@Malini.Angelica I know, very random question, but where do you shop? You manage to look fabulous and incredibly comfortable on your travels which isn’t always easy. I travel a lot and get tired of the same leggings routine
300 years of arabs doesnt make sicily arab. The greeks were in sicily and south italy from antiquity till 1400 ad aka the middle ages. They are propably greeks not arabs. South italians cluster with greeks in dna tests not with arabs.
How could you eat bloody horse !! My God, terrible 😪 thay are not italian period thay have their own delicate! That's why thay are on there own island by themselves! My dad from Calabria italian 100 %
"In Catania we have a lot of problems except the food" LOL I love this. I was just in Catania and, as an Italian, I have to say you did an amazing job at capturing the vibrant essence of the market!
I love how she mixes different languages (portuguese, spanish, with italian) and still gets to have a small conversation, I did the same while in Italy because I don't speak Italian well enough 😊
That's how you travel: Just show you are interested and willing to do an effort to understand the other party. Apart from one or two individuals, I've had nothing but smiles and friendly people, be it in Italy, the UK, Tunesia, Iran...
@@LUIS-ox1bvThat’s true but remember she is in Sicily and Sicilian is very different than standard Italian. So when natives speak Sicilian instead of Italian it will be much more difficult to understand. Luckily Sicilians also speak standard Italian, and having a local translator was definitely a plus.
@@LUIS-ox1bv italian and sicilian are not mutually intelligible, for an only italian speaker the only laguages he could probably have a mutal coversation with are spanish and corsicans(corso language not french)
Grew up in Corinth in Greece, it makes me very eager to see where my predecessors build their colony 2800 years ago. Love the country, but there is definitely a greater connection with Sicily. Quite enjoy your programs Angelica.
Loved the video snapshot of the Sicilian south east. I’m Canadian of Italian descent, Le Marche (father) and Calabria (mother). My wife is Canadian of Sicilian descent, Ragusa (father) and Siracusa (mother). We both still have family in our respective regions. I’m 64 and going to Italy and Sicily is on my bucket list, God willing. 🙏🇮🇹🇨🇦
Italy is such a beautiful country and to have it exposed in detail by a beautiful lady is just so invigorating and tempting.. You have a special talent that makes these video's so enjoyable. Thank you...
As I said before Angelica; you have been to many places but somehow, Italy is the country which embraces you the most, making you an intrinsic part of it. Forget London :)))
I absolutely love your videos, Malini. The production quality of the videos is so good it deserves to be on actual national television. You have filled a big Rick Steves shaped hole in my heart. They are big shoes to fill and you’ve more than filled them. Keep up the amazing work. Looking forward to more of your videos.
You would be surpised how much Siclians and Italians are the same in Canada. I was born in Calaribia raised in Toronto we all keep the love Of Italians and Italy in our heart. I feel something is missing when I'm in Canadian society. When I meet Italians I'm very joyful. I wonder having Italian teachers been like.
I loved it! Brava! One thing I recognize in Sicily is the fact that we have integrated the culture of everyone who invaded us, we are very evolved in that sense, we get used to impossible things very rapidly when we have to, unfortunately we are not evolved in keeping our treasures clean and in pristine conditions.
I remembered my school days back in London . I used to lodge with an Italian family originally from Napoli . She used to cook a lot of pasta , all kinds and they had their home made wine. I was like a member of the family. They were such nice people. Thank God.
I am first generation Sicilian American. My mom, aunt and grandparents are from the province of Catania but they lived in Adrano. I’m proud of my heritage and culture ❤
@@leethal59 Sicily is Italy, period. They speak like that because they like to feel more special (likewise a lot of people), but every region is unique in Italy.
I have just discovered your channel. Really enjoyed this video. Very informative and detailed history. Cant wait to visit. Also, loved every one of your outfits 😍
My family is from castellammare del golfo in trapani. That culture was brought to Brooklyn NY as many of many of my family members migrated to the U.S. I have very fond memories of my grandparents and I look forward to completing my Italian dual citizenship by the end of this year. My first trip to Sicily will be next year and I can't wait. I hope to see many smiling faces!!
Isn;t that where they grow the grapes for Marsala wine, I think probably yes? Saw many folks thru bouts of sea sickness while crossing the proverbial "pond" Fact Safeway Stores carries a brand of Marsala Wine that I notice has its origin in Spain, I think.
Really amazing videos the way you articulate about the places, people and culture is very interesting and appreciate the videography. Keep up the good work.
