POSITANO: THE QUARANTINE DIARIES - EP 13 Beach walk, new clothes and an announcement!

[@SJ-vo1bw]

I'm a lover of travel and history (especially old photos of places). Everyplace I go, I image life before tourism there, just people, living their lives. Too bad it took a deadly virus to see those days again. Thank you for the videos Nicki, you are so genuine and kind. Your videos are relaxing and beautiful, but it's your natural ease that brings it all together.

[@anneforster510]

Gorgeous dress Nicki . Lovely vlog , I love seeing your Italian life with Carlo and Sky and now Sky's boyfriend . 💟💟

[@luanagarofalo3584]

the dress & bathing suit looks lovely on you! this summer it’s all about long dresses that I love 💕 having coffee ☕️ this morning with your vlog and a big CIAO from Milano Italy 🇮🇹

[@NickiPositano]

Ciao Milano! Thank you!! 😊

[@norma6309]

Speeding up your entry into the pool was hilarious, both my husband and me were laughing out loud. 😆😍

[@marycahill546]

The past couple of days I have binged on all your uploads. Love them all. They have been my great stress reliever as we self isolate here in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. Thanks so much for coming to us and sharing the beauty of your region and life.

[@NickiPositano]

Glad you like them!

[@jaynebrandon7184]

I really love your channel it's so real and beautiful and just say there's always something new!!

[@Queenjmc563]

Oh! The 16th of May... my Birthday! I love the bathing suit, it looks wonderful 😊

[@barbarawillis5187]

Good editing. I was so excited to see the dress. Lovely. As you walked down a Positano lane and reached the ocean, I could smell the ocean! Interesting how the community prepares for the future by protecting against landslides. I am happy you and Elisabeth created the cookbook. Herding chickens, kids playing a card game while Holly and one of the cats relax, Holly taking a swim. As always, thanks for an enjoyable video.

[@NickiPositano]

The landslide project has been ongoing for 2 years now, with many many breaks in between short periods of work.

[@lighthousetravelers2246]

OMG! 9:15 is where we stopped when I was escorting a group to Europe a few years back. I got the largest (and sweetest) peaches that I had ever seen. We also got some ice-cold lemonade there too. I just found and subscribed to your channel because I love it. As a travel agent, when I send clients to Positano (whenever the world opens up again), I will be recommending excursions and boat rentals by Blue Star... I feel like if I know all of you personally. ❤️

Like many people I discovered your videos while stuck at home. I have to say your channel has become my absolute favorite! Such a bright spot during such a dark time and a wonderful escape. Cheers from Alaska

Thank you!

[@hildaornelas8520]

Hello from Phoenix Arizona. After watching pro walk tours, I came across Positano and knew instantly that I would visit someday. I have since stumbled upon your channel and have fallen in love with life there. Hope to travel to Italy as soon as it is safe for all. You’ve inspired me to learn Italian😁 Love, love your channel and Holly too!

[@leerobins749]

Another good video ..so interesting..I liked your new dress and bathers very much ..also the style of your dress at the end of the video ,mustard and red print the style and colour fabulous..

Yay! Thank you!

Hahaha! Getting in the pool! Even in Arizona the water is freezing in the pool! We have to wait till its over 100 degrees during the day to warm it up! (Or get a heater for the pool). Love your dress and swimsuit! 😀

[@sarinfserg4965]

It is kind of sad seeing Positano so empty ! Hopefully the tourists will arrive soon ! Love the possibility of your cookbook and support you and Ms Elisabeth, her children are soooooo cute ! Looking to receive your book hopefully autographed by the 4 of you. Ciao from the Eternal City

[@NickiPositano]

It's only in ebook form so can only be viewed on a ipad, computer, phone, sorry!

[@karenbrown5177]

I'm backtracking watching the videos I haven't seen. I did order the cookbook and was happy Amazon even carried the flour. Anxious to make pasta with my grandygirls. The dress is beautiful. Thank you for sharing your life. Blessings.

[@joannsalas7015]

I’m so excited for the cookbook! I was taking down notes from your videos, so this will be great to have. I’m going to try every single recipe lol! I’m so happy to be able to support you and Elisabeth! Loved the dress and the bathing suit!

