POSITANO: THE QUARANTINE DIARIES - EP 12 - The Story of Holly & Capri Dreaming

[@dawnstan4391]

Love that Holly chose you. It makes me smile when your cat goes on a walk with you and Holly.

[@deeshan9844]

I love how Holly always looks like she is happy and smiling. She's adorable.

[@Zarih67]

This is the best episode ever. As a dog owner this warms my heart. Holly clearly loves you and she is cute as a button. They have the ability to take up a lot of space in our hearts, don’t they? Could not imagine a life without mine. She chose you.

[@NickiPositano]

She chose us and we can't imagine life without her!

[@single101able]

Holly is the best thing happened to your family. I think she loves you the most but Don’t tell Carlos or Sky lol💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

[@soniadandrea8374]

Thank you for sharing. Brought tears to my eyes. She did indeed choose her family. Dogs are blessings ❤️

[@gia4ceo600]

OMG the Holy story brought tears to my eyes! Wonderful people! God bless you!❤

[@sherreepeterson3496]

Holly ❤️🥰 Has just love how she goes on all of your adventures with you, she is really a special girl.

[@patricialevi3190]

Aaawww Carlos has the most beautiful, warm, welcoming, happy smile, doesn’t he? Not to mention all his wonderful talents.

[@teresalove9413]

Holly is such a wonderful little girl and she picked you both to love her. I truly enjoyed this video may god bless your lovely family

[@candledancer2]

Loved this video and the story of Holly. I can't get over how the cat likes to walk with you and Holly! I'll have to check out the website.

[@janegendreau6595]

Great video, Nicki, very creative & such a nice thing to do for your friends in Capri!! I'm watching your old videos from long ago that I haven't seen & really enjoying them. Holly is such a sweet little dear!!🇺🇸

[@roseannef1755]

I LOVE hearing the story of how you found and kept Holly !! Thank you so much for taking such good care of her ! She is so beautiful, and I LOVE her so much !!!!

[@dianaelizabethbashford3797]

Oh Nicki I absolutely loved this vlog, it really cheered me up so thank you. I love Holly as her antics and personality reminds me of our cavalier king Charles Tilly who we lost nearly 5 years ago. The dream sequence made me giggle. So pleased that you are all safe and your home is absolutely beautiful. x

[@NickiPositano]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@dianaelizabethbashford3797]

@@NickiPositano I love the Amalfi coast. I went on holiday to Vico Equemse many years ago when I was in my mid teens with my late Mother and Father. They had stayed on the Amalfi coast for their honeymoon. I am sure I left part me there as I love Italy but especially that part. x

[@victoriawalters7107]

I love the story of Holly. She is a very happy fur baby.

[@mxp4122]

I'm honestly crying after listening to the Holly story. It's too cute!

[@Maccablondie]

Holly Dog is a Superstar 🤩, I’m so glad she found you! She clearly adores you and your family... it was meant to be! 🥰. My husband & I have been to Capri and we spent our 11th anniversary dining at Ristorante Michelangelo. We had a delicious meal and were spoilt by Holly & Gianluca with a lovely dessert! Great memories... can’t wait to return.

[@NickiPositano]

Wonderful!

[@sandicarpenter2658]

You are just lovely Nicki....every story about Holly has a little extra.....she is so clever the way she rides the bike AND the Kayak!!!

[@starsrhi2335]

Hello From Texas - I've been doing a binge of your videos, each one so different. I really enjoyed this one, a bit different from the others with the story telling. Hugs to you, family, and sweet Holly.....God bless you all there - be safe.

[@nicolaoffert4006]

Ooh I feel sleepy now ! Loved your 'dream' visit to Capri and the storey of Olly 😉😘

[@jadesmith574]

Bought my 6 pack of Pomodorini today! Thank you for the heads up on Michel’Angelo deliveries to U.S. 🍅🍅❤️👏🇮🇹

[@NickiPositano]

Wonderful!

[@LeeThrough]

Their olive oil is really terrific too! I bought some in the Fall and brought it home with me but will order it for delivery.

[@kimmurphy6864]

I am going to their website now 😃

[@daved7024]

Dear Nicki, Add storytelling to your list of talents...you are amazing at it and you know how to captivate an audience. We cannot get enough of Holly, so thank you for telling her story again. Carlo, Skye, your two cats, and chickens are fantastic as well. David and I love the fragrance of orange blossoms, too. We do not tire of your videos. Love, Bonnie and David from East Coast USA

[@snippetsofvictoria]

"Paddle faster slave" heehee! Ah, it's so wonderful to be chosen by an animal. Holly is the sweetest and happiest pup I've ever seen, I just love her.

