That was lovely, my grandparents lived to 98 and 101. Grandma Daisy drank hot water with lemon before each meal she also exercised daily but she kept busy same with grandma. Loved the joy found in that village it’s truly wonderful
Watching Andrea slowly transform from the grumpy yet willing tour guide, to getting hugged and kissed by the boys, and eventually cracking and smiling and laughing, was such a great side story to the main story of this magic little town.
Niphyra quality of like in the US is terrible- especially in rural places… also u literally can’t go anywhere by foot in the US unless u live in a major city… Europe > US
Something I think everyone is missing about this is that elders in these communities are celebrated, revered, and cherished. Elders are looked up to and are an integral part of the community. It has to be contributing to this effect of longer life. Sure, the wine and food and climate probably also help but a big part of it has to be the way they treat their elders. I'll put it this way: There aren't any nursing homes in Okinawa or Seulo.
Yeah it's just there lives are on a highly positive note,happy doing what ever they want and being happy and mostly surrounded by positive people. It makes us wonder how important mental health is
I’m 7 minutes into this video and I haven’t stopped smiling. What an adventure. I went to north wales when I was 14 in 1981. It was so strange to me how everyone wanted me to come to their homes for dinner. Even little kids said their mums wanted me to come over. I chose only one and ended up living there for a year and gained a new family. Now that it’s over I’m in tears. So sad that it’s not like this everywhere. They don’t give a shit about fancy cars, clothes, homes or big money. It’s about love, family, friendship, laughter and community. People here in the US are always in the pursuit of money and material things, none of which brings true happiness. These people have all they want and need right there. Such a great video❤️
@@DJDeviousI’m leaving the US in a few months from now and I’m moving to Sardegna. 🇮🇹 I can’t wait and hope that the community there will treat me like a human being.
@@DJDevious I’m still trying to figure out to what city I want to move to. Most probably it will be Cagliari. I have been to Olbia approximately 20 years ago. It’s a nice city. But it seems the hospitals in Olbia are not that good. I’m in contact with a lady from Italy mainland and she has friends in Sardegna (Sardinia in English) and she will ask them to help me figure out what city/town would be the best for me. Are you also planning to move to Sardegna?
Your answer is right there. They drink natural organic wine which is nothing but antioxidants, they stay very active and social well into their age and they treat each other with respect and kindness. Positivity goes a long way.
Absolutely. I firmly believe that stress is the biggest detriment to our health in so many ways, on a micro and macro level. Stress makes us lose sleep, disrupts our eating patterns, impacts our social relationships, leads us to engage in risky behaviours, and affects us cellularly by affecting healthy cell cycling and disrupting our immune system. Antioxidants help mitigate the cellular effects of stress, and all those other things that come along with stress, when they're avoided, our health is so much more easily maintained. I met the oldest man in Canada last year (112 years old i believe) and his secret to life was to avoid stress and have everything in moderation. He was still working out at a gym until he was around 107 or 108 and that's when he started to use a walker for the first time. He also had no mental impairments or hearing issues or anything. Pretty remarkable man. He said his siblings all lived past 95 as well.
This one really hurt. As a depressed alcoholic and living in the city from pay check to pay check worried about bills and shit, this is what I probably ever wanted. Calm, peaceful, happy, stress free environment & just good vibes.
if something improves in your life please consider going to one of these places. Sorry that you are living paycheck to paycheck I hope your situation will improve.
If you can I would really suggest attempting to take a trip here. Vacations to these tiny towns in Europe aren't as expensive and if u budget u could really get the best out of thr experience.
As someone who was born and raised in Italy, and has Sardinian ancestors, this video was so beautifully done. Sardinia is truly the only place that will make you feel at home, no matter where you’re from, what language you speak, or who you are. This sense of community is something that you can find in many small, isolated italian cities, but it’ll never be as heart-warming as the one you experience in Seulo. Thank you guys for representing this side of my country. Amazingly done.
its so cool these kind of communities still exist and prosper around the world. in todays world with billions of people living in highly urbanized areas, its kind of reassuring that you can always drop everything and move to this kind of community, and be welcomed with open arms
My mother in law who is Italian worked until 100 as a matron on school bus for special needs children. She did not want to retire, but was forced because of Covid. She turned 102 in August. She eats healthy, bakes, and cooks fresh meals. She still gets around. Her husband was a Captain with 6th armored with General Patton liberated Buchenwald. She tells amazing stories.
