So sweet of your dad to send all those goodies!

[@Etcetorize]

Oh my gosh, I think you’re living my dream life. It’s fun living vicariously through you. 😊

[@dianalewis8548]

Me too. Am a bit envious.

[@NickiPositano]

remember it's the highlights reel!

[@angel2836]

Same feelings 🤷‍♀️💗🕊🍒 is beautiful , people and places

[@ladydutch7650]

I do agree!

[@marietumini8773]

Hilarious how you and Carlo squabble over the goodies from your loving amazing father,how genuine and real you are Nicki love your personality and your nonsense attitude as you go about your daily life I love your vlogs of your beautiful family I look forward to them always stay strong .Love from Canada

[@NickiPositano]

😊 thank you

[@samanthab1923]

Love that your dad sends care packages 😊

[@reasonableoffersq8.]

I love the simplicity of your videos. Its so natural and clicks with every household... but the difference is that you enjoy a million dollars view which we lack. Keep up the good work. Kisses

[@berthasanchez6559]

I am telling you your dear father is a sweetheart! Love him , he is a wonderful father Bless him

[@Jessicaisrealawesome]

I’m Australian so when Carlo said “chose the wrong song for this time of year” I thought “why?” Until I realised only very few places celebrate Christmas during summer!!

[@corallie7746]

Me too! I thought the same! I’m from Queensland in Australia 🇦🇺

[@MsLinda165]

Well done on your 80K words! I hope the right person appears to guide you to the next step of publishing. I look forward to reading it!

[@NickiPositano]

I hope so too!

[@ruthcr8839]

Nicki, your dad is the BEST! God Bless him. 🙏🏻😘

[@Zarih67]

You are so genuine. I like it. Splendid as always.

[@katiekent683]

Thank you so much for the video. I almost would call yr videos mini documentaries!!!! I will never get tired of them.

[@NM_AU]

I’m always amazed at everything your Dad packs in to his boxes for you! What a sweetheart! It must cost him a fortune to ship all that weight...shipping costs seem to be astronomical these days. Another fabulous video Nicki, thank you. And now, I’ll be ordering a wood fired Italian pizza for dinner! 😂😋

[@NickiPositano]

He finds very cheap deals for shipping so it really doesn't cost much or I wouldn't let him do it!

[@user-co6lk3sd9x]

Sono nata, cresciuta a Sorrento... Adesso non vivo più lì ma rimarrà sempre una parte di me che nessuno è nessuna distanza potrà togliermi.... Carissima sei una persona molto positiva che apprezza tutto della vita.... Tutto molto bello😍

[@molly1605]

Torna a Surriento 🎶🎵🎶♥️

[@PDogB]

Gave me the giggles to hear christmas music and watch Carlo and Tomaso, (spelling) making waves in summer! Great scene!

[@m.d.t.8389]

Love your Dad’s labels on his homemade jam.

[@joywhitley3141]

I sooo look forward to your videos. Your gardens are just gorgeous. You exhaust me walking up and down the stairs every day, but That’s why your legs are fit and mine aren’t! 🌻 Have a wonderful day and many blessings.

[@judyannkiwi]

Very nice gardens indeed

[@violetaura6632]

Your dad is so sweet to send you gifts regularly. What a blessing. I enjoy your videos so much. Thank you for explaining something that should be common sense. I wish the US would get its act together and require wearing darn masks indoors. Lastly, thank you for sharing your Positano life. It brings some joy to my life. :)

[@Tetkowski]

I absolutely look forward to watching every Sunday morning and dreaming of past trips to the area. Buona Domenica a tutti.

[@judithricca6915]

It’s Wednesday half way through the week, and I needed a Nicki & Carlo fix. Better now!

[@jboxwood2194]

When Carlo and Tommaso were making waves in the pool, I knew immediately these are my type of people! 😂

[@jorusnak1998]

Oh my goodness your videos make me laugh. Esp. Carlo making waves in the pool. Thank you, thank you.