[@NickiPositano]

Hi, I'm Carlo, thank you!

[@snippetsofvictoria]

@@NickiPositano Hi Carlo! Thank you to you and Nicki and Skye for sharing your beautiful Italy with us!

[@mariagaleas7227]

I loved this video! Nicki; you really are a very talented History teller. I enjoy each one of your KZbin videos. I haven't stopped seen them since I found your channel. Congratulations!🥰

[@danyelmarie2864]

I am not an animal lover but I really enjoy watching Holly. She is just so sweet- I love that she goes on all the adventures with you and up and down all those stairs.

[@VietQuanT]

I’m in love with Holly, your garden, the chickens, but mostly Holly❤️

[@pennysue8926]

This video made my heart hurt... the solitude is haunting... so thankful we are currently moving forward in a positive direction towards our new "normal"... 😔

[@anthonytarangelo5252]

It's a good to have trust worthy friends and you take care of each other. The story how you got Holly is real sweet hence s dog is man's best friend

[@leerobins749]

Another great video..Kitty and Holly are adorable..original..

[@judefrazier4727]

That was so delightful. Loved the video, The Dream Capri❤

[@barbarawillis5187]

Enjoyed the Capri dream tour. Hopefully, Italy will get back to normal soon. Holly is so lucky she followed Carlo to your home. Enjoyed the entire video. Best wishes to you and your family. 💕

[@sarahogawa5408]

The dream sequence at the end is so creative. Love your channel!

[@carmenb1006]

Hello beautiful family!! Love the story about Holly, she’s so precious ❤️. Glad to see everyone doing well. The flowers 💐 and the views omg gorgeous! Thanks again for sharing this wonderful video with us. 🤗🤗🤗

[@klwiedenhoeft]

Great video! So enjoyable to watch - all of the elements were just perfect (aesthetics, pace, variety, sounds, information, etc.) The pear/goat cheese/nuts/honey ending was perfect! Your videos are good for my blood pressure. :)

[@cathryneallen9257]

Very creative! I hope your friend’s restaurant survived 2020. I loved the story of Holly and how she goes ahead of you when you’re out and then stops and waits for you. She is adorable!

[@lynnpaulo4594]

Holly is just the sweetest. She always smile towards the camera. I love her.

[@kimjriley5463]

Love the story of Holly. You can tell how much she loves you and Carlo. And you love her. Love animals. Her choosing you is the best.

[@rosaliascalici7296]

Love the holy story so sweet , it’s so Sad to see Positano so empty, I’ve been there 4 times already , I was recently there in September last year, I was looking to see if I would see you n Holy , I love Positano my Favorite, I plan on coming again next year God willing to celebrate my 60th Birthday 🎂

[@dianeb3919]

Hello Nicki and Carlo and Skye! Great video! You are getting so profesh! It's like a Hollywood production :D Sweet story about how you got Holly...luckiest day of her life when she went home with Carlo ❤️👍 Love spending time with you guys👍

[@karenknapp9356]

Holly is such a sweetie and I enjoyed hearing how she came into your lives. Loved your creative Capri dream insert, well done to Skye as well! I hope your friends business will be able to reopen successfully sometime soon. I would make a purchase if I didn’t live across the other side of the world. We need to support our local businesses more than ever.

[@oneeyeopen5044]

Hello Nikki, what a wonderful video. You definitely have a unique talent. And a exceptional imagination. I love the conversation between yourself and your daughter. That would be really lovely to see more often. Reminiscent of things you'll have done when she was a child to her age now. Such a beautiful memories to look back on

[@lilagibson1918]

Love this Video Nicki! The dream sequence was great. I’ve been to Capri once in 2005 and fell in love with it ! I will be sure to visit your friends restaurant when I go again. I love Holly she is so cute! I love when her and kitty wait for you on the stairs. My dog Ruby a Pomeranian was brought in to the local shelter as a stray she was missing a lot of fur and was in bad shape. Now she’s the fluffiest puppy ever! My 16 year old son is similar to Skye very musically inclined. I think it’s been hard on the teenagers to not see their friends and teachers. Glad everyone is doing well. Sending you love from California❤️

[@TheEverton1959]

Ohhhh that was just gorgeous.... sat at home on a Sunday Morning with a cuppa...watching another fantastic vlog... pure escapism.....loving your hard work...

[@NickiPositano]

Thank you , yes, it took all day to put together!

