Hi . Love what you are doing. I was born in calabria. Would love to come to visit I have family in siderno. I lived in Torino every summer came back to Calabria. I was there in 2016 . Looking forward to coming back.
MY Grandfather MICHELINO NANIA was born in Catanzaro - Italy - on January 16 1889 - I did family research on him - and I am still trying to find out more - , Joe Nania
Hi Lilly! I just found your channel and love it! It may have been through a co-post with Justin and Michael that I realized I must hear more of your take on Calabria. The details you share are offbeat, insightful, important to know and fascinating and your commentary makes me smile and often hoot out loud til I’m cry-laughing. Looking forward to hearing and seeing more of the region through your experience. Thank you.
Ciao Lilly, grazie per aver visitato la mia terra e per aver divulgato le bellezze di Catanzaro Lido. Vado tutti gli anni in Calabria e sarebbe bello se un giorno ritornassi a Catanzaro Lido per far conoscere al mondo internauta i favolosi prodotti gastronomici Calabresi. La Calabria è una terra ricca di tradizioni culinarie, che si basano su ingredienti genuini e sapori intensi. Tra i prodotti tipici calabresi, ci sono i salumi, come la 'nduja, la soppressata e il capocollo, i formaggi, come il pecorino e il caciocavallo, le conserve e le spezie, come il peperoncino, il bergamotto e la cipolla rossa di Tropea, i liquori e le birre, come l’amaro e la birra artigianale, e i vini, come il Cirò e il Greco di Bianco. Mi auguro che sarai rimasta incuriosita, per poter ritornare ancora una volta in Calabria. Sarai la benvenuta. Felice serata.
My grandfather MICHELINO NANIA was born on January 16 1889 in Catanzaro Italy - I did research and traced him back to a monastery that he was given to on that date - by his parents who I guess could not keep him - The story goes is that he was dropped off at 4 in the morning - They rang the bell and then and put on a "rotunda" - which was a surface/table that went into the wall of the monastery and came out into the other side of the wall - from where the nuns would take the baby in - and adopt him - His name given to him by the nuns was Michael Macretta - I need to find out more information there - do you know of a monestary there ? or a city hall ? please let me know thank you , Joe Nania - his grandson -
Thank you Lilly love the walks you take us on.The old homes in the centro.and the stores are just lovely but il mare is meraviglioso ,,,,,I miss Italy so much and cannot wait to return.. Your commentary is so engaging so keep up the great work..It would be great to know when market days are on in different parts of Calabria that you visit for future reference as most people love going to markets .Grazie Bella Donna.❤️✌️🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇮🇹
Grazie Lilly per videos che ci fai vedere com’è oggi la nostra Calabria veramente bello vedere tutti i perticolare Buona giornata e serata è ti augurio un bellissimo compleanno 🎂 per il giorno che e il tuo compleanno un abbraccio ciao 😘🇮🇹👍❤️💖💐☀️🌟
👋👋👋 Nice lil Tour 👌.It is good to see all of those little shops in Business and not big box stores all over that part of town at least.Id definitely be buying some of those Italian made dress shirts myself,prices sounded decent for a small town store.Some of the architecture is nice in that part of town and it is always sad too see good architecture get run down and not upkept because the labor,money and time is worth it.Most of the vehicles suck there though,I mean cars suck in most places these days it just looks even worse there.Pretty much none of those I saw would be big enough to transport all of my Gear and Tools efficiently without make a ton of trips...
We’ll be in Catanzaro tomorrow, during the time everything is closed down what do you recommend we do? It looks like rain as well which stinks but we’ll make the best of it
Are you with a car? If you can drive down to the beach or go check out the city itself. Pack a picnic before hand and go to the biodiversity park if it’s not raining.
@@BAMatherne.realtor I hope you guys have a good time! Today it isn’t raining so much so beach could be nice. If you go to catanzaro lido stop by maroon glaces for gelato!!
Love your videos. How can people contact you privately? I will be out there in September to look at properties. We live in Northern California. My family is from Calabria and I’m first generation. I have many questions. Thanks you.
Ciao Maria! Email me lillianspadaro@gmail.com and if you have WhatsApp then that’s the best way to stay in touch. What part of NorCal are you guys from? My family is from the Bay Area specially San Fran and Fremont. I can definitely help you guys find propriety outhere I’m actually setting up a website for that purpose. Would LOVE to have Californians out here!!!
