WE'RE BACK IN ITALY! | FROM PROVENCE TO POSITANO| EP 163

[@elizabethbruner2686]

I could see the lightness in Carlo in that his time is free and travel isn’t limited by the time off he can get from work - how wonderful! I loved the hospitality offered by all of your friends, so welcoming and warm. THANK YOU for bringing us along, it was a fabulous trip!

[@juliakolander5719]

Carlo seems giddy with excitement to be home in Italy!! HOME is where the heart is!!

[@NickiPositano]

Hi Carlo here, it is true, it was a great happiness and excitement, because I was finally able to express myself at my best, but I was not excited "only" to return to Italy, but I was also very happy to have found many new friends, very warm welcome , discover new beautiful places, eat delicious food, meet other people, traditions, in short, I was and am happy and excited about so many things, it was a fantastic journey, and a great enrichment for my memories for my heart and soul! 😁😍😘

Carlos making it back to Italy where he's comfortable talking on Italian being so joyful, highlight of the video!

[@Kayaf7]

Carlo had such a wonderful time with Lorenzo & Marie. Made me smile.

[@stacyritter9261]

What a blessing to be able to travel, visit with family, and friends who opened their homes for you!! Thank you from us that are not able to do that...we get to see a little bit more of the world...

[@muhlaynee]

I think everyone dancing together was the best part. Thank you for sharing this adventure with us Nicki!

[@jocelyneboutot5722]

I love to hear Carlo speak to us in Italian. What a beautiful trip "we" shared. Holly is such a great travel companion. I loved the last place you stand at with your friends, it was good to see Carlo enjoy himself. I loved the singing and dancing it reminds me of my french Canadian family. Thank you for bust ng out my family memories and so glad to see this trip "home" Welcome back! Looking forward to more

[@SamFournier]

The mark on the doors to protect against witches was so interesting to see. It must feel so good to be back, I’m sure the chickens are happy to be back too .You can truly see the joy on Carlo’s face to be back in Italy🇮🇹

Sunday morning coffee with Holly, Nickie & Carlo ❤ I'm so happy that Carlo is enjoying his retirement and as he mentioned it gives him the opportunity to travel and enjoy these adventures without time constraints. Had no idea he could sing & dance 😂

[@cjc9535]

I love how comfortable and relaxed you are together. If only EVERYONE could be as natural and relaxed together as you 2 are together. And as respectful and loving of each other as you are.

I like it when Carlo speaks Italian because it allows me to practice my own!

Carlo’s soul and heart is so happy to be back in Italy!!! So heartwarming to see!! We can all relate to being happy to be back where we are the happiest!!

[@miaballester3978]

There's no place like home but then home is where you, Carlo and Holly are together. Mil grazie!!!

[@anniepais700]

Agreed- loved this whole adventure- beautiful, fun and exciting. And agreed- Carlo cutting loose- maybe the idea of vacations, and his own reality of time- not working- has finally settled in? Keep singing and dancing Carlo!

[@NickiPositano]

Thank you very much Annie, actually I often sing and sometimes dance, except that I normally do it when no one sees me, and especially when no one hears me, because I'm definitely out of tune!😂😘

[@berthasanchez6559]

France is a beautiful country too but In my heart Italy is sill the most beautiful place in the world!! Thanks again Nicki and Carlo for let me travel with you and Dear Miss Holly!!

[@annamariaallegretti5618]

Your 35-day trip has been wonderful, how nice to have had the opportunity to share with you the little and big joys of your stages. By now, little Holly has become a great traveller. In the end, home is always home. I wish you with all my heart that this is the beginning of many more trips during Carlo's retirement. Thank you for all the advice on your trip, which can be useful to everyone.💖💖💖

[@soniazaccaria1501]

Nicky you're such a generous person, helping your friends out by giving them a nod to visit their B+Bs on your travels. What a great friend you are!!!

I'm so glad Carlo can adventure because his drone footage brings Nicki's vlogs up a level. I love getting the bigger picture of the places you visit.

[@shetlandsheep3081]

Carlo looks so happy and relaxed now he is a retired person! Really lovely to follow your adventures !