[@supriyabarsode8039]

Loved the story about how Holly chose you,you are indeed blessed,love the way kitty and Holly go for a walk with you ,then wait at a bend patiently waiting for you❤️

[@winterose]

Great video! Support local businesses. Filming on point. Lol I like that you put the effort in setting up the camera for when you walk out of the store and walking in to places. It's been noticed. Thumbs up!

[@NickiPositano]

I appreciate it!

[@tinabenino7282]

Good morning from Australia Nikki! It's such a delight to see your videos with the fabulous backdrop of Positano! We were fortunate enough to spend the summer in Italy and Sicily where my family is from until mid September. As a result we are able to savour and cherish these recent, most precious memories while we are all required to remain in isolation from the rest of the world for now and for the well being and benefit of us all! I look forward to seeing your updates which always transport me back to our beloved Italy. I'm always left smiling after each episode and this installment was particularly charming and reveals your very caring and generous nature! Sending love and (virtual) hugs to you and your beautiful little family...Abbi cura cara Nikki! xo

[@NickiPositano]

thank you !

[@LeeThrough]

Loved the Capri segment; very sweet - and, to see it so deserted is distressing and wistful. I was there in October - and, last May - and the only times I could see and wander the heart of the village with very few people was when I took very early morning walks each day from Via Tragara. I have eaten often at your friends' restaurant, bought their olive oil and will put in an order for their Falanghina (that is a nice offer they have right now on products!) - I hope to back next late Spring and I hope all the businesses will survive and thrive once again. Thanks for such a treat - Capri has been a favorite of mine since I was 17 years old when I discovered just how special it is.

[@joywhitley3141]

Awwww, when the two of them are looking up at you from the lower steps. Precious! Thanks for telling us the story of Holly. She’s a very fortunate dog to have found you. Blessings.

[@marnienorris]

Just purchased your cookbook. I can’t wait to start cooking some healthy recipes. Thank you for sharing

[@leilanipatton2038]

Yes Holly is luck to have a beautiful family like you both.It make me smile every time I see her she is adorable dog.Thank you again for sharing your beautiful video.

[@aleta5873]

Good morning Nicki from Los Angeles. Thank you for Holly's history. Loved this video...

[@janepearson2450]

Every dog ,cat that I've ever been blessed with have all come into my life of their own accord. You 2 have certainly been blessed..love your story. God bless you all ,always

[@rickmontefusco63]

Loved hearing the story of how Holly (the dog) came into your lives. She is such a cute and sweet dog. Loved past vlogs where she would be riding with you on your scooter. She is definitely living her best dog life with your family! Cheers

[@karentozer1871]

What a lovely video, I loved hearing Hollies story. The Loquat tree is what we call a Nispero tree here in Spain, I’ve got a couple of them, along with yellow plum, apricot, red plum, olives and almonds, apple. Sadly lemon or orange trees don’t survive here as we are too high up and don’t have any sheltered area for them over winter xx

[@fionamcleod9800]

I am almost blubbing at your lovely little dreamy nap...these are strange times and it was nice to journey in your mind!!

[@claudiarusso6702]

I'm drinking my green tea with toast watching this and I'm delighted! It so wonderful to dream🤩and how Holly found her family is very touching. It shows that animals do feel and have instincts and Holly made her connection with Carlo and knew immediately that she would be loved and cared for and what a wonderful feeling to love back!!! A win win for everyone! Thank you for sharing Nicki. Your videos always bring warmth to me and gets me ready for the hectic day ahead!👍Now I get to dream of Positano today!❤️

[@kathymccormick9174]

You’re getting so good at this, Nicki. I only spent a day over at Capri (07/2012) with lunch at de Gioia on the beach. The plan was to stay a couple of days and shop, but that didn’t happen. When the mess this world is in is cleaned up, I will return and do it MY way 😉 Looking forward to your next adventure.

[@barbinbham]

Just want to thank you so much for these wonderful videos!! They are actually helping me get through this very difficult time. I'm so happy when I see a new one is available. I travel every year from my home in the Pacific Northwest, Washington State, US. Last fall I spent a month in Puglia, Lecce, Monopoli, Matera and Bari. I've visited Italy for last 20 yrs. from the north to the very tip, S.Maria di Leuca and Tropea on west coast. Watched volcano on Stromboli erupt. In 2002 I sat at a table across from Gore Vidal at an amazing cliffside restaurant in Ravello. So...I just really wanted to let you know how much I appreciate what you are doing. It means a lot to many Italia lovers all over the world. 💕

[@NickiPositano]

Thank you for watching!

[@amyschneidhorst1384]

The story of how Holly came to you reminds me so much of how my three dear cats found me in the various places I have lived. Holly you knew a good thing when you saw it.