Hope you like it!

That dress and bathing suit look fantastic on you , Nicky!

[@c.chappelierfuller-hughes7852]

Cookbook is sooo wonderful. Thank you for doing this!

[@nancylaponzina7034]

The recipe book is lovely, each recipe is styled and presented very professionally. Thank you for sharing not only these great looking recipes, but your friendship as well with Leni, and providing a peek into your family's lockdown experience. I will have to find a conversion chart however to convert grams, etc. into cups before trying the chocolate banana bread which looks like a winner. Good luck with your publication and stay safe and healthy. We love your videos.

[@NickiPositano]

In Europe all measuring scales can be converted from metric to the old system. Or you can ask 'Alexa' or use a free online converter. We have to do it all the time when using American recipes.

[@rebeccarendle3706]

You looked beautiful in the dress👗 and swimming costume 👙Nicki. Loved the pool entry🏊‍♀️.. It reminded me of Michael McIntyres sketch on British people on holiday 😂.. Eg the difference between British and Italians getting into a pool😂... You should watch it on you tubes... You will crack up 🤣

[@user-fd1qb7ml2j]

Nicki that dress is beautiful! And so is the bathing suit! So nice that it's a friend of yours that is the designer! Brilliant! I also loved the dress you were wearing at the end, love the color. I would like to try out those recipes. Great job!♥️

[@LAOM3423]

In my other lifetime, I'd like to have the life of Holly. Love your videos! Keep them coming.

[@paivitiitta1884]

Nicki...thanks for the video, get ready for a very hot summer! I live in the island of Crete in Greece (I'm from Finland ) and it's already boiling hot ! We are located sort of near so I guess we're boiling in the same climate ! And no way going north because of the lockdown ! If your cook book keeps me fit as you are , I;m happy to use it ! You're living in the paradise so enjoy most of it now that there's no hassle with tourists ! They will come eventually anyway !

[@lorrainebocca689]

I so enjoy each and everyone of your videos, IG posts and all your forms of social media. I live vicariously thru you as my #1 dream is to live in Italy, if only for a short time, to experience everyday life in the country of my ancestors. My parents are from Naples & Sicily and while I have made several visits to Italy, I left a part of me there, and it is the only country I wish to return to. Stay safe, stay well and I feel as though I have made new friends with you and your family. Ciao and Grazie!

I love the church bells and music I miss it so much. It's the one thing I'm conscious of when I'm in Italy. Living in Australia we don't have church bells or small village communities. By the way beautiful swimsuit.

[@smokeandquills]

Plenty of little communities like that with beautiful bellringing churches near me in regional Victoria, Australia. What state of Australia are you in? It might not be as widespread but we do have them.

At 5:58 that dog sitting perched up there on the left as you walk by is the cutest little surprise. How adorable. What are they doing to Piazza dei Mulini? New ground or something else? I love the bathing suit - has a bit of a retro look with the way the top is designed. Congrats and good luck with the cookbook - such a lovely treat.

Hello Nicki - I have stumbled across your podcast and absolutely love it! Wonderful insight to living in south Italy. Thank you for sharing so many snippets of your life. I also love your dress sense. Hope you don’t mind me asking, but where is your mustard coloured dress from?

[@kathymccormick9174]

Hi Nicki , how good is it to be out and about ? I was lucky when our driver stopped at the top for a photo.....(and to buy Limoncello from his umm...cousin🤔 😉) because there wasn’t another soul there. Your walk down on the beach brought back so many happy memories for me, thank you. I’ll be checking out the cook book right now.

[@NickiPositano]

wow, you were lucky!

I really thought it was normal , and that the limoncello lady really was his cousin.....for a minute 🤣🤣🤣

I live in Melbourne and you are one of the very few people I follow. Your videos somehow take me inside a world I can forget the reality and just dream. I manage a large team in a healthcare centre and it has a been a nightmare and add that to a situation where I'm not with my partner it's horrible. My dream is to live in a small town in either Italy or germany with my partner and looking at your videos and your way of life helps me a lot to dream and hope that dream comes true. Thanks Nicky for creating stories and help people like me, dream.