[@always.wondering.wandering]

Christmas in July, love it! We have a tv channel that plays Christmas movies the month of July. Your dad is so nice to send you all the wonderful goodies. You're a good man Harry! I like how Holly walks on the wall for a better view when you two are walking the steps. We have a neighbor who when she walks the dog and it does #2, she then bags it and secures to the the dogs harness so he can carry it the rest of the walk. The beach and pizza.....perfect combination! And then, pizza again.....and the cakes, they look sooo..... good! The evening view as well, what a perfect way to end the day.

[@mf5531]

sounds fun!

[@southerngirlinterrupted6572]

I loved watching this video! You included so many different sights and places! It was nice to see Sorrento in action! And the pizza 🍕, YUM!!! Your Dad is such a sweetheart, he sends very thoughtful boxes to you and they always look fun to open...I think Carlo enjoys them just as much, 😆! The sweets especially 🍬 !! Your home looks so lush and full of summer beauty, I love this time of year! And the night views were just spectacular....so romantic! Sounds like your book is almost done, yay!! Carrying around 💩 a lot , huh? 😂 That made me laugh, I wonder why they don’t have more garbage cans out for public use? Thanks for a great video, Nicki! So much fun! 😘

[@NickiPositano]

Carrying poo..a downside to living in Posi!

[@edmeza9053]

The very best start to a Sunday morning watching you all , especially eating pizza and cake ,I really just like watching the views and your trips out 😃

[@michellemaria1360]

So fun to see you opening the box from your dad! I miss my Dad terribly and he would have done the same for me. 💔 I also love watching Carlo and Tomasso having fun father/son time. ☺️

[@rickyseymour4137]

Love all your videos, sat outside last night until 2 in the morning enjoying a nice fire and the stars relaxing with a few cold drinks, watching the planes fly over wondering how many were going to your country and wishing i was on one of these planes, nice to wish on a beautiful night,maybe someday my wishes will come true to visit the amalfi coast, it's because of all the old movies of the amalfi coast i saw from the 50's and 60's i like old movies, your videos just take me to a place i dream of often,still wishing dreams do come true, Thank You.

[@cheryllaity2369]

Thank You!!!!...For picking up your dog 💩...My neighbors don’t think it’s necessary... the corner of my yard resembles a toilet!!!....love the video..I hope to get there someday ...with all this mess going on here in the USA who knows when! 😞

[@sandralistovitch7744]

That was another great video it always makes me feel like I'm on vacation with you guys happy valentine's day 🤗

[@daniellereid01]

Nicki, I have been feasting on your vlogs for two weeks now and it has rekindled my desire to speak Italian properly (I'm a classically-trained singer, but my Italian outside of a music score isn't great). I also have itchy feet to visit Italy again, so as soon as the Corona scare is over, that's exactly what I'm going to do! Thank you so much for this inspiration and your beautiful vlogs xox 💕

[@annortolaza6401]

Another enjoyable video Nicki🤗 The care package looked yummy. The scenes of Positano are always beautiful !! This time last year I was in Sorrento🤗❤️. I love Elizabeth's home and she does have a nice view of the coast and beach front. I wanted to ask you do you have some light at night when you walk back home? Good luck on your Novel sounds exciting trying something new. Everyone looks beautiful in your video, as always. Love Holley girl ❤️ Looking forward to your Wednesday's video🤗☀️

[@NickiPositano]

there are a few lights but they don't always work!

[@annortolaza6401]

Wow well I can imagine how that must be walking that at night.

[@carolinecoffey2373]

Hi I’m binge watching all your videos as I’m new subscriber loving them thank you so much I love Italy 🇮🇹

[@dianalewis8548]

Another beautiful post. Never tire of your daily life. Good food and friends and your animals. All you need in life💋❤ Enjoy your Sunday. Ciao bella.

