San Donato Val di Comino (Lazio), Italy【Walking Tour】History in Subtitles - 4K

[@violetlantern]

I grew up in this town. I still somehow remember even the smallest details of this place. Unfortunately, I had to move from San Donato due to my parents' work. But I still hold the memories of this town very close to my heart. I hope that I will be able to visit home again. I was born and raised here so I call this place home. Btw thanks for posting this video. I'll watch all of it. Kudos 👍

[@StillWanderer]

Hi Lazy, I am from and don't live terribly far from it, so I had to visit it even though I never did before. It was a gorgeous discovery... didn't expect San Donato to be THIS beautiful. Glad I could somehow bring back good and happy memories, truly glad to read it here. Thanks for the comment and a big Ciao Riccardo

[@violetlantern]

@@StillWanderer Thanks for making a 4k video of San Donato. It's a beautiful valley but it's underappreciated for its beauty. It's my hometown so this place is really dear to my heart. I've seen pictures of San Donato and it has developed quite a bit. I remember how the school parks used to be quite different. I'm talking about scuola elementare. Though I don't remember Italian that much but I still remember the iconic Italian hand gestures used while talking lol. Keep posting good content Riccardo!!!

[@StillWanderer]

@@violetlantern Thank you lazy, 3 years by now with this hobby (actualy almost 4!) and very much enjoying it. I hope to continue with this rythm or at least to continue exporing around. Hah yeah, we have our way of talking/gesturing with our rythms for sure. Looking also forward to visit nearby towns in the near future... I hope I'll make it. Wherever you are now, a big salute from here and a hug

[@violetlantern]

@@StillWanderer Yeah I hope that you continue this hobby of yours. People from all around the world can view them and also you're showing them a new side of Italy.

Italy is absolutely an amazing country. So much diversity in the landscape, so much beauty and so much history!

[@StillWanderer]

Ciao Avery, oh... you commented on San Donato, a stunning town I made a few months ago. This was a stunner indeed... agree on the diversity , it can change even not only from regions to regions but from areas in the same region as well.. once different states and countries ... now all together

[@estherkisob9919]

Incredible town. The surrounding hills are magnificent. It's like two videos put together as we move from the old medieval old town to the newer part of the town. Italy towns in central Italy are like museums pieces. Each one is quite unique and has its own character. I enjoyed video. Thanks Riccardo for your efforts.

[@StillWanderer]

Glad you enjoyed it Esther, your adjective, incredible, fits it perfectly. A town I knew almost nothing about and wasn't too keen on visiting .... yet.,... was literally very impressed by its beuaty. DIdn't expect it to be like this. Buon weekend dear Esther and see you soon then as always

[@geraldinehadiwidjaja7421]

Such an interesting town. Seems like there's a surprise at every corner you turn (eq.the small crib). I love how there are some many pot plants too, makes it very pretty. Lovely cobblestone streets, but must be hard on the feet. Thank you again for sharing. Keep wandering and sharing, Riccardo 🤗

[@StillWanderer]

So true Geraldine; San Donato was a great discovery... didn't know much about it (almost nothing actually) but I was taken back by its rough beauty. Didn't expect it to be THIS nice. The small crib was just the little cake on top) As always, thank you and wish you a nice weekend Geraldine

[@StillWanderer]

@@geraldinehadiwidjaja7421 🤗 - a joy for me too Geraldine - it helps me a lot as well in relaxing and in just contemplating while visiting those towns (compared to the crowded ones for instance). Everything, from the preparation, to phisically staying there, meeting some locals and chatting a bit, to those moments when the camera is off... it's just part of the journey I guess and happy the most of it can be "captured" by the camera and can be shared here

COME POTEVA un piccolo borgo medievale come Donato Val di Comino, posto in alto, con le sue case affollate, essere cosi vario e divertente ? Con le molteplici varianti architettoniche delle sue vie, piazze e persino del Duomo? Gli innumerovoli ciottoli del pavimento di Donato Val di Comino sono molto bene disegnati, fiancheggiati da mura con le loro torce medievali in ferro. Nascere in città come queste deve anche scalpellare o forgiare l'anima di un bambino nei secoli dei secoli. Ti è successo qualcosa di simile, Riccardo Laziale dal Tirreno?. Ascendi come un re, diretto verso il cielo azzurro, su quella scalla tappezzata di muschio verde speranzoso, Riccardo. Vivacissime, risonanti e divertenti conversazioni nel settore di Piazza Giustino Quadrari. Molto simbolico è il vasetto verde, posto sul ciglio di un muro d'angolo su via Pedicata. Vorrei sentire, a capella, la voce tonante di Luciano Pavarotti risuonare nei vicoli di Donato Val di Comino. Bel video, Riccardo Laziale dal Mar Tirreno. Saluti.

