[about me]
Hi my name is Rosie, I'm 26 and my life is a bit confusing so i'm writing this lol.
To make it easy:
- I was born in Northern Italy, in the region of Veneto
- My whole family still lives there (mom, dad and my little sister Marty)
- I moved to Toronto, Canada, at 19 all alone to ✨find myself✨ (spoiler: it didn't work, i got more lost if anything)
So, I live half my life in Italy and half my life in Canada.
Also, my mom is from Moldova (country in Eastern Europe) and my dad is from Calabria (region in Southern Italy) and both my grandmas still live there. So you’ll occasionally see me going there as well.
I hope this clears things up a bit.. or maybe makes them more confusing lol.
I don’t know, i tried 😄

That video of your Nonna cooking is my favourite food related video ever. The sunshine, the food, Italy. I have watched it many times.
Mine too, I've watched it over 5 times 😅
Same🙋🏻♀️
Me too
Yeah, glimpse of Mediterranean childhood.
Me too! Xxx
It's very refreshing to see someone so relatable (who is actually relatable) on yt. I'm the same age as you and recognize myself in a lot of things that you say. It's also really cool I think how you stay true to yourself and aren't "embarrassed" to say certain things, like not having many friends etc
Omg..so truee😅😅😅this is the case with myself too
My thoughts exactly.
She reminds me of my daughter 🥰
Stay true to yourself sweetheart!
i have been struggling with eating disorder (first anorexia then bullimia) for almost 15 years now, on and off , and you have no idea how watching someone eat normally and peacefully like you do helps me deal with my mental struggles. I hope that one day i could have a healthy relationship with food like yours!!
This 🙌🏻
Try living like this, move to another country if necessary, countries in South or central America, or the south of Italy and Spain live just like this, they don’t care about diet culture and beauty standards, they live in the present and enjoy life and food to the fullest, btw they’re really kind and warm, even to foreigners
Hope you can live a healthy and happy life, life is beautiful if you learn to enjoy it
Hugs from Peru 😊
Beautifully written. I hope you're doing okay?
“when i work out…i feel depressed” a MOOD. haha i love how real you are i think we all do 🤎 cannot wait for the future content rosie! x
Geez never thought i would see a more genuine and raw video like this is RUclips. You really deserve 1M subs.
Oh my god, I do not like to comment very often, but soooo many of the things you say I can understand so well.. the anxiety thing, the having to go somewhere else to start all over and soo many other "little" things you say. I really feel we have so much in common! So I'm happy to be able to watch your videos. Anyway I think you are such a lovely, sweet person, I'm really glad that I found your channel :D (but actually a bit sad that you are living this far away because I'm in Italy very often :P). Wish you the best! :)
Thank you so much for your kind words 💗 wishing you all the best as well!
QUIT, QUIT, QUIT!! Do what is your passion! ( I am 52 yrs old and I feel I wasted my time overthinking and worrying instead of just going for what I truly wanted) The more content you make the more ppl will watch. I LOVE your channel but after a while I forget! the more you post the more I am willing to watch religiously. You are real and raw and truly we love that about you! whatever you decide I will keep supporting you. Much love from Cali
I can't believe you said you have such anxiety. You seem so confident in your videos! I appreciate you being so honest about your mental health issues. It is nice to see the real side of people and see that perfect people are real.
Hi Rosie! I’m too an INFP and understand social anxiety as an sensitive person. Thank you for sharing a bit more of yourself! I’m excited for the travel vlogs ❤️
I’m also an INFP and relate ❤
sameee!!!
