In Norway, we pile adults and kids into a truck with sleds, then get driven to the top of a huge hill, the driver drives back down and makes sure no cars head up and we sled down, it takes about 5-8 minutes. Then up again and for as long as we are not too wet or cold, we keep going on slide mattresses and sleds. The most fun ever! Thank you to our driver! ❤
Intertube is fun too... but it's not too steerable! 😉😂
So special to be with family in a location where their Papa grew up, with his Oma, and the cousins. What a loving family you all are. Not forgetting the the delightful Ziggy as well. :::woof::: ❤️
Lucky lucky girls, they probably don’t appreciate it but they will remember when they are older & will have lovely memories ❤
So true. My mother took my sister and me (from the UK) on a skiing holiday in Austria, actually very close to where Philipe and Anna were, on the border of Austria and Italy, when I was seven years old in 1966. I’ve never forgotten it and it started a love of travel which eventually directed me into a career that took me around the world. I now live in south eastern France where I can see the Alpes from my kitchen window and I still often think about that first holiday up there in the snow.
@@Andrew-sy1lx how lovely, my parents took my sister & I all over Europe in the 70’s we were both very spoilt & didn’t realise at the time how lucky we were but we do now & have fabulous memories ❤️
@@paulakershaw5452We were very lucky. Foreign travel wasn’t so common back in those days. Another 60s holiday was a driving holiday through France and Spain which gave me my love of France.
Same here. My parents would go home once per year and sometimes two traveling from Indonesia, through Europe, and back to the mid-west USA. It was easier to go across the Pacific, but less eventful (stopping in Japan one time & Hawaii) ... but going through Europe even at 12 and 13 & 14 I realized I was so lucky. Got bored in Greece once and stayed in the hotel to babysit my younger brother ... but more often than not tagged along for all the sightseeing. @@paulakershaw5452
We used to drive, to see my grandfather, from Wyoming to New Jersey. One year my father pulled the car over and told me if I sang "Yellow Submarine" one more time, I could get out and walk. Lol!
It is a beautiful memory for everyone!
😉😂🤣
Phillips mom did so well, trudging all the way in the snow. Cheers from Canada. We know what that is all about!
No wonder you wanted to share this experience with your girls! Thanks for taking us along. It was stunning. ❤
I always appreciate your music selections so much. They perfectly compliment the scenes.
So True...
Right?!
What a beautiful family memory. They are lucky girls, and so happy for your mom to share it with her granddaughters. A gorgeous corner of the universe, Philipp. Many blessings to all of you. xx
As half French and half German myself, I just understand the phrase "we can Eislaufen" too well :D My siblings and I only speak a mix of both languages, sometimes throwing some English in there because it just helps putting our point across! Teaching your daughters three languages is the best thing you can do! It has helped me so much in my life and makes learning new languages easier as our brains are just wired differently ;)
I now live in Munich and the bavarian/austrian/south tirol cuisine is just one of the best after a good hike!!! Loved seeing you having fun in the snow and creating core family memories
3:33 That made my heart smile to hear that a little girl knows her papa is her hero.
Wishing your family a year of heart warming memories in 2024.
Wow those snow covered mountains are so beautiful !!Thank you for taking us along with you xx
I am shocked no snow. My paternal cousins live in Switzerland in many areas and not much snow so far this year.
Thanks for giving this 72 yr old Iowan in the USA memories of the Alps! Amazingly beautiful 🤩
I love how you push your girls to experience things. They may find it hard now but they will definitely look back on these times fondly. 😊
Having lived my entire life in a Rocky Mountain State, I understand your longing to see your Mountains. I love our mountains, I call them Mothers arms.
That is how I feel about the Colorado Rockies too ...like busting into a John Denver song! We have land near Platoro, Co. I Wish I could get there in winter but it gets snowed in & you have to be prepared to stay all winter... and all the survival knowledge that entails!
My mother was born in Tramin and I have been to Bozen many time..how lovely to see it again thru your eyes. Big hugs from BC Canada❤️🇨🇦
Memories like this stick with you all your life! 62 years ago my dad made me a sledge, necessary because we had one of the worst winters of the 20th century, the winter of 62/63. Our house was snowed up and the drifts were level with my bedroom window. So dad spent all day on my sledge, he finished and said " come on" . He jumped over the wall into the field, and I followed him, but, because my legs were smaller I didn't jump as far and landed in the centre of a roll of barbed wire. I was covered in cuts, needless to say I didn't go sledging that night.😂
Where was this? What country,,how sad you fell into barbed wire, was it on a farm?