Wow! I had a friend I took care of who was also with Patton and helped deliver Buchenwald! He passed a few years ago with leukemia. The stories he told were chilling and he said there were many more he could not tell.
BlueRose...please write down those stories, or have your children do it for you as you dictate. So many people would benefit from them and I'm certain they would make a great book. I would buy it, and I haven't even heard the stories. I am just sure of this
Bro I swear your comments keep bringing me back to your channel, you literally watch everything. It's like Just Some Guy without a Mustache but with actual content and IMO better comments.
@@Sunny74- Honesty and direct communication is vital in a small society to make it stronger. People show their feelings. You can't be second guessing intentions in a village where everyone depend on each other.
"The secret is...that the people of Seulo haven't discovered anything new, they've simply perfected the basic aspects of a healthy lifestyle that we already know..." - that was gold. Thank you for this video!
The key to a long life for Sardinians: Low stress, Mediterranean diet, Daily sport activities (gardening), No added chemicals in foods, daily red wine (in moderation) love trust and compassion in a community. A pure natural life as intended for humans
@@somedudeinatunnel3102 Probably not I think vegans need to take supplements because you cant get everything you need from just vegetables. B12 and stuff
@@somedudeinatunnel3102 balanced diet of meat and veggies is the key to a healthy lifestyle, not being a vegan. Humans are like that since the early civilization.
Hey guys, as an italian i can tell you that this is the reality of 90% of the villages in Italy!! Community is what makes us stronger as a species!! Eating good food, laugh, stay outside, dance, and play music is what this life should be all about!! Very nice video! Take care ;)
This was truly a masterclass discussion on discovery, exploration, and allowing yourself to become encapsulated by the environment around you. Unbelievable video with an incredible message, all done in 20 minutes. Yes Theory outdid themselves this time.
Wow what a beautiful comment, thank you so much ❤️ super proud and happy with both the experience and the story that came out it. Many lessons in this for us, I know I took many along with me!
My grandma was born in Karelia, Finland in 1919 and she lived to be 100. She lived through the war and bombings, had to leave her hometown when the russians came, later bought a farm, had 11 kids who she raised and worked hard on her farm every day, Each summer she picked tens of litres of berries alone in a forest where she sometimes saw bears, and then sold the berries. With the money she travelled abroad. She kept doing this yearly routine until her late 80's. She was truly made of steel.
I live in senior house where we live indipendently like in normal rent-apartement I am 72 and above from my flat lives a lady who got 100 last spring. So it makes me feel young....
I love this video so much! Thank you for sharing this beautiful community. What incredible people you got to meet :) I was just in Loma Linda two days ago shooting a video and my dream is to visit every Blue Zone!
WHETHER YOU BELIEVE IN GOD OR NOT YOU WILL KNEEL BEFORE HIM ON JUDGEMENT DAY AND HE WILL GO THROUGH EVERY WORD YOU SAID/EVERY THOUGHT YOU HAD/EVERY SIN YOU DID. YOU WONT BE ABLE TO ARGUE WITH HIM EITHER, YOU WILL KNOW YOU ARE GUILTY AND MADE A BIG MISTAKE. YOURE EITHER FOR GOD OR AGAINST GOD & THERE IS BUT 1 GOD (its not satan/buddha/allah). JESUS IS RETURNING VERY VERY SOON WITH JUDGEMENT! THINGS ARE ABOUT TO GET FAR WORSE THAN ANY TIME IN HISTORY. THE ONLY WAY OUT IS TO TURN TO JESUS BEFORE ITS TOO LATE. DONT BE LEFT BEHIND! Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."-John 14:6 "But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven."-Matthew 10:33 “For the wages of sin is death (hell), but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord”-Romans 6:23
I was actually born in Loma Linda to a family of Seventh-Day Adventists, many of whom who have reached close to 100 in age. It's actually quite amazing what simple healthy lifestyles can do for longevity!
@@TJMaxximalist Incredible! I absolutely love the people and community there. They were so kind and welcoming. The Seventh Day Adventists are definitely doing something right :)
I'm really glad you had a great time here. Thank you for talking about the centenarians here, usually tourists usually come for beaches, so thank you for covering another aspect of life here. Sardinia is truly a beautiful place, it has a rich history and traditions. Unfortunately I am a bit worried about future tourists visiting small towns as they are getting more popular, tourism is already a problem here. If you plan on visiting please don't damage the environment, don't paint on rocks at the beach, don't take sand, shells and rocks. Please. Do not pollute. Be respectful.