I’m 41 and have kids half your age 😊 but I find you so endearing and relatable in the sweetest way. And I love your nonna 💜
You cannot imagine how much I love this video. I've never related to someone this much I literally feel like I was watching myself talk in the mirror, I have social anxiety and I'm introverted, I have also been living abroad since starting university, I love the same shows and my family is also the most important thing in my life. Feels nice to see someone else go through the same thing. Whenever I tell people that I live alone in another country, they automatically guess that I must be extroverted, super independent (well I am but because I kinda have to), when in reality every day I feel like I have zero social skills and I'm this awkward person. I would really like you to do a video about social anxiety or dating as an introvert. Keep up with the videos, whether they're chatty ones or just vlogs, I always found them very calming
I don't comment a lot but i just need to tell you, your canadian vlogs are not at all boring ! They are really relaxing? Your video of Italy made me discover your channel, but your energy and the way you film is so relaxing to me, it's really comforting. Now, listening to your answers i really understand why! I relate to a lot of what you said. I also lived for a while in Canada (but Montreal) and NYC (as a gap year before university) coming from Europe, and i totally understand not knowing what to respond to "what's up" and feeling like you need to relearn your social skills, you feel awkward and the "chitchat"/what make social interaction "smooth" was so hard for me in that language and culture. So it was way harder to bond, which when you are anxious&introverted is already such a challenge ! I relate to anxiety and depression, and being away from friends and family, my social anxiety was at its peak when i was away (even though i was also really happy to be there, but it's so scary it doesn't help!) i had moments of agoraphobia over there which i never had before. But it's also those experiences that had impact and helped to shape me later on. I relate to a lot of the other things you said, it made me so happy, i understand even better why i loved watching your videos, i have the same myers briggs type as you, i love gilmore girls, i have a similar aesthetic and music style and your style of videos really remind me of youtubers that bring me peace like TheCottageFairy or Jonna Jinton so is so special that you appreciate their videos as well! Continue your videos the way you are making them, the truest to your own self, i promise it's not boring, and thank you very much for making them, they bring me comfort and i love discovering your culture (and fooooood :))))))
your comment describes exactly how I felt moving here! knowing that I'm not the only one that experienced all these feelings makes me feel so much better. thank you so much for sharing and for all the nice words 💗 it truly means a lot
Yes indeed. I love all the vlogs. I love the way she talks. I totally get her vibe
girl, i am solid 10 years older than you, but i can still totally relate to your experience of moving away from home to a foreign country, not speaking (or just not getting) the language, the culture and missing your family and yet still not regretting the whole exerience. moving away from home takes a lots of courage, it teaches you a lot about the life and you learn to be independent in a way you would never have learned, if you had stayed back home. i love your videos. they always make my day. keep doing good work and stay safe :)
Gosh, I think I'm so impressed by this video, cos we have so similar background in past. Thank you for telling us your thought with openness and hope you will feel better after receiving how many people same as you.
I Love how open you have been in this video, thanks for sharing your experience and personal life with us! I kind of did a similar thing, moved to the UK by myself when I was 18 and started building my life there, I felt you when you said you feel lonely sometimes, it was hard for me too especially when I was sick! Love your personality Rosie, you remind me a lot of Bonnie Wright Vlogs because of how calm and kind you are xx (please take it as a super compliment) wish you the best!
"something about living in Italy is a whole vibe that I can't explain" 100% agree. I was just thinking about that the past weeks after I returned from Italy and you put it into words perfectly.
We love you Rosie! You have such a genuine soul. Can't wait to see more of your videos! Love from Australia 🥰
I found your RUclips channel last night and I haven’t stopped binging. Kudos to you and I wish you all the best. Sei brava!!
rosie you are so special, you have such a chill vibe and your opinions and the way you speak and edit are so fair, sensible and well thought idk lol
bring us to hang out in canada and show anything you want, you would make boring super fun
tell more about the differences between canada and italy
really really hoping soon you can work youtube fulltime!
Would love to hear more about your college experience and about the differences of the educational systems in Canada & Europe in your opinion. :)
It’s sooooo nice getting to know you more!! I love your content & look forward to it! 🤍🤍
I'm so happy I found your channel! I also moved to Canada by myself a couple of years ago for similar reasons and it's been really hard dealing with social anxiety as well. It's so comforting to see you talk about your experience, reminds me we're all doing our best. Thank you for the great honest content!
I am so excited for you to create more content on youtube and instagram. I really vibe with your personality ! All the best !
Honesty! beautiful!!i love that you answer to every question,you are so sweet and as all we love italy vlogs!!Kisses from Greece ❤️❤️❤️❤️
You’re definitely past 100k subscribers now! I’m a new subscriber and I love your videos! Thanks for sharing your life and travels with us! 💕 Sending love from North Carolina USA 🤗
You’re so honest, it’s very refreshing ☺️
Hiii I love your content👌🏼 really calming and refreshing.Can't wait for italy vlogs.The way you've shared all of your favourite youtube channels is soo nice of you.It shows how one should not spread negativity and jealousy rather promote healthy competition👏🏼.
girl I just found your channel and im obsessed, you are so authentic and relatable, I'll be here watching your channel grow with you and your dreams!!!