[@StillWanderer]

Caro Juan, che bellissimo messaggio, come sempre ci hai abituati ormai. Riesci a catturare l'essenza dei paesi molto più delle immagini devo dire. Sono nato anch'io infatti in un borgo, anche se molto più grande (sono nato a Bracciano), ma pur sempre un borgo e... ho vissuto e vivo in un piccolissimo paese nel Lazio. Quindi forse hai ragione, tutto questo ha influito? Non so! Tutto quello che so è che vivere certe sensazioni e certe impressioni in questi paesi è qualcosa di veramente diverso, lontano dalla "vita la fuori". La frase di quando salgo verso il cielo sulla scala tappezzata di muschio verde mi ha colpito molto... chissà. A volte penso che fra tanti anni (magari 10 o più) questi video rimarranno salvati qui su KZbin ed a volte penso che se questi paesi dovessero un giorno cambiare o spopolarsi così rapidamente (come succede tutt'oggi... gli ultimi anziani non so quanto potranno resistere...) questo rimarrà almeno un "testamento" di "com'era" un luogo... prima del suo cambiamento. Chissà davvero... Ti mando un caro abbraccio come sempre Juan e ti saluto - stasera inserisco un video fatto quest'estate in Toscana poi... la settimana prossima, di nuovo nel mio amato Lazio

Hi Ric, your vids make me realize how similar parts of Lazio, Umbria and Tuscany are. Those hill towns are so iconic! The mosaic on the ground of the Piazza Giustino Quadrari is impressive. Kinda like an exterior, gigantic Ravenna ! Great time of the day for a vid too, the light is superb. Is it with your new setup? You don't have that many vids shot in late PM, if I recall correctly. 1:16:22 a wild Panda appears!

[@StillWanderer]

Dear Hugo, indeed, I don't want to say that I am "campanilism" , but I kinda am) Being from Latium/Lazio I try to show more about this part of Italy (and of course Umrbia and Tuscany as well). Compared to Tuscany (and a bit to Umbria too nowadays...), Lazio's towns are absolutely forgotten and almost never visited by foreign tourists here. Perhaps having Rome at its center is a curse (or a bliessing) for such towns. These are perhaps the "last" moments to film these towns as they are; older people living there are passing away... what will happen to many of them... I'm afraid. I will try to capture as many as possible to make them a bit "stop in time" for a future where it will be completely different (and I'm afraid... not in a good way). Yup this was the new setup, which is quite stunning and I agree with you about the lights ... at that time , before dusk, they were perfect, especially in a winter settings. I have a LOT of older videos with the older camera yet to upload, but I'm now filming with this new setup which is quite striking ... and more stable too. Ahh... and the Pandas are everywhere my friend) Buon weekend Hugo, a big ciao to both of you and let's keetp in touch as always

[@hugolafhugolaf]

@@StillWanderer Nothing wrong with showcasing your own region, my friend. Indeed, Rome is a magnet (rightfully so, to some extent, as it is mighty impressive), and there aren't that many tourists who make it a point to see and visit lesser-known towns, like my gf and I do. And yes, Italy in general has a population that's getting older, and without young people to «replace» those who eventually pass away, some of those villages will pass away too. And if Canada's situation is any indication of things to come, it might become harder for foreigners to buy a property in Italy. Trudeau has passed a law to prevent chineses investors from scooping more land in Canada. The problem is, he didn't make it impossible only for the chinese to buy real estate (even though THEY are the problem), it applies to ALL foreigners. Because of some type of reciprocity treaty between Canada and Italy, now Canadians can't buy real estate in Italy. This vid revealed it : kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5jTcnasYraXhq8 By the time I actually want to buy, hopefully some workaround will have been found.

[@StillWanderer]

@@hugolafhugolaf Gosh Hugo, didn't know about that think that happened in Canada... it's kinda bad if one needs to buy here then. I remember some similiar laws are present in some EU countries (not Italy), with regard to only buying "land", while flats or houses can be bought, land proper or agriculture land isn't possible for many foreigners. I'm sure some way can be found anyway, or something will change perhaps. I still have some friends in Canada and from time to time I hear their ideas about Trudeau (not so positive actually))

[@hugolafhugolaf]

@@StillWanderer Trudeau is the number one reason I want to leave Canada, and he’s now the number one reason why I can’t. Fuck!