@barblallier9413 in the UK and yes we lived next to a farm
Beautiful outdoors! Thank you for sharing, and so glad the girls are growing up wondrous adventures and multiple languages. Thanks for showing Oma, as well! 🎉
Thank you for a wonderful time in the Alps! Happy New Year to your family from ours. May God Bless and keep us all safe in 2024!
Oh Philip and Ana, I love your vlogs but this one made my heart jump! I had the chance to worked in Val Gardena in 2000. I lived in Ortisei and work as a tour guide in the different ski- destinations as Wolkenstein, up to Merano, Reschen-Pass, Schnallstal, Sulden. Your vlog took me back on memory lane, always will remember that view and mountain rig of Val Gardena ❤😍😘
Thank you for sharing this beautiful part of the earth with us and the joy and love of your family. You are very blessed 💗 Prayers to those struggling in this world, wishing peace to all.
The Love energy flowing through your entire family throughout this video is contagious...tears...I have always wanted to experience snow and mountains like this, but the opportunity has never presented...thank you for sharing. Much Love & Blessings from Qld. Australia.💙😇💙
Philipp, thanks for sharing with us some insight as to where you came from. It's now more clear just how you grew from a boy to become such a charismatic, brilliant, and multi-talented man.
Your children may not have enjoyed climbing uphill this time, but I can guarantee that one day, they'll be back, and they''ll love ever second, just like you did. Happy New Year!
Lily definitely takes after her father 😂 And I agree Phillipp, the rainy winters are spirit breaking. Sincerely, someone from the Netherlands who cannot wait to go to the Alps next month.
What gorgious footage of a well deserved winterbreak. It was a joy to watch! 'Gelukkig Nieuwjaar' from The Netherlands.
Nice to see everyone happy sledding. Haven't done that in a million years. lol
Winter Wonderland! Thank you for that wonderful trip around those glorious mountains! The girls and Ziggy looked as if they were fit to bust with excitement!
Absolutely wonderful!!!
Such a multitude of culture. Trilingual girls. Sunshine on the snow. Vegan spare-ribs.
I adore Philipp's humour.
I have been living in Germany for over 40 years now and I find the humour (Schwiezer, Austrian, Süd Tirol, German) so good. So dry and understated. 🙂
A fabulous video. Made me laugh a lot. Thank you.
Your girls are blessed with their multiple and rich heritages… & of course their loving family! What a beautiful part of the world this is with experiences & memories to last a lifetime, especially with the love of their grandmother and Ziggy, forever in these videos! I felt so happy for you all watching this. 🥰 Happy New Year & all the best for 2024!
That was so beautiful, it brought tears to my eyes. Thank you for sharing your childhood home with us too.
❤ from TX!
Your cinematography was a stunning witness to your love for this land ... it truly is magnificent!
HI guys ! What a trip ! I assume the girls forget all about the way up being on the slide for the way down. The landscape is amazing, and as always, so nicelly filmed ! Have a nice holidays.
We are fortunate to live in the Colorado Rockies, but there is something about those jagged peaks in Italy that are breathtaking!
The Dolomites are unesco now
Their vacation was indeed magical. Also those Alps have history and architecture and traditions to match! We have land in Colorado that sadly we hardly ever get to anymore. It's an old abandoned mining claim and the cabin has long ago fallen to pieces ...but the memories of Platoro Reservoir and Lily Pond are still with me. We could only go in the summer, since the state doesn't plow up that far off the beaten track. But we went skiing at other places near Colorado Springs where my dad was born. His high school had skiing as a winter sport!
@@kindlydude food is soo good there too, most cabins on the slopes will have proper delicious meals often times local game/berries or herbs and regional specialties 😋
So special! A real winter wonderland experience for the kids….especially with family. Precious time indeed! Wie schön! Love to you all ❤
What special memories your family will have of this trip ❤
Love, love, love! What a dream trip; and your mom is quite the trooper!
This is one of my favorites! Phillip, your style as a storyteller is one of the things I love so much about this channel. Everything you guys touch you transform into something beautiful. For your girls, your community, and so generously for all of us on the sidelines. Your legacy is becoming more and more stunning with every video. Thank you!
