I love to hear the little one speak - every ounce of me listens intently, as if were the most important thing in the world.Oh when he said, "Mama mia! pick me up from off the floor - adorable! Grandpa in the garden with his helper....that is a good life my friend, real good.

Good to hear - I worried I was just biased in finding his little dialogue amusing. 🥰

Oh my gosh, Gianfranco is already learning how to plant.... what a wonderful childhood he is having!!! ❤❤❤

Being taught Italian by Gianfranco is amazing! I wish I had the ability that a young child seems to have for learning languages. 😊

I first discovered your channel in 2021 when I was 13 years old and instantly fell in love with Italy through your eyes. I’m now 17 and on an exchange year in Italy, from Sweden, and experiencing it through my one one’s. Thank you for showing me the beauty of Italy, you’ve changed my life. ❤

[@KylieFlavell]

Wow!! Thank you for following for so long! I’m so happy for you experiencing this country now at the beautiful age of 17!!! 🎉❤

[@theresecrisman6230]

Kylie, after nearly six years of dreaming about Italy and being inspired and encouraged by your videos, my dream is finally realized and I am living in Rome! While this is truly a dream come true, everything I imagined isn’t necessarily how it has worked out-I’m struggling to learn the language and make friends with Italians, my job is in tourism not something creative as I hoped, and my window overlooks a loud busy street, not a piazza. However, each day there are little moments as dreamy as my Italian fairytale when the ancient walls of a palace are aglow in the evening sun as I walk home or when the man making my cappuccino bids me “buona giornata!” I’m wondering if this was similar to your experience moving to Italy. How did you fully immerse yourself into the sometimes unfriendly, disheartening realities of life in Italy as a foreigner? And how did you create the career you were passionate about while maybe having to do jobs you didn’t like to make ends meet? While this is a question, it is also a thank you for being like a friend to me over the years and for tirelessly sharing beauty which has brought joy and discovery to my life. I wish I could give you a big hug and say “my friend, we’ve finally done it!” 💛

[@KylieFlavell]

Wow! Congratulations! I’ll answer this in my Q&A.

[@RosemaryOltarzewski]

Beautiful video thank you for sharing ❤🎉

I love seeing wash on the line. I have always enjoyed hanging out my wash. I'm 70, and we travel internationally about 80% of the year. When we visit our son's home in the US. I always use the washline my husband built with great joy!! I can't wait for your Christmas videos.

[@tatyanalulova]

Thank you for the new video! ❤ I love the intro!

[@tchotchkegirl8880]

As always your videos are magnificent. What a Beautiful place to live a life of love, peace and a happy family. Gianfranco is a very advance for his age. So meticulous in everything he does. Fabolous! We so look forward to seeing your beautiful journey. The land is incredible with spring like weather in November. I truly believe the seasons have shifted. Will you consider writing a book of your receipts. Also a coffee table style book of your Italian home design would just be so fabulous. I would definitely love to have a reference book of your style ideas for when we build our home. We will be incorporating as many of the old artisan ways i the design. Thank you for sharing your journey. God Bless

Loved hearing Gianfranco with the deer... Absolutely agree about natural, handmade tiles; it'll be good to see the finished result when they're laid in the Chicken Coop. The tile-making furnace was striking to see. Such a beautiful dress you're wearing; I would love to know if you still make or design your own clothes.

[@annbrosnan8586]

We have had grey skies and drizzle for so many days, so seeing so much sunshine has been good for the soul. Gianfranco is learning so much and is a great helper in the garden as well as the kitchen.

[@KushQueen9]

❤Always happy to see your cheerful videos, Kylie. I'm also in an extremely hot place at the moment, in East Africa and the sun always makes a huge difference, so no wonder you are always cheerful. Clean air, fresh food, sunshine. I was never used to the cold weather in England. Ps that apple crumble dish looks delicious, I will have to create my own version and that organic olive oil wow!

[@nancychestnut8928]

Kylie, you're looking so beautiful! Gianfranco is a charmer and I smile every time I hear him exclaim about the goings on during your walks and activities. Enjoy the beautiful weather!