@@raulrus9026Many reasons, let me explain. If everyone stole stand, beaches would disappear. Just imagine every person on the beach takes the same amount of sand: a small bottle would turn into thousands of small bottles… This is to say: never try to justify yourself with the thought of “it’s only me, what could possibly happen?” It’s not only you. It never is. Some beaches have already been closed to the public because of excessive sand theft and many others became restricted access beaches for the same reason. Sand theft is actually illegal in Sardinia - as well as many other places in Italy. There are two separate laws to protect the environment from thieves. it is forbidden to take away sand, algae, shells/conchs, stones, pebbles, and living or dead animals (such as starfishes) from their place of origin. Tons and tons of sand have been stolen from Sardinia. Just in 2021 I think it was more than 6 tons. You are stealing something that can never be restored!! We have many better souvenirs. If you are someone that has stolen sand from Sardinia and you are reading this comment, please return it. You can contact the Sardinian government or local newspapers so that they can help you return it. Hope this explains, if you want to know more just google sardinia sand, there are many articles about it
@@Lil-lt8np thank you, I see that you are posionate about your home region, I have never been in Sardinia, I was asking because I saw in Italy and many countries by sea, bottles filled with sand and I was curious how a little bit could cause damage, but i forgot the sheer amount of tourists in Sardinia
I am lucky to say I am from Sardinia, happy life is being surrounded by genuine people which create a strong community where a person can immediately identify and belong. This is an authentic and simple life where we help each other without even asking. I wish more people were more kind to each other around the world. This Video made me smile. Thanks for sharing!
@@Netdweller Yes, and there are efforts to recover the language. I feel it will be finally taught in schools in the next decades; soon enough, we hope.
It's always great to have you around, man! Excited to see what's going to come from your new RUclips Channel 👀 P.S: We should definitely visit Andrea again
When I was in college I had to write a paper about happiest people on earth. One thing they all have in common is that they surround themselves with a supportive loving group. No isolation. I remember when the whole world was on lockdown and realize that depression was going to cause so much more damage in the long run especially with the elderly people. Sometimes the cure is worse than a disease. Never underestimate the power surrounding yourself with a loving supportive group whether it’s family, your local community, or Friends. Sunlight and fresh air and living without fear.
Easy 2 say.. I am autisic i cant socialize it giving me stress always stress en my life exspesens is only 36 😭 i hate this video !, whatever they will burn anyway NOBODY STOPS CLIMATE CHANGE!
We had 80 trucks piled up with bodies in NYC even with shut downs. Sirens were going 24/7 for weeks. Connections with people are super important, but there's no need to dismiss the disease and the suffering it has caused plus even more suffering it could've caused with no precautions. So many had the chance to get vaxxed before getting infected which saved their lives and other's lives by keeping them out of the hospital. Though isolation wasn't really necessary by meeting outdoors and using proper respiratory protection. Most govs failed to prepare and are still not prepared for the future. Would you embrace ebola without living with fear? Saying that dismisses all the suffering that happened. As though there aren't downsides to disease which in this case included people suffering and dying alone.
@@xymzk it’s always sad when someone passes. According NOW to the those in Health department, almost 2 years later, they are confirming that getting the jab does not prevent you from getting infected. You can still get it and spread it. It might help you not get hospitalized, but honestly you can still get it and spread it while being fully jabbed. This is not a conspiracy, this is a fact. it’s called breakthrough infection and it happens in allot of cases with people that get the jab. Not everyone dies and not everybody ends up in the hospital. I’m just mentioning that because you’re saying that if most people would’ve gotten jab it could’ve been prevented and that is absolutely not true. I live in a big city. Miami to be exact. Right smack in the middle. I’ve spoken to many doctors that have told me that their patients are dying because they’re stuck in nursing homes or their homes and can’t leave there for regular office treatments so their preexisting illness continues to get worse because it goes untreated. Also did you see how many suicides came out of this? Just in teenage girls alone it rose 30 to 40%! Look it up please. Think about that for a second. Like really take a moment to think about how this lockdown caused 30 to 40% increase in teenage suicide. Not to mention depression, long term loneliness, long term anxiety, etc. People need sunlight. For many reasons. People need fresh air because that helps your oxygen levels. People need to be around loved ones and friends for mental health reasons. That’s how we are build. Now, here in the states some hospitals are being sued because of all the staff they fired for not getting jabbed, which now they admit that is completely useless from actually getting infected and spreading it. Not denying that this flu is real and it’s killed people, but also not denying how this lockdown also killed people for other very serious and very valid reasons. Lastly, i’m assuming you live in NYC. FYI, I can’t even tell you how many New York City license plates I’ve seen all over my city now. All over Florida to be exact because I traveled to Orlando not too long ago and was full of New Yorkers that moved there as well. I live close to coconut grove, and let me tell you going to my local movie theater and parking in the garage I’ve never seen so many New York tags. These lockdowns caused allot of people to have to relocate because of all the restrictions.