You guys have done some professional course in filmmaking, haven't you? It is not possible for a normal vlogger to produce such a high quality videos. Amazing ❤
another magnificent work, Malini, demonstrate your passion and the great italian cultural richness that is the heritage of the immense Italian history...think, what is the difference between a walk in the elegant and rich center of Turin or Milan, to the passionate and rustic Sicilian warm reality like in the fish markets, Italy is truly generous and those who have the sensitivity to discover what there is beyond pizza and the main tourist sites can truly reveal an incredible cultural treasure, for example the detail of eating meat with your hands, very different vibes from what you normally think of Italy, more like indian or arabic.
Indian is NOT the same as Arabs. Arabs have olive skin colors and white pale skin colors with many hair colors and eye colors. Real Arabs especially Northern Middle Eastern Levantine Arabs are Semitic Caucasians. Anyone look like an Indian are NOT Arabs but Indians living in Arab countries.
Malini, your videos are amazing! They make the world so much more meaningful and sensible. Sheer beauty, pure bliss. Thank you for your efforts making them, and keep up your beautiful work! Wish you all the best! ❤
You are a foodie with a strong appetite for for different types. The facade of the buildings look scary but the architecture and the natural landscape look great. One had heard/read about Sicily long long back but are witnessing it through your videos. Happy travelling n TC...

im from south america and been to italy many times matter of fact italy and japan are two favourite countries in the world and ive been all over even in antartica . sicily is italy because italy is a living museum, with rich foods and culture. i love the dolomites region with its spectacular mountain range and lake regions to my favourite cities florence and rome period.
Geograpichally it is Italy but Italy is not a monolith from Alps to Sicily. Central and North Italians are culturally and phenotipically not the same of South Italians.
I live abroad now but I was born and raised in Syracuse, lived there for most of my life and seeing Ortygia featured in your video made me very proud and happy. I also felt a bit nostalgic because I have not being able to come back in a while but have to say you absolutely did a great job depicting what the island is about. Thanks!
Elle a montré quelques personnes qui pensent que la Sicile n’est pas italienne c’est tout ! pfffff ! La majorité des siciliens pense le contraire et je fais partie d’eux par ma mère. Viva la Sicilia italiana 🇮🇹 !
Rural Brazil looks like Portugal, but some urban areas from Brazil looks like Siciliy. Brazil's mentality is also more similar to that of Italy than Portugal.
@@charles2521 Sao Paulo, Parana and Rio Grande do Sul are three states built and colonized by Lombardians and Venetians. Italian-Brazilians are very proud of that
@@dbrrttrue. But the Italians that colonized Brazil are mostly from the north, very different than the south(sicilia,napoli). Sicily would be something like the northeast of Brazil
My Italian family come from Sicily we are Italian.🇮🇹 I see the Spanish the Greeks are similar lots of countries are similar I and proud to be Italian 🇮🇹
Thoroughly enjoyed watching all your European and Middle Eastern travel videos. I'd absolutely love to see more Asian and Southeast Asian regions/cultures through your unique style and perspective
Thank you for such a wonderful video! I was in Sicily for two months and this really took me back. What I loved about the island so much is how vastly different each region is, and how stunning! But my favourite place is Palermo ❤
Greetings from San Diego, California! San Diego is like Mediterranean of USA. ⛪🚢🇺🇲 Our climate looks so similar to those places even the winery! Lots of Spanish architecture here! Would love to see more Italian, or 'Sicilian' architecture here as well! 🇺🇲🇮🇹
San Diego weather is a bit cool and mild in the summer to be typical Mediterranean weather. I think inland California is more typical of what Mediterranean weather is. Think Central Valley CA, Paso Robles, inland Ventura County, northern Napa Valley, even Temecula. Typical weather in those areas is near or above 100 degree hot and dry summer days while somewhat cooling off in the evenings to 60's and low 70's. No snow in the winter but can definitely get near or below freezing overnight on the coldest winter days but usually warming up in the 50s and perhaps 60s during the day. After traveling to southern Spain, Italy, and the south of France, both in winter and summer that's what Mediterranean weather is.
@@xchpstang Sugnu di Cefalu, Sicilia and live in Fallbrook ,California now. Very similar weather to Sicilia in San Diego County Especially places like Fallbrook and Vista. Salutamu!
Excellent work beautifully made with great detail and depth. ms Malini is stunning beautiful and elegant woman with big talent .This is in my opinion educational and professional learning that will be interesting for everyone.We need more of shows like this so younger people can get off from reality shows and watch something interesting and learn in process. Great work.