[@susanhoover7925]

Love having my coffee in morning and walking in your garden and viewing the sea. One day we want to come back to the Amalfi🤗

[@mariamjehn7071]

The PIZZA!! Yummmmmm!! Beautiful video!!

[@Britt11.11]

Nicki Thanku so much for uploading more often & sharing your life with us on YT!! It's like watching our favorite TV show every Sunday night!!! 🤣😁😻 Much Luv to U & the Fam!! ❤💋💋💋 Fr Australia

[@spookydude7449]

Being half Italian and French Canadian I love watching all that you do from day today. Now I am an author of short stories books the way I roll is to get them printed and promote them myself through friends that contact friends they sell very well indeed. I wish you luck with this new adventure, I started writing after being a serving soldier of over 22 years in in the UK. Much love from my family to your family xx

[@NickiPositano]

thank you!

[@janetlombardi2314]

What a good dad you have! Another great video

[@NickiPositano]

Thank you!

[@jillpatel1180]

The scenery is stunning!

[@user-fd1qb7ml2j]

Thank you for sharing your life in Positano! I have been to Itally years ago, and I loved it! Positano is like a paradise! So happy for you to be living in such a beautiful place! Enjoy your vlogs! Love your little puppy! Also thank you for giving the info on the wearing of masks. I felt so bad for Italy when the covid 19 made such an impact on all of the lovely and kind people there! I pray everything turns around for the good! Blessings from California USA!!!💞💞

[@moirasmith8319]

Your dad sending you all that stuff I know the feeling I lived in Cyprus for 3 years and there was many things I could not get there I eat cranberries all the time put them in my granola and eat them as a snack too I love your videos I often put them on to cheer me up thanks and best wishes from Peterhead Aberdeenshire Scotland x

[@robynneadamson9856]

Your garden is looking beautiful. Amazing amount of vegetables you grow. Lovely look at your life in a beautiful part of the world.

[@NickiPositano]

Thank you so much 😊

[@corallie7746]

8:26 good to see them having silly fun!

[@lilagibson1918]

Hi Nicki- Glad to hear your book is coming along that’s so exciting! I will definitely buy a copy when it’s ready. You cracked me up with the tea towel on fire 🔥. Lovely illustrations! You just need a version with you on the balcony and Holly looking up at you like your photo. I love Sorrento! I bought a beautiful hand embroidered towel at a shop there. Thanks for taking us along. ❤️Hugs from California

[@NickiPositano]

Yay, thank you!

[@rebekahsalt26]

Perfect Sunday morning thank you 😊💓👌✨

[@m.d.t.8389]

I just saw a picture of Positano in a magazine. It showed the beach with all the boats. I tried to find your kayak 😂😂😂

[@barbarawillis5187]

Another fabulous video 🙂 gourds in hanging baskets-always learning something new-thanks for sharing your opening the boxes from your Father-love that he sends you the Sunday paper magazines-good to see the family and friends and the beautiful scenery ❤️

[@samdipietro1903]

We had lunch at the covo bar, highly recommend their food. We sat there all afternoon eating and drinking waiting for the ferry back to Sorrento .

[@denisescull4227]

I've been quite inspired by you to try new recipes. Thank you for forging forward with videos, even with the difficulties you've had. I hope you get it squared away soon! Thanks Nicki!