This is the most genuine video I have ever watched. Keep up the good work 👏🏾
Thank you for that message at the beginning 🙏🏽❤ I think about them everyday. I wish they could be safe and just sleep peacefully
I didn’t knew why I felt an instant connection with you from the very first video I watched on your channel. Now that I found out you originate from Moldova, everything makes sense ✨ 🇲🇩
So thankful for your page. You radiate beauty, light and are so relatable ❤️
Finding motivation from a tv show isn't stupid at all! I think a lot of people get inspiration from music and entertainment, myself included, and it really helps!
Please continue making content your videos help me calm down my anxiety. It would be nice to see a video about your college experience and about your bunnies. Thanks!! You have a lot of great potential!!
As I watched your video of Italy it reminded me of my neighborhood in Argentina ( I was born in a Italian neighborhood with the most beautiful nonnas and OMG the food!!!) The influence of your culture on my country made me love Italy so much… I can’t wait to visit the country of my dreams one day…. I study in USA management in digital business as well . So happy I found your channel.!!!
I just wanted to say i absolutely love your videos you’re very authentic and that’s amazing.. your content is enjoyable and fun so thank you xx
Ce tare ca stii si limba romana! Felicitari pentru vloguri si mult succes in tot ce intreprinzi. Hugs from Transilvania, Ro😘
I looove your videos, even the ones in Canada. You are so calming and interesting to watch
Love you already! Although I found your channel thanks to your nonna, your straightforward and authentic personality is what caught me
thank you Rosie for sharing a q+a, love your videos and seeing your life and family! very calming videos and genuinely fun vlogs ✨
appreciate ur talk of “rich assumption” too. there are many individuals and families who are in the ultra wealth class in the $billions, amass so much power and actively cause harm to the working/middle class,
please reserve your criticality for the globally rich/elite and how they impact society. middle class, people who are doing ok, getting by enough, whose families have surpassed hardships to be where they are today - they are not the enemy
It’s so relaxing and very blessed to have grandma.
I had no grandparents on both sides growing up 😞 always wish I had to teach me things.
Wow I love how upfront you are about your mental health struggles, really inspiring. It's a "taboo" subject in so many areas of life, unfortunately.
The life style in Italy with your family feels supportive. I wish you many blessings ❤️🌹❤️
I enjoy your videos. I’m American living abroad in Italy. It’s interesting watching other peoples’ experiences living abroad. Also, I enjoyed your Italy vlogs. I’m still trying to adapt here as well. 🙂
You remind me so much of myself when I was your age, I’m a lot older now and love your uploads very much they relax me from stress at work or life in general Grazie !
Thanks for doing this video. i really understood a lot of how you are feeling and it's nice to hear someone share some things that are very relatable and true life.
this video was so fun, i love your channel and learning more about you as a person! I cant wait to watch more italy vlogs this summer
Thank you for opening up to us and please know that you're loved by us all ❤
ah thank you so much for answering my question 🥺 i'm a huuuuge studio ghibli fan and i was already thinking your fav might be my neighbour totoro! i for myself love this one so much too, i think it has the prettiest landscape animations :]
You are such a sweet girl!
I love when you cook, and when you showed your family cooking as well.
Take care & God bless.
i’m an infp as well! ur videos are so nice and calming i can’t wait for more! 💖
Not many people have the courage to move to a different country & do all that you have accomplished already. It’s pretty spectacular be proud of yourself okay. We really enjoy your channel, especially your travels around Italy. It allows us to enjoy parts of Italy that we may never see.. thank you.❤
I’m an Indonesian currently living in Italy and used to live in Japan and Indonesia as well. I totally agree when you said that living in Italy has its own unexplainable vibes, it’s just amazing
You truly are the cutest!
Love your videos so glad I found your channel♥️
2:38 i just love this part, just more likely what our situation rn. i love hearing your stories, rosie. all of it
I just discovered Rosie by accident lol and I just love your vibe dude! I'm 23 and from Toronto so it's so good seeing another girl in my "area" putting themselves out there on RUclips! You should do a meet up when you're back in Toronto 😊
Do u have instagram
OMG!! I relate so much with GLEE giving you motivation!!🤍
I loved your Toronto Island vlog, dont worry about your vlogs being boring, theyre not! I also loved seeing you cook in your apartment in canada!