OMG! Just amazing videos you make. You in fact aggrandise the relevance of the places you visit with your irresistible beauty, charm and enthusiasm! Please don’t stop! ❤
PLEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAASE more videos of Italy you're the only youtuber in the world that managed to make me travel virtually there, me who cannot go due to visa complications🤧after i watched the napoli episode i just fell in love with your videos ❤
I read the wikipedia of the 'Rigorgsmento' and the Northern Italians did a pogrom of the Southern Italians. After 1870/ Garabaldi's time, forty million southern Italians left to America. Due to slippery Laws made by the Northern Italians. It was the Kingdom of Piedmont & Sicily? Republics kill people.

Great video, but Sicily is definitely Italy. I know many Sicilians say it's not because they feel Sicilian in the first place, but feeling Sicilian doesn't mean you're not Italian. I feel Neapolitan and Italian at the same time, I share my "napoletanità" with other Neapolitans and my "italianità" with other Italians. Italy includes so much diversity and that the main reason of its richness and beauty.
Beautiful, hermoso, bellissimo video. Thank you for bringing Sicily to the rest of the world. Greetings from Argentina. By the way i am a tour guide in Buenos Aires🖐🖐🖐
Everything was so wonderful until the horse meatballs popped up😱 Italy is definitely one of our favorite countries though, much love 🥰 You have to also visit some Aegean/Mediterranian Islands here in Turkey, which would be interesting to rediscover here on this channel...Long live the Mediterranian💙
Horse meat is fabulous, very tasty and lean, has tons of iron and that's why it's very red when raw in respect of beef of veal. Here in Italy all supermarkets have a horse meat section in the meats department, also because it's very indicated for kids because of the leanness and the high iron and vitamins content.
@@LUIS-ox1bvnot « only Americans » are squeamish. Horse meat is available in France but many many French people won’t eat it and feel about it as disgusted as eating dog meat. Of course the British and the Irish don’t eat horse meat either and they never have. Very strong cultural aversion to eating horse meat among many Europeans.
And like a Spanish market... Even in traditional London street markets they scream like that! I just think this lady hasn't visited those areas in her own country LOL
Sicily is a unique and wonderful region, just like all the others, but despite everything, all of them are Italy. Even if each region has its own characteristics and traditions, there is a very strong base and cultural/identity bond common to all of Italy that holds the regions all together. Viva l'Italia e la Sicilia! 🟩⬜🟥
@@corinneskitchen neoborbonici, indipendentisti ecc.. non hanno mai avuto argomentazioni valide. L'unica cosa sensata che puoi fare è criticare la politica italiana non buttando il tuo voto nel cesso, oppure andare ad arrestare mafiosi per estirpare la corruzione
La Sicilia è etnicamente, linguisticamente, storicamente una nazione a sè stante come lo sono mi,te regioni sedicenti italiane. L’Italia all’infuori della geografia non sarebbe mai esistita se non fosse stato per la meschina unificazione voluta dall’espansionismo francese e dalla m@sson3rja inglese, che voleva Malta e distruggere la flotta del Regno delle due Sicilie. M0rte ai Mille, a Garibaldi, Mazzini, LaMarmora e alla Mafia e alla C@rboneria. ANTUDO.
I really like Angelina your channel because you show the reality of the places in a natural way and not false or forced. I can tell you that I’m from Naples and I saw the video that I liked ...it’s also that of Sicily you did it really well .. Bravo
Sicilian Baroque is the distinctive form of Baroque architecture which evolved on the island of Sicily, off the southern coast of Italy, in the 17th and 18th centuries, when it was part of the Spanish Empire
Yes. Many forget, that Sicily was under Spanish control for quite a while. It was the Spaniards who brought tomatoes from Mexico to Europe. Sicily was also under the control of the Normans and Arabs, and a major Greek colony in ancient times.They have all left their stamp on the island's distinctive flavor.
@@LUIS-ox1bv sicily since the fall of the roman empire never had the opportunity to become an independent kingdom caused by the various foreign powers fighting each other for the control over the island which is in a strategic position at the center of the mediterean sea.
@@LUIS-ox1bv Most important mark on the island was left by the Romans. Sicilians speak a romance language, their religion/culture is Roman. That dude grossly exaggerated the Arab basically invisible influence. Eastern part of Sicily was in the hands of the Carthage, a Canaanite people, so they were Semitic and closely related to the Arabs. I suspect that in Eastern Sicily might still be some faint Carthaginian traces that they confuse with the Arab ones. As for the market, he should travel more, all markets are like that everywhere traditional markets still exist.
