- PALERMO SOLO TRIP | My First Time in ITALY
I finally got to travel to Italy and I did it solo! I visited Palermo, the capital of Sicily. It was such a lively city full of friendly faces, beautiful architecture, and street food all throughout the busy streets. It was such an amazing experience to travel solo and it is something I'll never forget. Have you ever traveled solo? I would love to hear your experience. Thank you for all your support and lovely comments.

I am a new subscriber, and I just want to say that you are my new favorite vlogger! I love your style of vlogging and your personality. Can't wait to watch more vlogs
Wow Dana! This truly means so much to me. Comments like this are what keep my husband and I creating each week so thank you so much for your support. This truly made my day🥰 Have a lovely week.
@@SamFournier Of course, I am so glad! You as well
It can be extremely strange solo traveling in such a bustling city but I definitely think you owned it and managed to see so much of what Palermo has to offer! You are brave Sam, come back and visit Sicily again soon! 🥰
Wow! Thank you so much, that truly means a lot to me🤗 I definitely will be back ❤️
So beautiful and i'm so happy that you're traveling and seeing parts of the world not everyone has seen. Have fun my L.A. friend!!!
Thanks Rocco! It’s such a blessing.
Great video. My son and I are just back from Palermo two weeks ago after staying there for a week. Love the place.
I would love to be able to return and explore more. I hope you and your son had an amazing visit!
Really cool, I didnt see that one. France and Italy are sisters. Both share the same love of art, architecture, gastronomy, good wine, music, quality of life. We have so much in common. Thanks for this share.
Paul, don't worry, it will be for the next time with you! :)
So glad you were able to watch. Paul was definitely jealous 😂
Everything looks so great! 😍
The videography is perfect and of course love what you do! That Banyan tree must be at least 150 years old! I have lots of catching up to do , I've only seen half of your videos. Merci beaucoup Sam!
Thank you so much, I do have tons of videos. Those trees made me so happy, they made me feel at peace. I really appreciate your support, it truly means a lot.
Wow beautiful beach
Enjoy and stay safe
Thank you, I’m back home and exploring a different part of France. Thanks for watching.
So beautiful! The buildings, the trees, the farmer's market, HLP's farmers market doesn't even come close. Thanks for taking us along your beautiful trip. And that guy photo bombing! Classic! Love you!
The market was amazing, I’m always in shock how beautiful the fruits and veggies are.
We travelled to Sicily two years ago for my wife's birthday and our annivesary. We spent 10 days travelling around the island. There's so much to see! Highly recommend Catania and the east coast.
When you go back be sure to rent a car and spend more time there. :)
There are a lot of Scilian dishes that are 'accidently' vegan and the food is a mixture of so many different cultures. We thouroughly enjoyed it there. We enjoyed how unique the food was.
And, yes, definitely a chaotic place at times!
The driving there is crazy, I would definitely need to go back with Paul as I don’t drive. I really wanted to visit more areas. Spending 10 days exploring must’ve been so lovely.
@@SamFournier it was great but went by so quickly! Having a car really makes getting to interesting places easier. A smaller car is a good idea too for those hill top towns. We ended up with a small SUV which was great but was interesting at times!
When you make your way to Santorini I recommend getting a small car there as well. Even if it's just a day.
For both places I'd recommend going in cooler months as well. We went to both in August as that's when those dates are. Big mistake! So hot!
Beautiful I love Italy.
Congrats of been so brave Love you much.
Me too, can’t wait to go back. Love you too💗
This seems to be a charming place, I hope I can visit sometime in the future when all this is over. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much! And please keep up the great job!
Thank you so much, I hope you get the chance to travel here!
I'm really enjoying your trip and Palermo is a very beautiful place. You did very good on your blog!!!! Thanks for sharing this view of the city!!!! I'm really glad you enjoyed your time there. One place I never been. Say Hi to Paul, Sam. You take care of yourself my friend 😃. Your Biggest fan from Pasadena, CA 😎. Keep Rocking the vlogs🎸🎸🎸🎸 and stay strong 💪 too!!!!!
Thanks Art, Paul and I send our love. We miss our Pasadena neighbors❤️
Im jealous i wasn’t there!! Looked so much fun
One day baby❤️
I've solo travelled quite a bit, and love and recommend it!
It’s so awesome to hear that so many people be solo travel. I definitely want to do it again. Thanks for watching.☺️
Hello I like your video, but you missed a lot of beautiful stunning features Palermo can offer you. Come back soon. Enjoy your trips and stay safe !
I hope to return and be able to explore more. Thank you for watching.
I would love to solo travel someday! You did an excellent job vlogging all by yourself :)
Thanks Stephanie, I hope you’ll be able to experience solo traveling soon.
@@SamFournier | Yep, even without -Paul- an assistant cinematographer, you did excellent work. 😄
@@vdayucla thank you🥰
Beautiful 😻 you did great by yourself. Love the doggies, love the editing of street cart ride and music really put me in the mood. 🇮🇹
Thanks Jackie! It was a bumpy ride but so much fun.