Thank you for taking us along on an adventure that I will never get to do in my lifetime. Even if only virtually. What an amazing place! I have a memory of teaching myself Tyrolese knitting when I was a young girl. I found a pattern at a jumble sale. I made a scarf for my doll. Long time ago now. Thank you for bringing that memory back to me too. ❤❤
How lovely - sledding is so much fun!! Living in Arizona we get the best of both worlds - sunshine and desert along with snowy 4200 meter mountains in the winter. I appreciate that so much
Thank you for giving us a precious memory of your family in the winter Alps.
These girls have a lovely childhood, two incredible parents and loving grandparents. Truly great to see. ✨ Happy 2024✨ Thanks for sharing the joy and humor.
What a precious memory. We are planning a trip to Italy in the fall and the Dolomites are on the list to see. Happy New Year! ❤️😊
Beautiful scenery - no wonder you miss it Phillip. Memories for the girls which they will appreciate when they are older 😊
Thanks for taking me to places I will never get to go! Glad your family had such a wonderful time making memories.
My heart stopped, when I read the name on the sign of the young man that died while picking Edelweiss. He had the same name as my father, Franz Obexer. My father was born in 1926, in Kastelruth. My extended family is from the Bolzano area. I however live on Vancouver Island Canada, and have visited Southern Tirol many times and walked in the footsteps of my fathers youth. It makes me very happy to watch, these videos, when you return to your homeland. I recognize so much of the area, and it makes me incrediblly homesick.
Thanks for showing us this beautiful area.
How touching ❤ thanks for sharing.
Ziggy has the BEST day!🐾🐾❄️❄️
H iAnna & Phillip, Nothing better than spending the holidays with family. And finally some snow! Mark & Scott
This was absolutely beautiful. What memories your children will have. Philip your mother is amazing. The alps …stunning.
I loved every minute of this video!! Wonderful family adventures. ❤
So beautiful! My memories are of driving from Atlanta GA to South Fulton TN to be with grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins and sometimes we even got a little snow. The best days of my young life. The older I get, the more I treasure those days. One of our family sayings is “Making memories!” So happy for you all that you were able to have this special time in such an amazing place ❤
Thank you for taking us on your trip to the Alps. I'll never get to go myself so it was a great experience for me. The girls sure had a good time, an adventure they'll never forget. Thanks again, Kathy USA 🇺🇸
Alles war so schön!!!
(Ich trinke auch meine Schokolade mit Zucker.)
Twice in the 1970's I was able to go w/ my Ambassador Fellowship singles group of 4th Presbyterian Chruch in Bethesda, MD on a ski trip to Austria. We went to Mittersill and stayed at Schloss Mittersill where we skied Pass Thurn (really good) and Kitzbuhel (where the people went to be seen). We even rented the Schloss van to travel to ski Kaprun glacier. What fun. Then we would go to St. Anton in the Arlbergs. Those were trips of a lifetime, although Colorado (where a brother lived) had sometimes better snow as it was colder.
My computer's opening images is set on beautiful photos from around the world. The Dolomites range region is absolutely spectacular.
Lovely until Phillip tries to take you up those mountains!! 😂
@@TranslatorTuber - Yes, poor Ana. She was right when she said, 'where Philip tried to kill her'.
Our family went every year for the winter holidays great memories and something I really miss now living on the other side of the world. The dolomites are one of the most beautiful places in Italy and people love their land there! Also the mountain shacks have amazing food 😋
Do the girls speak Italian as well?
Thank you for sharing the beauty and the fun. I am glad to see you enjoying yourselves and making family memories. God bless you all! And your momma, Philipp.
Ah nothing compares to winter wonderland in the alps. Yes you have gifted the girls a magical experience.
This is the winter here in Ottawa, Canada. Not a mountainous wonderland but usually very snowy in January. It's been very grey and mild. Today we have snow and families are sledding on the hill outside my window.
7:26 Nice Holidays for the whole family! Beautiful scenery. Ann, it is marvelous that the girls speak 3 languages already, very useful in life. I talk from my own experience!
Making wonderful memories how lucky they are to visit such beautiful places, they won't forget.
So magical! I can see the joy on everyone’s faces. A holiday to remember for all! Thank you for sharing your holiday ❤
Wow what beautiful scenery! Would love to go there! And what an adventure for you and the girls!! And sledding down the hill looked like such an amazing experience!!