I think your humour about Sicilian being more arab did not got too well with proud Sicilians/Italians😊 The freshest Mazara red prawns are unequalled for their amazing taste. Expensive, but must have. You know prawns are fresh when they’re still swimming at the fishmonger! Bellissimo video😘
Haha, my humour was about Sicily being more Sicilian 😊😊 but I guess people have gotten caught up in the Arab culture alluded to in the video by the local Sicilian guide!
@@maliniangelica1 He seemed to be pandering with that bit. To make the region seem more diverse. Sicilian culture is not Semitic, nor is it so because it is "loud".
Why would Italian people's ancient Mesopotamian Arab and Levantine Arab heritage make Italians ashamed? If it wasn't for the ancient Levantine Arabs and Mesopotamians that Italian culture, you love so much would not exist. Be proud of Italy's ancient Northern Middle Eastern heritage (Mesopotamian, Levantine Arab, and Turkish).
@@maliniangelica1 Please don't listen to these people who deny Italian people's Northern Middle Eastern heritage in language, culture, food, and family traditions. Northern Middle Eastern influence in Italy is the strongest influence out of all people that conquered ancient Italy.

Rural Brazil looks like Portugal, but some urban areas from Brazil looks like Siciliy. Brazil's mentality is also more similar to that of Italy than Portugal.
@@charles2521 Sao Paulo, Parana and Rio Grande do Sul are three states built and colonized by Lombardians and Venetians. Italian-Brazilians are very proud of that
@@dbrrttrue. But the Italians that colonized Brazil are mostly from the north, very different than the south(sicilia,napoli). Sicily would be something like the northeast of Brazil
My Italian family come from Sicily we are Italian.🇮🇹 I see the Spanish the Greeks are similar lots of countries are similar I and proud to be Italian 🇮🇹
Great content! Loved the Catania's market part!
Her camera man is so good... Edit and sound is just what a perfect video/documentary should entail. Got yourself a subscriber Malini
Thanks for the sub! ❤️
One of the best filmmaker in RUclips universe, love from India. ❤
Thoroughly enjoyed watching all your European and Middle Eastern travel videos. I'd absolutely love to see more Asian and Southeast Asian regions/cultures through your unique style and perspective
Stay tuned, we’ll be doing Japan and South Korea later on this year !
@@maliniangelica1 Love my Italian brothers 😭
Malini Angelica You are such a beautiful woman like a Greek Goddess that came back to life strolling the streets that your ancestors built. ❤️
Wonderful travel video indeed, thanks!
Many thanks!
omg the Pom at the end of the video is so cute! 🥰
Beautiful places and churches
So beautiful!
Thank you for such a wonderful video! I was in Sicily for two months and this really took me back. What I loved about the island so much is how vastly different each region is, and how stunning! But my favourite place is Palermo ❤
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! Palermo is indeed beautiful, we will go back and do a video on another region for sure 🤍🤍
@@maliniangelica1 Cannot wait! 💜

Sicily,..Magna Grecia 🇬🇷 ❤ 🇮🇹
Sicily Is Italy🇮🇹
@@cris-ne3opsi riferisce a 3000 anni fa, quando gran parte del sud Italia era Grecia.
@@cris-ne3opthe Greeks made it Greek!
@@cris-ne3opif you’re Sicilian go do a dna test and you will be more related to Greeks then northern Italy
No.
Thanks for this profound and inspiring video. And your English pronounciation is a joy to listen to.
Malini, Thank you for the great video!
My pleasure!
Greetings from San Diego, California! San Diego is like Mediterranean of USA.
⛪🚢🇺🇲
Our climate looks so similar to those places even the winery! Lots of Spanish architecture here! Would love to see more Italian, or 'Sicilian' architecture here as well! 🇺🇲🇮🇹
Thanks for sharing!
True, I'm Italian and have been to San Diego... real cool, nice mixed American and Latin vibes, really enjoyable 👍
San Diego weather is a bit cool and mild in the summer to be typical Mediterranean weather. I think inland California is more typical of what Mediterranean weather is. Think Central Valley CA, Paso Robles, inland Ventura County, northern Napa Valley, even Temecula. Typical weather in those areas is near or above 100 degree hot and dry summer days while somewhat cooling off in the evenings to 60's and low 70's. No snow in the winter but can definitely get near or below freezing overnight on the coldest winter days but usually warming up in the 50s and perhaps 60s during the day. After traveling to southern Spain, Italy, and the south of France, both in winter and summer that's what Mediterranean weather is.
