traditions at the cemetery.

[@phillipleboa5251]

BEAUTIFUL VIDEO AND CAMERA WORK !!!!! LOVE IT !!!! Thank you so much !!!!!!!

[@neusaniemann7462]

Positano is such a magical place! I do like to learn about the Positano way of life and it’s traditions. Thank you for sharing.

[@PaulHorneLA]

The hedge cutting really made me laugh. Carlo is a freakin dream. ❤️

[@semikaren]

Loved watching this. The beautiful grave site lit up at night, so peaceful. Writing a book is such a personal journey and investment of love and labour. I do think it is so helpful for others to read and critique the words you have crafted, not so much to be critical of what you have written, but rather to enhance and improve on content, style, language etc. Many years ago, I undertook an English with Related Arts degree, which included creative writing. I found it really difficult to write actually, as my thoughts never really flowed or transferred so well from my mind to the written word on paper. For all on the course, weekly workshops were the dread for many of us......handing over our precious work for others to read , comment and critique. In my humble opinion, work shopping really proved very helpful, and enabled me to see things from a different perspective ....a valuable creative tool to embrace and not to fear. Well done for completing your book 😊

[@jgrady9553]

So much to enjoy in this video! The cemetery looked beautiful, lights for the souls and remembrance. I would love to visit during all saints and all souls.

[@willothewispl]

What a warm and lovely cemetery. Looks lovely all lit up.

[@normasolomon1189]

Thank you for sharing this video - I love your day to day stuff - and loved learning about this tradition ❤️

[@vivianrivera-franco3851]

Loved every segment of your video. Thanks for sharing. 💘

Sunday evenings are my favourite time of weekend with your uploads thankyou❤❤❤

[@relaxedrelaxed]

Best Mornings are waking up to a new video of yours! Very grateful for you and the joy you share! 💖

[@orion8835]

7:03 explains so much of WHY you stay there with all of its arduous trekking up and down to get in and out etc. Fun to see the shoot and you at work. Fascinating about the freckles being requested. The cemetery and All-Souls cakes etc were interesting to see.

[@michaelmccauley8085]

Nicki, your videos provide us much joy and happiness. Hopefully we may be able to visit your beautiful city next year. You are truly blessed

[@berthasanchez6559]

Maybe I sound redundant but every video you make is so beautiful amazing with your voice and the background music are so in tune with the scenery and the theme of your video never seen such a beautiful cemetery and with that panoramic view it just blows my mind, you and your family are so lucky to live in such special place take care Nicki❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@aleta5873]

Excellent . I smile and always am in awe at the beauty and traditions. Thank you Nicki.

[@lupecitaproductions9698]

We all love you and know that your book will be filled with heartfelt love for Positano and for your life and family. I can’t wait to read and experience the beauty and poetry that is seen through your eyes that we have all come to know.

[@wendyramirez529]

Carlo really made the hedge trimming look so easy. It was hilarious when you went crooked. 😂 The dresses the model wore were all lovely. The cemetery looked lovely. We also celebrate All Souls and All Saints but not in such a grand manner. Families go and light candles on the graves of their relatives. The Sushi looked awesome. Haven’t had since Covid started. Thanks for today’s video. ✌🏽Have a great week Nicki.

[@paivitiitta1884]

Soul cakes, what a nice thought and I loved the celtic music! We in Finland go to visit the cemetry and light candles , I'll try the recipe for soul cakes , loved so much this custom !

[@valleyiris2254]

Great storytelling. No doubt your book is just as interesting! ❤️

[@shannonspencer9860]

What a beautiful tradition!

[@lucychristie115]

I just played the videos for my mom. She like them very much. I’ll read your book I have all the time in the world.

Am so pleased that I 'stumbled' across your channel Nicki, it's WONDERFUL ... a little tantalising taste of life in Italy ... you LUCKY thing. PLEASE keep posting. Love from (another) Niki x x x

[@feranmer]

This is my favourite type of your videos, just watching the simple yet intriguing moments of your everyday life. Congrats on finishing the book by the way. Whether you publish or not, not many can say they've written a book!

[@mariarocco1706]

Hi Nicki, beautiful video. The garden looks great, the vegetables are thriving, the warm climate there makes winter vegetables grow nice.

[@roshanrk5734]

The evening scene was beautiful .

[@lwest5686]

Happy All Saints Day! Thank you Nicki, it is always a pleasure spending time with you. I know you're talking to a camera but you are always genuine and I feel you talking to me as I'm sure, we in your audience, all do. It would be wonderful to see the olive harvest. I wonder if Positsno olive oil is sold internationally. I would definitely buy some.

[@Toodle.Pipp001]

Wow, the cemetery looks amazing, so beautiful all lit up. Look forward to seeing the olive oil made. Hope Skye can get back to school ok, another lockdown here in the UK. All the best with your novel! 💖

[@JohnJones-cp4wh]

She`ll most likely get into England, but getting back to Italy for Xmas may be impossible.

[@kathleensabourin556]

Those lights in the cemetery look very nice, well done!

[@mllenathalie]

Nicki I absolutely love these videos! Thank you for making them. I have binged all of your quarantine videos and am now caught up on your more recent videos. It is such a joy to see the simple pleasures of life like gardening and hiking and cooking. My boyfriend and I planned to visit Positano (and other places in Italy) in September to celebrate receiving his PhD after 6 years of research. Of course, the pandemic messed that up but I hope to visit next year!!

This was food for the soul.- just what was needed for this angst filled chapter of politics and pandemic. Thank you for this lovely video.

[@debbiephillips1123]

I so enjoy your videos! I lived in Aviano AFB in northern Italy in the late '70s and just fell in love! How I longed to go back but life happened so I am so delighted that I found your channel and can reminisce thru you and your beautiful family! You really are so fun and interesting to watch!

[@dianalewis8548]

Now my day is complete. Always positive vibe and so good to see Skye and Nicola and that yummy sushi. The cemetery is so lovely with the lights. Similar to Day of the Dead in Mexico. Good luck with the olives and making oil. The gardens look great too. Winter bounty. Now you need a publisher for your book. Can't wait to read this. Stay safe and happy November. ❤

Dear Nicki, I was a reader for a Publisher when I was at Uni years ago here in Australia. I am now retired and an avid reader so i would be happy and honoured to read your book for you. I am not very IT minded so don't know all the tricks of cutting and pasting etc. but I'll do my best for you. Fran Booth Adelaide South Australia PS I have travelled extensively all over the world but have not been to the Amalfi coast. I've been to Rome and to Venice many times.

[@monasingh11]

With all the walking up and down those stairs, it’s definitely keeping all you guys fit 😍

Loved this - what a lovely thing to do at the cemetary!

Absolutely, I love reading. Yes I'll test. I know it is hard to hear critique but Nicki. It will help your writing. It will be OK.

[@svamandolin3546]

if your writing is like your vids, you are good. Genuine, honest, elegant and very soothing and entertaining. Thank you for posting these. I am a subscriber and will buy your cookbook later today. Made the Orange Fennel salad and was excellent.