Thank you so much for supporting me and my country!!! This is so important for us and we are so grateful for everyone who support light and freedom in this world. Thank you a lot❤
I’ve been binge watching all your YT videos since last night I wish you reach 1 millions subscribers really soon! ❤️
I love your vlogs
You always inspire me ,
I always look forward to watching your vlogs !
That's so kind he let you decorate it. How sweet.
Loved watching your Nonna cooking for you and the family. So warm to my heart. And inspiring and interesting. Cooking and eating together keeps the family close. Even though i live far from my Parents thats how it use to be when we all lived together. Keep up the good work vlogging. Love it❤
started watching your videos some weeks ago and i can't believe how relatable and amazing they are, thank u so much for sharing your journey with mental health, just know that you are loved and your vlogs are amazing, italy looks so beautiful (i also love glee and taylor swift with my whole self lol) love from chile, south america :)
I love your videos so much please never stop making them 💋
omg i love taylor swift as well
Scorpio is a great sign...you are so talented with a great eye...keep going with the videos they're great...
Nothing about your RUclips channel is boring even in Canada!Just being true to yourself is refreshing !
Thank you so much for sharing you and you’re families experiences. ❤
Che bello scoprire la tua storia! Sono super curiosa di vedere i video con le tue nonne e apprezzo molto la tua genuinità dicendo le cose come stanno senza edulcorare nulla. Mi piacerebbe vedere un q+a insieme al tuo ragazzo magari in futuro! 😊
Your channel beams light ❤ so happy you crossed my path.
Me too I just love her realness it’s very rare in this generation
Yes!! Especially about mental health. Being so accepting about social anxiety is so inspiring.
I'm in Canada and you convinced me that I should move to Italy. Also , your English is perfect. You sound like a native.
Sir. I live in United States, and I couldn't agree with you more.
Just a few days ago, I began watching your videos, and I can't stop! They give me such comfort. I really identify with your lifestyle because I'm from Portugal, my boyfriend is from Moldova, and we both live in Denmark. Watching your videos gives me the feeling that I'm home on vacation. 🤍
I also love Howl's moving castle and Totoro! These are my favorite too. Finally, we have something in common. I also find Italy lifestyle very fascinating compared to our South East Asian lifestyle !Keep up your good work! I'll be rooting for you!
Ești frumoasă, deșteaptă și cu bun simț! De-asta m-am abonat la canalul tău.Tot ce postezi e calm, frumos și de calitate.❤️
mulțumesc mult pentru cuvintele frumoase💗🥺
@@rosiemaio ❤️❤️❤️
Ești de-a noastră, am mai multe motive să mă uit la video-urile tale :))
Love your videos especially when your in Italy I find them so interesting and love your family so I’m pleased to hear you will go back home eventually to live! I would feel the same way too…I also have really bad social anxiety it’s gotten a lot better since I’ve got older and now I wish I never let it bother me so much! Keep being you…your lovely ☺️
I love your authenticity!!! Just subscribed ❤
I could literally be your mom (my daughter is 24, bday on Oct 31) and I love your videos 😊 like most people I found your Italian food in a week video first and just loved it. Believe it or not you are a very interesting person and your personality shines through 😊 it’s no surprise to me that your videos are so popular !
Very inspiring for me to look at the world differently. very brave to live abroad. Also, I look at food in a healthier way now watching you enjoy those delicious home cooked meals, thank you.
Hahahah you feel depressed after workout, i feel you ... and i thoroughly(?) watched your QnA , it's just wholesome 🙆♀️🙆♀️ happy that we could connect as friends online!!