@@xchpstang Sugnu di Cefalu, Sicilia and live in Fallbrook ,California now. Very similar weather to Sicilia in San Diego County Especially places like Fallbrook and Vista. Salutamu!
San Diego is a Sh_t hole in lousy Ca.
Sicily is bridge between Europe and north Africa. Like turkey and Greece are bridge between Europe and middle east
I love Sicily/ Italy always in my heart. I would love move in to Italy someday . Greeting from Stockholm
You should!
Your videos have life in them ❤
Excellent work beautifully made with great detail and depth. ms Malini is stunning beautiful and elegant woman with big talent .This is in my opinion educational and professional learning that will be interesting for everyone.We need more of shows like this so younger people can get off from reality shows and watch something interesting and learn in process. Great work.
OMG! Just amazing videos you make. You in fact aggrandise the relevance of the places you visit with your irresistible beauty, charm and enthusiasm! Please don’t stop! ❤
Noi siamo molto prestigiosi anche senza i suoi video sei tu che vivi nelle caverne
PLEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAASE more videos of Italy you're the only youtuber in the world that managed to make me travel virtually there, me who cannot go due to visa complications🤧after i watched the napoli episode i just fell in love with your videos ❤
More to come! Thank you 😊
It makes my wonder what kind of hardship my ancestors on my moms side had to leave such a beautiful island. One day I’ll make it to Licata Sicily
Um, probably because it wasn't like this when they left?
La povertà le ingiustizie sociali e il desiderio di migliorare l'esistenza dei propri figli cose che ancora oggi un Sicilia è impossibile
I read the wikipedia of the 'Rigorgsmento' and the Northern Italians did a pogrom of the Southern Italians. After 1870/ Garabaldi's time, forty million southern Italians left to America. Due to slippery Laws made by the Northern Italians.
It was the Kingdom of Piedmont & Sicily?
Republics kill people.

Ma come vivono?
Servizi inesistenti, disoccupazione e qualità della vita sostanzialmente pessima e mi fermo qui altrimenti potrei continuare.

Malini. Angel. I've seen hundreds of travel videos. Yours, by far, are the best! Thank you for inspiring us to dream, another life.
My pleasure!!thank you 🤍
@@maliniangelica1 Oh you're the best! We're so curious on your film training, the equipment you use for video and sound. . . . But anyways, please send us more . . . With our best, from your fans in Paris and NYC
Super high production value, like something you'd see on TV!
Wow, thanks!
Thank you very much for this tribute ti our culture.
Our pleasure!
Great video, but Sicily is definitely Italy. I know many Sicilians say it's not because they feel Sicilian in the first place, but feeling Sicilian doesn't mean you're not Italian. I feel Neapolitan and Italian at the same time, I share my "napoletanità" with other Neapolitans and my "italianità" with other Italians. Italy includes so much diversity and that the main reason of its richness and beauty.
Sicily is not italy, italy is Sicily 😎
Italia quel beau pays. La tête a la fraîcheur des alpes et les pieds au chaud en Afrique c'est trop bon. Forza italia
I love Italians in general and especially Sicilians !
But they commit so much crime the South italians
Beautiful, hermoso, bellissimo video. Thank you for bringing Sicily to the rest of the world. Greetings from Argentina. By the way i am a tour guide in Buenos Aires🖐🖐🖐
I’m addicted to these videos , there is nothing more Italian in the video more than her ❤
Everything was so wonderful until the horse meatballs popped up😱 Italy is definitely one of our favorite countries though, much love 🥰 You have to also visit some Aegean/Mediterranian Islands here in Turkey, which would be interesting to rediscover here on this channel...Long live the Mediterranian💙
Aegean islands belongs to Greece turk,also the land you call turkey is Greek stop dreaming .
Horse meat is fabulous, very tasty and lean, has tons of iron and that's why it's very red when raw in respect of beef of veal.
Here in Italy all supermarkets have a horse meat section in the meats department, also because it's very indicated for kids because of the leanness and the high iron and vitamins content.
At one time horse meat was widely eaten in Europe. Only Americans are squeamish about these matters.
@@LUIS-ox1bvnot « only Americans » are squeamish. Horse meat is available in France but many many French people won’t eat it and feel about it as disgusted as eating dog meat. Of course the British and the Irish don’t eat horse meat either and they never have. Very strong cultural aversion to eating horse meat among many Europeans.