[@Muffy.from-Oz]

It looked like Carlo had found a kindred spirit in Lorenzo..." Serenading the Loves of their Lives", so joyful. Loved all the sights on the way home and the delight of Carlo greeting "Positano..My love " So good to see you three home safe and well. Holly seemed as happy as Carlo. Blessings from Oz

[@margaretfry3043]

Loved this series and especially the wonderful Tuscan scenery in this one. Looking forward to Positano videos.

[@susanmorgan995]

Whatever you lovely folk share is always Uplifting. Love to hear Carlo singing. You have many wonderful friends-let them know how much we appreciate them also! Grazie!

[@kemikemi]

OMG!!!...My ribs hurt from laughing at Carlo and his comment about women turning away from him at discotheque, when he tries to dance with them. How nice to see you and lovely Marie boogie down now and retirement becomes you Carlo, ENJOY! Beautiful! is this beach ground full of white marble stones. I know its worth too, because we had to buy bags and bags of 20 pound bags of white marble stones for our DIY backyard makeover last year and It was expensive. Thank you! Nicki and Carlo, for another adventure Sunday.

[@NickiPositano]

Hi Kemi, I'm happy for making you laugh, however my comment was in the past, I haven't been to the disco for centuries !!😂😅😘

[@totallytania7978]

Carlo singing and dancing!!😁😃Haha! Having a good time!!

[@BayouSonya]

So glad y’all made it back home safe & sound!! So much enjoyed your adventures over the past several weeks…glad Carlo got to experience his 1st time to be on vacation for such a long period of time. I’ll be glad when one day I can take such a long time away from work too and not have to cram everything into 6 or 7 days. I just hope I’m still in good shape physically to do that!😂 It was good to see Maria and her husband in your video today. Her place was gorgeous. It’s so much fun to watch all of the videos on KZbin and Instagram of all the friends you have…and now I feel like I have too…Maria & hubby, Sara & Luca, Elisabeth, Peppe, Leni, Rosi, Celine, Fern & Family, and many more that you’ve introduced us to along the way. Looking forward to seeing what y’all will be up to next!! Now that you’re refreshed…I’m sure you’ve got lots of great things in mind. Love you guys!❤️

An interesting stopover with delightful friends. Castles by the sea and a marble beach, what a way to have a last stop before home sweet home. I know I'd be thankful for the trip and being back in familiar surroundings...a sigh of relief. So take a few days to de-stress and return to normal. Un abbraccio forte a due!

[@willar1338]

When I see umbrella pines I know I’m back in Italy. I don’t know if they have them elsewhere In europe, but we sure don’t have them in oregon. Nicki, you are so lucky to have a handsome Italian man singing love songs to you, even if they aren’t opera quality. Ciao.

Glad to hear you are safely home. Great trip you shared with us - thank you from Brisbane Australia.

it’s a public holiday here today. So I came back to bed with breakfast and as my iPad opened here was the announcement of this video. What a wonderful way to start the day. Your journeys bring me so much joy. Thank you for your filming, dialogue and adventures of friendship. Couldn’t be better. I love Carlo speaking Italian as I am learning this beautiful language and it helps me to tune into the words.

I have so loved your journey to England and back again to Positano, there is the saying, there is no place like home, and Carlo had it written all over his face when you got back, but it was lovely for you Nicki to spend time with your lovely dad after all this time, I’m so happy your back in Positano as I love where you live and can’t wait for my usual diet of the Positano Diary’s, loads of love 😘❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@Haupialani]

I loved this so much, I didn't want the video to end. France and Italy are so beautiful! Grazie Carlo e Nicki !