[@chrissyplanteater2892]

I’ve just found your vlogs and having recently (4years ago ) fell in love with Italy I am now watching all your posts and dreaming of returning 😀🌞 we did a day trip with a small bus and 2 amazing local women drivers who took all along the coast it was the best day of the holiday, we only had 2 hours in positano but loved it and I’m trying to learn the lingo which is challenging but hopefully will learn a little 🙏

[@saskiaguy1940]

Your garden in summer is nothing short of GLORIOUS! 👌🏼

[@yolandaphibbs1201]

You lead a very beautiful life Nicki. Thank you for taking us to Sorrento, bought back memories 💕. Oh and I love Carlos tee shirt

[@lvdmerwe]

You have the sweetest Dad! Thanks for all the videos, I always enjoy them😀

[@ldaniela6755]

Merry Christmas to Carlo and Tommaso 😂 ! Lots of love to you , Sky , Holly ,Lilly and Kitty 😘. Greetings from Germany 🌻

[@susanm784]

How lucky are you? Pizza two days in a row! They all looked fantastic. I’m now reading the Sunday supplements and thinking of you getting yours eventually. Good old dad again eh?

[@shiromiperera9271]

Very interesting ..and also about the breif details you give about beautiful italy!

[@dawnstan4391]

I miss Italian pizza. Love how caring your Dad is and how he sends you treats. Another great video.

[@bouchardmireille469]

Merry christmas with thi music your is all good

[@nancychan1467]

What a wonderful way to start my Sunday mornings, by watching your videos. Your dad is so sweet to send you all sorts of goodies, even some for Carlo. Thanks for making me smile 😊

[@NickiPositano]

Thank you so much!

[@amandarichards7395]

Those pizzas look so delicious. Your dad is terrific - I love dried cranberries - I make my own granola and use them in that. I’ve been meaning to compliment Carlo on the new gate - it looks so good. Thanks for this weeks escape...I really enjoy watching them

[@gigistbarth4499]

Another fascinating video with such a special part! The special part is the package sent by your Dad; my Dad used to always send us surprise packages and it brought back the very best memories, although he has been gone for 14 years now. Dads are so special and they are always thinking of their children...I love "walking around" with you in all of the different locations. I was in Sorrento for my first time a couple of years ago and everything is so familiar, although most of my time is spent in Positano. Every view of a familiar place is precious, so thank you again! Grazie mille!

[@karenhoward6439]

So lovely to see Sorrento - it was our last foreign holiday before the world turned upside down and we absolutely fell in love with the Amalfi Coast. We are stuck in the UK in lockdown again and so I’m living vicariously through your vlogs, thank you.

[@m.d.t.8389]

My daughter and I start getting that feeling for Christmas music around July/August so tell Carlo and Tommaso they are just fine with their choice as music.

[@rocumali4637]

i will be there by the end of august! cant wait.. i m from firenze italy

[@margal3120]

I laughed out loud with Carlo & Tommaso (sp?) making waves in the pool 😂👍🏻 too funny!

[@NickiPositano]

Hi, I'm Carlo, thank you, yes I know we are two big kids!

[@juneburns1565]

Fantastic video!!! Love you guys xxx

[@janetptasienski4141]

Love how you and Carlo bicker over the desserts. So much like my husband Paul and I.. made us laugh. Those pizzas look amazing.

[@treurnichtxx]

The view from the square where the war memorial is in Sorrento is wonderful. We walked around there, and I remember gazing longingly down at the sea pool which looked so inviting, but we were just passing through! We stood in that very same place!

[@aprile271]

And of course nothing like a dad thinking of you !!!! Bless him

[@myheartisinjapan3184]

Nicki, I’m so excited for your new book! I’ll be on the lookout for it. I love your e-cookbook. Use those recipes a lot!

[@NickiPositano]

Yay! Thank you!

[@kathleenhoney]

Where do I find the e recipe book pls

[@kathrynjohnson6337]

Write it and we will come. Lots of people would buy it through here. Figure out how to do it on youtube. I have credit card in hand right now. I love youy and yours like you were far off family. It is such a pleasure to just go through your videos in no special order and get to know all about your lovely life in Italy. I wish you and Carlo nothing but the best in life. I hope you both know how lucky you are to have such cool spouses. You were made for one another. Stay safe and keep eachother warm.

[@NickiPositano]

Hi, I'm Carlo, Thank You!