Love you guys!!!❤
Putting sugar in your hot chocolate is peak kid behavior - my kids would have done it too. What a beautiful day in the snow! The mountains are stunning.
What a magical vlog. Warms my heart to know that you value the memories over physical gifts. ❤
1:41 this reminded me of my mom saying her dad would sing in German when drunk. I remember ol’ Christmas tree story. I never got to meet my German grandfather. Born 2 decades after he passed away. My grandparents never taught us German or Portuguese, grandma was Portuguese. Thank you for sharing family traditions with us. Our traditions were lost when my grandparents “Americanized” themselves. Happy new years.
You can always join a German club where they teach the language and celebrate traditional holidays. That's what I do. My dad spoke Spanish to me when I was a child even though it was a second language for him. We have a German/Dutch last name ... no one can decide. Our known ancestors came from Rotterdam from one branch of the family and from Ireland and France from other branches.... so I feel like I have a connection to all these places in Europe.
A beautuful memory indeed, family and snow ❄️
This was a visual treat!!!! Winter fairy 🧚 land indeed!!! Loved watching every second of this video , Ziggy 🐕 and the girls having fun was a delight to watch👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Holy moly! Driving on snowy, icy, winding roads in the Alps. I guarantee you that from here, at the first sign of ice on the roads, this city shuts down. Sledding looks like a lot of fun. Enjoy your vacation and safe travels to all!
So extraordinarily beautiful! Made me cry - mostly how blessed your daughters are! 🥰
Thank you for sharing. What wonderful memories the girls will have of your trip. Such beautiful scenery. I so want to go there and experience it for myself.
Beautiful filming, it is like a living diary of many happy memories to be treasured by the family forever 🌲 ❄️
...that is such a vivid description of a "Living Diary"!!
How delightful. How fortunate you guys are to have such a magical place to go.🥰🇨🇦
Wonderful trip that's what I call making memories ❤ beautiful litterly postcard views ❤ all the best ❤😊
Very very beautiful, so glad you all got a chance to play in the snow during winter holiday! I, however, grew up on the eastern edge of thr Great Plains in the U.S., just where it goes from perfectly flat to quite hilly. Blizzards, snowdrifts up to your eyeballs, endless shoveling while your hands & toes froze, icy hills, icy winds. It was nice if you were warm & cozy inside, but going outside was often not so much fun. Where I live now, it snows only once or twice in the winter & generally melts w/in one or 2 days, except for the one winter where we had 18 inches & then 12 more in a day or 2 (roads not plowed b.c there are few snowplows) & my first winter here when there was a massive ice storm that was incredibly magical---partly b/c I'm retired & did not have to go out, though the loss of electricity for 2-1/2 days got a bit chilly! In any case, mant thanks for letting me enjoy the snow with your family from the comfort of my nice, warm living room!
That is almost my exact same experience having moved from Minnesota to Oklahoma! I LOVED their picture-perfect postcard snowy-Alpine Holiday from the comfort of my armchair!!
Amazing landscape! Thanks for sharing your trip to Tirol!
So charming! Absolutely loved this one. Videography was beautiful. What wonderful family memories captured forever! Lovely.
Love this style video! I felt like I was coming along on your family vacation☺️
That was lovely! What a magical place to grow up.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful winter wonderland, I loved it! ❤
FANTASTIC video!!! "The Day He Tried To Kill Me" in the upper right corner made me LOLLLLLL!!!
So nice to see all your travels, Absolutely Beautiful!! When your children are older they will look back with great joy on your family and fun❤
I grew up in snow country like this in the north highlands of Scotland, it was amazing. All my winter memories were in the dark given the few hours of daylight we had each winter. In the summer we had almost no dark nights either. We used to dig trenches from one house to the other and mum would climb out of the window to shovel snow from the door ! We had no central heating, not much insulation, simple army blankets with a hot water bootle and one small fire where mum warmed up our clothes before we went off to school, after a big plate of porridge of course ! We sledded gloveless well into the night, it was a great childhood, I pity young kids today. Wonderful memories you are making ! xoxoxo
God it’s such an incredible artist!! 😍♥️ Just stunning landscape!
Indeed!!!
Hurray, a coat for Ziggy!! Next ,he needs neoprene dog in snow booties/shoes to prevent frostbite... on big river for $23-35!