Great informational video, Rosie! Thanks for sharing from Missouri, USA! 🇨🇦🇺🇸🇮🇹
Your really incredible Rosie
Fellow Swiftie here! Im glad to know Taylor’s music helped you find yourself again, it did for me too, I love your videos and I hope you find happiness wherever you are :)
I'm all for the Italian food videos! Can't wait
I'm new here and I really love your videos you're so authentic. I can't wait to see more of your content
definitely my fav youtuber ever❤️
I totally get that it’s hard for you to adapt to Canadian lifestyle. Having friends and a social life would probably make a major difference in your experience. Which college did you go to? It is true that North American education is very different from Europe, but it also depends on the institution itself, whether it was private or public, for instance, will defo have an impact. Also, if you’re looking to buy property in urban areas in BC or Ontario, then yes, it’s not affordable. But homes in other provinces and in the suburbs on the outskirts of big cities are wayyyyy less expensive. Some of the taxes can be included in your mortgage payment, and the bank takes care of making the payment to your city so you don’t even see those amounts go by. How did you meet your bf if you’re struggling with social anxiety? 🤗 I feel sad that you’re so isolated and hope you find your happiness. 💗
Thank you 💕I went to Humber College and at the time I signed up for it, it was one of the most affordable colleges for international students. I really wanted to go to U of T, which is supposedly one of the best universities in Toronto, but it costs around 60k a year for international students and I sadly couldn't afford it. So I guess I got what I paid for, but I still paid a lot of money at Humber (14k a year on average for four years) so I feel like I wasted my money for a not so great education 🥲 also yes homes are cheaper outside of Ontario but it took me a while to feel like I'm at "home" here and I think that relocating would just be too much for me at the moment. and we met on Tinder four years ago and he just made me feel really comfortable around him from the very start so it was easier in a way. also when I first moved here I was a little more brave and I really tried making friends and meeting people, unsuccessfully 😅which i guess contributed to my sa getting worse and worse the more time passed
Canada is a cold, dark, dismal, depressing, expensive SHat hole with a horrible healthcare system !! Ive lived her my whole life and I still can’t get used to 4 hrs. Of sunshine for 8 month of the year!! Not to mention the debilitating cold and just awful weather!! If you live in ITALY go to Northern California or ANYWHERE in the US!! Anything is better thsn coming to this shit hole.. Not to mention the clown who leads this country!! He was a traveling backpacker and a substitute drama teacher… Now he’s Pm because his father was pm in the 70’s.. He’s a liberal clown.. 🤮
@@West-rn-showvn-ist-chick then try living elsewhere if you’re that unhappy. 🤷♀️
Thecottagefairy is absolutely so amazing!!!
Love your content ❤️
hiii rosie, i really love your videos and i think you're very kind, keep on being autentic and genuine!!!!! un abbraccio forte forteeeeeeee dalla spagna
Hello, well thank you for answering and being so truthful about your answers I first discovered you when you did the video with your nana and I really enjoyed it so I'm looking forward to seeing you back in Italy again I hope things work out for you please don't feel so all alone just so you know I care 😘 even though I've never met you people out there can really be sincere I know we live in crazy times so thank you again for sharing some of your personal life with us looking forward to your video when you go to Italy take care of yourself ❤️
I see a lot of similarities in our life - except I'm from Indonesia and moved to the US for college (I was really lucky to get scholarships and assistantships that paid for my bachelors and masters) and I ended up finding a job here after graduating so I live and work here full time. But just like you, I also went through a period of time where I was really depressed back when I used to live in Indonesia so I totally feel you.
Found you through your video with your Nonna. I didn't know you're in Canada at the moment. I live in a US state that borders Canada. I totally understand what you mean to be close to family. Plus, I didn't realize how expensive houses were in your area in Canada, wow. I hope things will deescalate so you can travel to Moldova peacefully. Subbed, keep the content coming. 💕
What a lovely channel!! Stay genuine 🙏🏽☺️
I love your food content and both your grandmas!
i NEED another week in my life in italy, that is my comfort video and i watch it at least once a week😂
rosie, you are GREAT! keep up the good work, you have a huge potential ❤️
I know saying this is going to sound very superficial, but really try not to compare yourself, it sucks! look for inspirations, but don't compare yourself, you are unique, authentic and your followers like you and admire you exactly as you are!
persist, keep creating a lot of content, I'm sure you will still grow A LOT! but don't limit yourself to youtube, nowadays it is necessary to be present on almost all social medias to reach a larger audience, be strategic and create simpler, more objective and diversified content for instagram and tik tok. don’t be too hard on yourself, don’t try to achieve perfection, it doesnt even exist. your vlog in italy went viral precisely because of its naturalness, as it generated identification. much better than something calculated to have the perfect aesthetic. Anyway, you're wonderful, I'm really rooting for your success.
ps: sorry my english, its not my first language.
Hi Rosie! Really great content! I’m a fellow RUclipsr, 62 now, and also a chef (very old school Italian as well) and I love the ideas I get from your videos. You seem like a great young adult. Keep it up!
Loved the wedding video,I noticed you slept until 4:00 pm . Glad to hear you are getting some sleep 🎉❤
I love your life and your lifestyle reminds me of being in a studio ghibli movie. Very relaxing and family oriented. I think you'll get more subscribers from your content, thank you for sharing yourself with us ❤️.