[@maobfh]

Not sure why, but the last several messages have been directed at Carlo, who’s English has been consistently easy to understand ! Years ago, when looking for castles of Europe, some of my favorites (from what I could see online) were in Italy. Most of my favorites, to be honest. Having been to neither France, nor Italy, nor Spain OR Portugal, nor the UK, I cannot speak to the braggadocio of any regions being more or less than another. They seem to be much like people I know from other countries and it has less to do with the country and more to the individual being comfortable in their own skin. I mean that those who suggested anything was the biggest or best or somehow better than any other, seemed to feel a need to add to who they might be as if without these things that they would brag on they might not be enough. So you don’t hear as much about castles in Italy, but they are there. Lovely places and towers that still stand and you can stay in many. Not just ruins. So no need to worry, Carlo, because those who are interested in castles usually know about the castles in Italy. Or I do, anyway, and I am ordinary. My husband is very very I’ll and will not be with us much longer. I have always wanted to move to Italy, although husband almost talked me out of it. He never wanted to leave because he always had his parents to consider (and still has his 99 year old father) and stay within a few hours of them. Since, barring a miracle, he will not be here much longer then Italy is back on the table and he can visit wherever I am. I don’t know that I could afford Positano so maybe I will have another look at the castles and what is nearby them.

[@futurekron]

Carlo was equally flirting with Marie and her handsome hubby. Such great guests you both are, and Carlo was so happy to be back among his fellow Italian party people! Puppy seems road weary and anxious to get home to her chicky poos.

[@quail259]

Loved it. Miss Italy. Your friends were a delight. Happiness and humor are the keys to life. I absolutely enjoyed Carlo and Lorenzo singing. Carlo English is improving.👍 I haven't watched your vlogs in a long time. I am happy to join you again. Family is so beautiful. Salute!! 🥰🍷

[@joycemyers9898]

That gasp before the "Oh my GOD!" when you were supposed to say it in English was so cute.

Thank you Nicki and Carlo. Such lovely happy video to end your travels. Have had so much pleasure following your on your trip.

[@hairyscotman]

HOME! Always good to be home....wonderful trip, great meeting the lovely friends you've made...I am thinking Carlo's singing career is just taking off....thanks, for another wonderful video....ciao!

[@ber9313]

I love that Carlo and his friend were singing together. That song Oi Marie reminds me of my dad. He would sing that to me when I was a girl. I used to cover his mouth because I didn't know what a gift I had to have a dad that sang to me.

[@DIANEWEATHERFORD]

……and you’re home! I anxiously waited for every video! Carlo, you are a joy to watch. Singing, dancing, and being so sweet to your beautiful wife! All men should be as loving as you are to your wife, and your life! Can’t wait for the next video! Keep on being joyful!

Absolutely have loved your entire vacation... thank you for taking all of us along! Loved seeing Carlo singing and dancing... haha. 💞

Marie is so much fun. Lovely couple. Strangely, Italians don't speak much English. Petrol has now become quite expensive here in Australia.

Welcome back home, dear people. Was so nice traveling with you. It seems to me that with all yours love and attachment to magical Positano - something is brewing in Nicky's heart concerning those awfull 500 steps. Have I noticed some envy towards the Flat Lands dwellers you have visited? Mmm... Anyways, keep climbing - at least for us...

[@sugarbomb26]

A beautiful journey! But I loved most when you returned home. Your home warms my heart more than any pretty hotel, unusual beach or adventure. I don’t know why, but I find it comforting seeing you hanging out in your house, chatting on the swing, watching Carlo pottering in the garden. This makes me feel like life is normal, even though I know our lives and everything we cherish has being upturned.

[@veronicaromaine3061]

Carlo-OMG🤣🤣🤣Love you guys!

[@triplet3023]

Thanks again. This was a fantastic video, so full of information. I am going to research all the information you shared. Great to see your home and yard again. Loved the singing, the places you stayed (people looked to be a lovely as the two of you). I look forward to every Sunday just for your videos.

[@Jana-wz7dr]

Love the side trips you have taken, allowing us a glimpse of lovely areas. The marble beach was crazy beautiful. The giant perfectly fitted slabs of rock that Carlo pointed out really makes you think.

[@charlottedickens7713]

I feel like I've been on holiday... so many new adventures... Carlo and Lorenzo singing... brilliant although I was going to say don't give up your day job but Carlo already has lol ..back to reaity now which to be fair isn't that shabby in Positano, but unpacking those bags... oh my ! where to start? great vlog...xx

[@angelrays7]

My dog heard Carlo singing and woke up from his sleep…. Lol 😂 I got a look.