This is how a Greek market is also! They go crazy as the Sicilians.
And like a Spanish market... Even in traditional London street markets they scream like that! I just think this lady hasn't visited those areas in her own country LOL
Sicily is a unique and wonderful region, just like all the others, but despite everything, all of them are Italy. Even if each region has its own characteristics and traditions, there is a very strong base and cultural/identity bond common to all of Italy that holds the regions all together. Viva l'Italia e la Sicilia! 🟩⬜🟥
👏👏👏🇮🇹❤️
La sicilia non è italia,ha una propria identità e non ha nessun legame con l'italia.Mettitelo bene in testa
"Viva l'Italia" e "Viva la Sicilia" are two contradictory statements lol pick one.
@@corinneskitchen neoborbonici, indipendentisti ecc.. non hanno mai avuto argomentazioni valide. L'unica cosa sensata che puoi fare è criticare la politica italiana non buttando il tuo voto nel cesso, oppure andare ad arrestare mafiosi per estirpare la corruzione
La Sicilia è etnicamente, linguisticamente, storicamente una nazione a sè stante come lo sono mi,te regioni sedicenti italiane. L’Italia all’infuori della geografia non sarebbe mai esistita se non fosse stato per la meschina unificazione voluta dall’espansionismo francese e dalla m@sson3rja inglese, che voleva Malta e distruggere la flotta del Regno delle due Sicilie. M0rte ai Mille, a Garibaldi, Mazzini, LaMarmora e alla Mafia e alla C@rboneria. ANTUDO.
I really like Angelina your channel because you show the reality of the places in a natural way and not false or forced. I can tell you that I’m from Naples and I saw the video that I liked ...it’s also that of Sicily you did it really well .. Bravo
Thank you ! 🙏
Hi Malini, based on your travels, what is your top 3 cuisines so far?
Sicilian Baroque is the distinctive form of Baroque architecture which evolved on the island of Sicily, off the southern coast of Italy, in the 17th and 18th centuries, when it was part of the Spanish Empire
Yes. Many forget, that Sicily was under Spanish control for quite a while. It was the Spaniards who brought tomatoes from Mexico to Europe. Sicily was also under the control of the Normans and Arabs, and a major Greek colony in ancient times.They have all left their stamp on the island's distinctive flavor.
@@LUIS-ox1bv sicily since the fall of the roman empire never had the opportunity to become an independent kingdom caused by the various foreign powers fighting each other for the control over the island which is in a strategic position at the center of the mediterean sea.
@@LUIS-ox1bv Most important mark on the island was left by the Romans. Sicilians speak a romance language, their religion/culture is Roman. That dude grossly exaggerated the Arab basically invisible influence. Eastern part of Sicily was in the hands of the Carthage, a Canaanite people, so they were Semitic and closely related to the Arabs. I suspect that in Eastern Sicily might still be some faint Carthaginian traces that they confuse with the Arab ones. As for the market, he should travel more, all markets are like that everywhere traditional markets still exist.
I think your humour about Sicilian being more arab did not got too well with proud Sicilians/Italians😊 The freshest Mazara red prawns are unequalled for their amazing taste. Expensive, but must have. You know prawns are fresh when they’re still swimming at the fishmonger! Bellissimo video😘
Haha, my humour was about Sicily being more Sicilian 😊😊 but I guess people have gotten caught up in the Arab culture alluded to in the video by the local Sicilian guide!
@@maliniangelica1 He seemed to be pandering with that bit. To make the region seem more diverse. Sicilian culture is not Semitic, nor is it so because it is "loud".
Why would Italian people's ancient Mesopotamian Arab and Levantine Arab heritage make Italians ashamed? If it wasn't for the ancient Levantine Arabs and Mesopotamians that Italian culture, you love so much would not exist. Be proud of Italy's ancient Northern Middle Eastern heritage (Mesopotamian, Levantine Arab, and Turkish).
@@maliniangelica1 Please don't listen to these people who deny Italian people's Northern Middle Eastern heritage in language, culture, food, and family traditions. Northern Middle Eastern influence in Italy is the strongest influence out of all people that conquered ancient Italy.
@@arabicmusiclady1428 only the south of Italy
Too good to miss out ❤
I lived in Giardini Naxos and Taormina for three years. Sicily is my second home, and I love absolutely everything about it.
Such a beautiful vibrant place, definitely on my travel list.