Nice vlog and good video. Liked and subscribed. Take care
Thank you so much for watching and subscribing💕
My pleasure! We have a vlog too. We are a Swiss family living in the UAE. Don’t hesitate to have a look and subscribe if you like it. Have a nice day!!!
Its very pretty there. I wish I could have reached in and got some vegetables and fruit. They looked delicious!
I think that big tree you were hugging was a rubber tree.
I was in love with those trees, seriously brought happy tears to my eyes!
Love watching your vlogs Sam, nice shots of the city and the background music.
Thank you for watching and I’m so glad you enjoyed coming along.
Hi Sam… your solo trip was beautiful… I loved the fruit/veg market, the trees were beautiful and yes, you always find your fur baby friends on every vlog😊…very adventurous to travel on a solo trip… thank you!❤️
Thanks Sheila! I do always manage to find some Furiends on my trips🐕
I am going to Sicily solo in September! Landing in Palermo for 4 days and then heading to Cefalu. It's great to see another female solo traveler in this part of the world, I have been searching RUclips high and low for Sicily Solo travel videos - not much content out there. Thanks for sharing!! If you have any tips for me that would be great ;)
PS. You're brave to be a Vegan in Sicily - haha!
How awesome, so glad to hear from someone else who will be traveling there solo. I hope you have an amazing experience. Everyone is super friendly I would just be cautious of people pick pocketing like you would in any big city.
Great video! I love Italy!! Please return and keep taking us with you! Also can you give the names of the places you visit, churches ,museums, markets, etc. Thank you! Safe travels!
Thanks for coming along Teresa, I hope to visit different parts of Italy while I’m here living in France. I don’t remember the church but the Art Gallery was called Palazzo Abatellis and the Market is called Ballarò Market. 😊
Hi Sam you're trip in Palermo was interesting and so smooth. Hope you enjoy 👍😍👋. Next time Sardinia...But Paul have to respond to your vlog😁😉 is the honour of France🇨🇵 ... Carry on Sam you making good 👍
Thanks so much Darius
Loved watching this! I’m going to Palermo by myself in June and was wondering if you could tell me the name of the little beach area you visited?❤️🇮🇹
Thanks Hannah, enjoy your time there! I went to this cafe, and that is where the beach was. www.nautopalermo.it/
@@SamFournier thank you!❤️
I travel many years by myself and it’s the most relaxing liberating thing. Feels like a treat for myself. Wake up and make my own plans. Go with the flow. Palermo it was my last trip September 2019 just before the pandemic starts. I wanted to stay longer and explore Sicily but I said” I’m gonna come back next year” . Lesson learn. Live for the moment 🤷♀️
I’m so glad I took the leap and went solo, it is truly a liberating feeling and I look forward to my next outing. I hope you get to go back and explore Sicily. This pandemic has taught us all something.
Wow Palermo looks stunning 😍 Also HATE when coffee is too hot to drink… one of the worst feelings 😭
It was a lovely city with beautiful people.
How do you pick your restaurants? Or places to visit? Is there a yelp or another app?
I use an app called Happy Cow that shows me local vegan restaurants or just walk around and look at all the menus. Sadly we don’t have Yelp😭
Great vlog Sam! Palermo looks beautiful! I love independent travel too - when I get the chance that is, as my bf likes to come everywhere! 😂❤
Thanks Hannah! Paul and I like to go everywhere with one another too, haha. But I’m really glad I had this opportunity ❤️
Hi can I get the name of the cafe by the beach where you had your breakfast? I am going to Palermo in a week and I will be by myself as well......:)
I hope you have an amazing time in Palermo! The place is called NAUTOscopio Arte. Here is the website www.nautopalermo.it
Went to visit my son Shawn up to Oregon without Kathy,it was weird. It was my son's Graduation and she left on vacation while I was working. I guess we aren't used to it at times. But if it comes to that,we learned a lot from ourselves. Independent helps us in the long run,I suppose!!!!
I definitely agree!
Great vlog. 12 € for a Spritz, Ouch! I was in Crete (Greece) last month, the price for a Spritz goes from 5 to 8 €. If you're looking for a destination with sun, nice beaches, good food, friendly people, think about Greece.
Yeah, some spots in Aix are pretty pricey on their drinks. I would love to visit Greece one day, definitely sounds like paradise.
where did you stay?
Hi Sarah! I stayed at NH Palermo Hotel.
Do they require proof of vaccination to travel within Europe?
Yes, you have to have something called the pass sanitaire that shows your vaccinated or have a negative Covid test within 48hrs.
Is it easier to understand the italian language than french?
Yes, I found it easier to understand although I was still a little lost haha
I was last week in palermo.. nice Nightlife Many bars Restaurants.. nice old barock house styles.. But dirty as fuck.. at day you see all the garbage in the streets.. i Dont Understand why !! Beauftiful womens there.
But the Most Personal in bars are very arrogant .. but for 2-3 days is okay there
I do agree that there is a lot of trash on the streets but I still think it’s a beautiful city.