[@LunaGuinevereStudio]

Welcome back!! It would be a unique experience for me if I am able to visit a country different from our own, I live in the Philippines and we don't have any neighboring countries that can be traveled by land :( We still have to board a plane so it's really expensive and things can get pretty boring here easily but I love our tropical weather :) I'd love to travel to Europe someday especially go to Italy and France hehe, cheers!

[@donnao6006]

I have thoroughly enjoyed these adventurous vacation videos of England, France and Italy. Your father was delightful! I am always so amazed how calm Holly is. She just goes with the flow. Thank you Nicki and Carlo!

[@susanwoodward7485]

Fantastic - loved Carlo singing and dancing - great fun!

[@TubeTunni]

Oh "Casa Colomba" looks like a lovely place to stay. Last time we were in that area we stayed at a hotel in Montecatini which was a beautiful spa town and we loved it. If this pandemic passes and we can travel again we plan to do London to Rome overland and will pass by this area so have saved the details. The beach of marble is amazing there, I guess it is close to the Carrara marble mine east of La Spezia. The Amaifi coast is lovely, we haven't been to Positano but have been to Capri, Naples, Pompeii and Sorrento, so we have had a taste of your beautiful area. Its nice you can both be together more now and travel together.

[@barbaralent5559]

Hello Nicki and Carlo, lovely being on vacation but nothing like coming home is there. What a wonderful trip you had and taking us along for the ride how lucky are we, thank you❤️. What a daunting task getting all your goodies up the steps back to home nice you had a little help Carlo is back in his garden not wasting any time lol! As for Holly shes one pampered little baby everyone she meets loves her and she walked her little legs off this vacation well done baby girl. Although I think Holly is alright where ever she is as long as you guys are with her. Again thank for for my vacation I enjoyed it immensely looking forward to more on Positano Diaries. Much love from Queensland, Australia❤️❤️

[@marisaraoul6667]

What a beautiful journey you had. I can’t wait to visit Vicospano one day…it’s not far from where I’ve purchased my tiny Tuscan house, which I’m yet to see because of the pandemic. Your friend’s house looks stunning…I will definitely keep it in mind. I loved seeing Carlo so relaxed, singing and dancing with your friends. They seem like such fun loving people but when Carlo yelled out “Positano my love” at the end, that really touched me, as there’s nothing like returning to the place that most captures your heart and soul. Welcome home to you all and thank you for sharing with us! 🥰💖

[@MarlaG3180]

Welcome home! I’m watching from Massachusetts and I just got in from cleaning up after a snowstorm where we had 24” (.61 meter) of snow. Just pulled together a plate of prosciutto, burrata, olives, tomatoes and focaccia for lunch and am watching you, wishing I was there!

Hi JT, I'm Carlo, thank you, I know very well that I am incredibly out of tune, a bad dancer, and my English language is very poor, that I often speak, and behave in an inappropriate way, and often think I should change, or improve , but despite this, I continue to be myself because I like it, I enjoy it, and because that's how I really am!😁🤩😘

Home sweet home, what a beautiful trip both of you and your kids had. Wondering knowing your dad's history and what he has accomplished in his lifetime, seeing parts of the U.K, and then going through the mountain region of France, seeing many old and abandon villa's from the 18th century, still standing, and stopping by and staying the nigh for a rest and touring the area, and singing of love among great friends, and finally casa mia! Holly looked very happy! Thank you for the free trip. It was wonderful! P.S. Would a 3 wheel cart help you to take things up those 500 steps?

Lovely Nicki just wonderful - I watched your hole trip and loved the scenery, the stop overs etc. Places to defintly visit on our trips down to Provence that is for sure, and I can always share our places for you to visit next time. We reside in Provence from April - November, within the limits of the 90 day rule, for now, but will be applying for residency soon. I would be lovely to meet you in person one day ! I am on a mission to start a chanel and will keep you posted on that. Keep them coming, I just love to tune in to your episodes. Thankyou also for all the work you and Carlo puts into making them.