Oh yeah und wie!Mein Vizsla hat auch mit all seinen Zähnen geklappert und gezittert ohne🧥 Jacke 😇seit367Tage über 🌈🐾😔🥰
Beautiful winter landscape shots! Just love your getaways with the girls, their grandmother, and Ziggy (what a lucky dog!).
In the Dutch/German tradition, we too celebrate Christmas on the eve! Great family! Love their candle-lit tree! Really, it all looks so wonderful! So nice that you spent the extended day in the winter mountain park!🤩❤🙏🏼
I love Lily's sassyness! She wants to be rich to buy a motorbike and she doesn't have a super papa... Well, Lily in a few years you won't even remember about the motorbike and you'll be certain that you've got a super papa💕
The snow is beautiful. Looks like you had a wonderful Christmas. Love how your girls can switch languages.
Such an amazing holiday ❤
There's nothing like snow glistening in the sun like a field of diamonds! It's one of my favorite winter treasures living in Minnesota, USA. Have you guys ever gone tubing down a snow covered hill? Instead of a toboggan with blades, you sit on a huge tire innertube. My grandkids love it! Some Ski Resorts offer tubing and skiing choices in the US.
This is such a wholesome video. Indeed the best holiday gifts are memories like this, and being aquainted with the alpine landscape is a gift that will be very meaningful in their lives. So great seeing also Ziggy run free and joyous in the mountains! We've had an unusually cold winter in Sweden but the weather is about to change a bit and get warmer. It's been around -15 C in Stockholm and in the largest capital up north (well below the arctic circle and Scandic mountains mind you) it's been around - 34 this past week, and no dogs but polar breeds can stand that cold for more than it takes them to poo at best.
The Alpes are a whole different ballgame with much more daylight and sun, snow but still lovely temperatures given you're dressed appropriately.
Here in Stockholm I don't mind the cold and the snow is so lovely, but the birds suffer and I try to leave apples, balls of suet and seeds for them around my neighborhood, the pigeons freeze their toes off on their perches ar night if they've too little to eat.
Swans and waterfowl all gather in the channel below the Operahouse where there's a feeding float for them. It's too cold to wear waterbased moisurizer of any kind, but very dry at these low temps. The alpine culture is wonderful and mostly less harsh thanks to the warming sun. I used to go slalom skiing there, loved it! Knödel is a real treat! Been too long... Yum! Connecting with family and ones cultural roots is so important growing up, it's all that matters for the holidays, the entire point.
Beautiful video guys, I wish you a year full of happiness and great adventure, good health and good luck with your projects! Love❤ /Jo
Jo thanks for your kindness with the birds💕
I also feed the birds in Oklahoma, USA. You'd think we wouldn't get too cold being so far south, but we are at a dividing line & the weather is very unpredictable. Last year it got below freezing for almost a week and the electricity went out! Fortunately, we have a fireplace.... I always think of the creatures that come to rely on us like the squirrels and birds and even the foxes in my neighborhood. When I lived in Minneapolis, Minnesota which gets VERY cold indeed I used to wonder why such a large contingent of Canadian geese did not migrate to the south. People took it upon themselves to feed them grain, especially around the numerous lovely city lakes..... where inevitably there would be warming houses and hot chocolate for the ice skaters on the lakes. The Alps have a magic all their own... it is lovely to go there virtually with this lovely family!
@@kindlydude it is nice to hear that there is kind conscious lovely people everywhere... Thanks!
This was so beautiful Phillip. Your girls and Ziiggy had such a fun time. Hi Anna.
What beautiful scenery looks so much fun on the sledges lovely memories ❤
It's so beautiful there and I love that you all got to go and take some time with the girls. Have a wonderful week and thank you for sharing your video. I would bet that you have so many great memories of this place Phillip. Nice that the girls will have memories too and of course, Ziggy! (from Sandi)
How absolutely magical 💖. Your girls will never forget these days ❣️
So einer wundervolle Reise fur die Kinder.
Breathtakingly beautiful. What a treat to see the Alps! Thank you for sharing!
What a beautiful area you grew up in!! Thanks for taking us with you!
H! Sweet childhood memories of Shenna, Bozen and the Seiser Alm.❤
Oh my, what a fun family trip. The scenery was outstanding. I'm glad Ziggy got to tag along, with the rest of us. Happy New year to you and yours and to us all.