[@philippawood5047]

Oh Nicki, that dream was fantastic! A lot of my friends have birthdays happening in lockdown so I'll definitely order some delicious caprese hampers for them! Thanks for sharing! 😍😍

[@JenShea]

The best cats and dogs choose you... not the other way around :) Holly is a Dearheart! Really loved (and appreciate) the dream Capri sequence!!

[@jeanneamato8278]

You are a good friend. Everybody could you a little help. My heart goes out to all in Italy. Love you and your families and your fur babies. Stay healthy

[@jadesmith574]

Hi Nicki, what a fantastic video! I love the story of Holly and how she chose Carlo and you for her forever home. Dogs are very wise! 🐶❤️ The dream sequence was wonderful! Loved it all! 👏🌟💁‍♀️❤️ I’m off to check out Michelangelo’ s Website ❣️ Thank you Nicki! Stay safe & Healthy🇮🇹🙏🇺🇸

[@dianadellacioppa2257]

Holly chose well! She’s the cutest, wisest and most intelligent fur ball ever! ...the way she and kitty were waiting for you down the steps, her look was pure adoration 😃 I’m looking at many of your older videos during these vacation days and I’m getting to know you all better and enjoy every minute! 🥰

[@careaa2479]

9:45 💖 How cute are they waiting for you!! Mine is a beagle, so he wouldn't have just been gone at that point. 😄I still luv him though.

[@daniellepexc]

I love your videos. Nature is wonderful and you are great with the garden . I have many flowers on my balcony , and i love to watch your videos sitting there.Hello from Romania

[@janinaleedelrio]

What a lovely video and the Holly story was so touching. Sending much love to you and your family and your friends in Capri. We just started a second province lockdown here in Canada. I live in province of Ontario for the past 29 years and I am originally from Panama. Keep safe and hope to visit Positano soon!!!!

Thank you for all your videos that you graciously do, beautiful Positano ♥️

[@joannabean2907]

Hi Nicki I have enjoyed your video today. I must tell you that when you showed the loguat tree it brought back to me wonderful memories of, coming home from primary school and climbing my Grandmother's loguats trees, mind you I would get myself in lot's of trouble, for climbing trees in my school uniform 😊. Look forward to your next video.

[@abarb2009]

🙏🏻💕 Love fur babies. Holly is a happy little doggie. Cat is so cute going on walks with you. Carlo is awesome!

[@NickiPositano]

Hi, I'm Carlo, thank you!

[@christinarozday1976]

That was so much fun! I needed a bit of a change to your pre-Covid habit of taking us along to the achingly beautiful sites that normally were and soon (praying) will be again a part of your dreamy everyday lifestyle in Positano. Auguri!

[@carolelongo5894]

I just ordered a gift pack from Michel'angelo's ... Couldn't help myself..Will make me feel a little closer to Italy :-) I've never been to their restaurant, but will be sure to go when I'm next in Capri. Thank you for the lovely video!

What a beautiful story. Holly Poo landed in a pot of gold.

[@wendywalsh-pardey9439]

Aww How lovely of you to help your friend's business. It's so hauntingly sad to see Positano so vacant. I guess some will love it but, ya gotta make a dollar. Bless. Thanks Nicki. I'm a firm believer that animals choose YOU. We have a street cat that chose us, some sort of grey oriental. We called him Slim Shady...3 years later, he's Fat Boy Slim. Looking forward to your next post.

[@Nubianette]

I loved this! Good luck to your friends! That’s a great idea! I’ll definitely consider buying a box.

[@storytelller]

Holly literally melts my heart!

[@NickiPositano]

Wonderful!

[@AmyFMcCready]

Holly is ADORABLE! So glad you told this story, although I do remember a video where you touched on this before :) Thank you for the escapism x

[@katekellyification]

I think your dog might be a “docker” like ours-a mix between a cocker spaniel and a dachshund. Ours looks less like a dachshund in the face but his body is long with short legs and wavy hair, like Holly. Except that his coat is black, they could be twins! He loves walks and loves others animals. I love watching him walk around with such exuberance and his tail is a direct sign of how he is feeling!

[@Smartgran]

That was delightful. So relaxed and I loved the dream scenes. Lovely little Holly is such a blessing. Yay for the chickens eggs. Does your dad watch your blogs? Must be so nice for him to see you at home if he does. We've had what I call mediterranean weather up 'til now but there's some rain coming. Can't wait for the next episode from Positano.

[@NickiPositano]

Yes, Dad watches and gives me the best tips and advice!

[@1964kamran]

That was a nice walk in dreams...I enjoyed the story board...and wonderful products....