[@glleon80517]

I love cotto floor and ceiling tiles as well, Kylie! It’s not just the history, but the uneven texture that throws light, color and shadow in a magical way. On holidays in Tuscany, I too love to lie in bed or even the floor and look up at the ceiling while taking photos. Thank you for this lovely little film! Alla prossima!

[@eleanor1097]

The crumble was outstanding!

[@stomas5640]

The background outside with the cypress trees looks like a painting until a semi truck was driving by. I would fill the swimming pool with the liquid gold and dive right in!

[@talesfromtuscany]

Sempre bellissimi ,i tuoi video Kylie! I just lie here and smile, laugh and marvel at all the lovely joy that you share with us. I'm missing Tuscany so much at the moment, as I'm here is Sydney but it's wonderful to be sharing precious time with family. Gianfranco is increasingly adorable and I giggle as he chats away in his perfect Italian. Che angelino! Loved seeing you all enjoy the new season oil and also marvelled at how they make the cotto ...isn't it wonderful? They truly are beautiful. We have some in our home here and there in small quantities but I adore and appreciate them. Grazie mille Kylie...alla prossima 🥰🤗😘Marisa 😘

[@christineford6763]

GianFranco’s age is my favourite ( mom of 8 and grandma ) so precious !

[@rgw5830]

I wonder how many sales Sleepy Denim and JW (Jasmine and Will) in Australia will receive from Brian's thoughtful gifts. Imagine a sideline for your Mum, sourcing and sending beautiful things from Florence for Brian's upcoming boutique store. I'd order Italian fabric from Casa dei Tessuti !

[@ehpeachylove]

Dearest Kylie what a lovely video and hearing GianFranco was a treat… he is speaking so well and helping in the garden was so cute. Beautiful scenic areas shown, the olive oil so lovely… it’s a blessing that you have that to enjoy. Have a restful and praying easy weekend. Whatever you are able to post for the holidays will be a blessing. No pressure. Much love to all your family.❤❤❤❤❤ Brian’s taste in clothes is very lovely. Such a special friendship. The tiles being made was so interesting to watch. Thank you sweet friend. 🥰🤗🙏

[@danapnmk]

Now I know, what a "capriolo" is, and the phrase "È andato via." Bravo. Thank you for always making such wonderful videos. I always look forward to them, and it’s a real treat and a break from considering the state of the world. I sit down with a good coffee and let myself be swept away and enchanted by your world. For your next Q+A: How do you stay motivated and inspired to create such creative and engaging content? I can see that beyond the videos, you also put so much love and energy into your private life and the work around and on your estate.

[@carrieheaps1325]

Very sweet episode Kiley. I loved seeing the drying baby clothes on the line. I have learned that newborns are more peaceful when clothed in natural fibers like cotton, linen and wool. Their systems don’t handle man-made materials. I think this info is starting to help parents. I’m excited for your darling family!

[@RomyHouston-y9v]

I actually read a study recently where natural fibers are better for the human body, not just children.

[@carrieheaps1325]

Agreed! Future content idea Kiley!

[@francescahamilton6856]

You look blooming Kylie. Not long now. I suppose you are already planning a scrumptious Xmas. I showed my Plumber your videos. He's watching all 36 videos of your 'Learn Italian series'. He's Albanian, speaks Italian, but says it needs brushing up. He's very impressed. They're excellent. You are a good teacher. You have lots of admirers. Take care. Francesca in London ✨️✨️

[@KylieFlavell]

Oh wow, I spend a lot of time on the language ones so I’m super glad they’re helpful. 😊

[@anabohanes107]

Congratulations on your second pregnancy Kylie! I have two boys as well and they are a joy. A 4year old committed to having fun all the time and a 4 month old who seems to be going the same way. Discipline and love all the way is the way to go. I love your videos and seeing you so filled with life. I’ve followed you for so many years too. We tried a move to a small village by Siena but we were so afraid of the neighbors we immediately turned around and came back to Austria. I almost went into a depression since Italy has always been my dream. My husband’s deal is that I first have to learn German before we attempt to ever try Italy again but I’ve resisted for 4 years to learn the language. I love how you guys live in a rural area and it’s probably safer. I life through your videos even though we also live in a beautiful place with vineyards but the sounds of Italian sing to my Colombian soul. Sending you blessings and a safe and loving delivery. ❤