[@mariarocco1706]

Ah Sorrento! How beautiful it is. We were there last summer, it is wonderful to see all the places we visited, can wait to come back.

[@diannedutton6127]

I love seeing what you make for a meal, then I try recreating it.

[@r_s2772]

Watching your videos always cheers me up, thank you for sharing your views and days with us.

[@timjones6255]

The moment for writing is a special thing. Dickens could only write at a desk with a bowl of apple cores. Their smell made the words flow. I have to have a view of the sea.

[@meriemo4482]

Thank you I can t wait for Sunday morning for your video I m glad life is near to normal and turns start coming

[@keltait]

the wave making was hilarious

[@jmrobert7522]

I totally enjoy you and your family and look forward to every new episode. 💝💝💝

[@cbeark]

I wish my Dad would take pointers from yours

[@Lisasandiego1]

My favorite thing to watch on your videos is unboxing from your dad. Next favorite thing is Carlo doing anything! Next favorite is your cooking & Holly!

[@cornishcoves9399]

it is lovely to look back at your summer vlog but also wonder how people have managed to make ends meet during these times without their usual income revenue from tourism for this area; You are obviously a caring friend to some in difficult times. Bless your people and gorgeous coastal villages.. We are going into winter here but having a lovely respite of 14c today! walking time! but not on hundreds of stone steps as you do daily Nicki! wow!♥ I have started my Christmas crafts today... 🧶🎄

[@lisacavitt1756]

As always a great video to start my Sunday! Thank you!

[@peggymousacraftingideas7911]

Another lovely vlog. Good luck with the book. How nice to receive a parcel from your dad. Carlo was so funny making waves in the pool!!

[@wrldtrvlr7246]

Thank you for the visit to Città di Sorrento and the Piazza della Vittoria. In a normal year I would be halfway through my stay in Sorrento and enjoying an aperitivo granita sitting at the Piazza della Vittoria watching all of the wedding guests going to one of the high end hotels for their receptions. Sigh, but not this year. Is there any history regarding the columns and lion statues in Positano? It reminds me of columns in Brindisi at the end of Via Traiana. Stay safe and enjoy Positano with limited tourists.

[@ninadesousa3031]

I recently subscribed to your channel , I love your videos! Literally hooked on it! The views my goodness lovely.. Stay well, Best, Nina

[@NickiPositano]

Welcome aboard!

[@aprile271]

Fabulous video of course those pizzas are luscious enjoy it for us too and the view is always breathtaking grazie Positano ciao !!!!

[@pumkincat9665]

Love your videos ,feels like we are really in Italy, walking around with you all. Which is great considering we can't travel for now. Really appreciate these videos.

[@AnAlbertaGirlAtHeart]

Beautiful video, I enjoy every one of your videos but I find this one especially nice.

[@NickiPositano]

Thank you very much!

[@PB-jq9ci]

Ciao Nicki!! Coming down south next week and on the Amalfi coast in about 10 days!! Can't wait to escape!! Managed to rent a lovely small home in Erchie! We might bump into each other while we are visiting the stunning coastal towns of the Amalfi coast who knows!! Thank you for sharing!!

[@NickiPositano]

Have fun!

[@suginami123]

Excellent and simple explanation about the masks. I’m from the UK too, why can’t they also have a simple clear policy? In Tokyo we also wear them in the street as it’s so crowded. But is not mandatory. Every business is very proactive. Gorgeous lemon cake.

[@karenkilba2907]

The wave makers made me laugh so hard! Thank you I needed that!

[@NickiPositano]

Hi, I'm Carlo, thank you, we are big kids and we have fun like this!

[@caterinaagostino5690]

This brings back so many memories the summer of 2016 we spent one week in Positano at The Royal Prisco and one week in Sorrento. Love your videos Bella the make feel as if I'm still in Positano ❤🇮🇹

[@nancycleary3358]

Thank you, so enjoying each video. Visiting you from, Ottawa, Canada.