Hitchiked Sardinia in 2016 from West to East with my friends. We were a group of italians plus one colombian, but it still was a cultural shock. Among other stories, we found ourselves in this tiny village called Teti in the very center of the island, and we started a conversation with the locals just asking for a fountain. What followed was: - a visit to a man's house who showed us his home grown cheese with worms - a phone call to the major by his wife to let us spend the night in a very nice villa nearby (i guess owned by the municipality) - a couple of hours with the aforementioned man plus his friends who offered us bottles after bottles of Ichnusa (local beer), while getting fed up at the idea of us paying a single round. - an agreement to load us up his pick up truck (10 people) the next morning to take us to the next town. - a very comfortable night. - the aforementioned ride, the next morning, thanks to his son who gladly spent the rest of the morning with us at the bar of the aforementioned next town, offering us more beers and appetizers than his father the night before. This video brought me back to those days. Thanks!
@@mogamadgreyson143 I believe it! I love Italian people. A lot of my friends are Italian (I'm from US), whenever I'd go to visit its all hugs, kisses & food, lol. That town was amazing though. I've never seen anything like it.
It's so sweet how people are always trying their best to communicate with you guys in a language that is not theirs and how happy they seem to feed you and love you like they've known you forever. 😭😭😭 Human beings are great!
"The people of Seulo haven't discovered anything new but they have simply perfected the basic aspects of a healthy lifestyle.." - and this guys is the true meaning of live. It's all about simplicity and happiness
"Going in with no plan is just the best" I couldn't agree more with that phrase. Whenever you don't set any expectations and just go with the flow, doing whatever seems right in the moment is so beautiful and I'm still working on being focused on the present, not plan way too far ahead and all of that stuff, so watching this video really reminded me of how important it is to not overwhelm yourself wit the future and just live life :)
And you have an even better experience. I can 100% guarantee you will have a better experience if you're open to their language, customs, culture, and not constantly fighting with them because they have different political opinions. Enjoy the food. Enjoy the people. Don't be patronizing. And you will have a nice trip. No matter where you go.
Andrea: *insults Yes Theory in Italian* Thomas: I love this guy! Great video! I liked the conclusion and the journey. Looks like you had a lot of fun yourselves. Edit: Rest in peace, Italian friend.
@@jameshopsonsportfolio7301 something like “i’ll hit you in your head if you don’t move that camera from my face” (ti tiro un colpo in testa se non mi levi la videocamera dalla faccia/da davanti)
I've met a 108 year old veteran in a printing shop near my school, we talked a little bit, he said that he used to fight the dutch colonies for independence at mt.kawi which is exactly in my village where i was born. I felt i had an amazing conversation with him as i realized that we are the last genereation to be able to talk to WWII veteran or in my country indonesia its independence veteran

As an Italian there are two things that amazed me during this video: 1) Sardinian language/dialect is quite tough to understand 2) I really love your reaction and how surprised you were when you saw those people inviting you to drink or eat something. I always took it for granted as it is quite common in Italy to do so (and I’m from a city in the south of Italy.. just imagine how it usually is in a small town or in a village).
Yeah, leaving the key in the door in case somebody needs something is a new one on me. I've experienced places where the door is never locked, but not one where the key is left in the door. Also, I grew up in upstate NY where you could drop by and visit somebody whenever you feel like it. Then I moved to CA in '77 and you have to make an appointment or an arrangement to go to somebody's house, you can't just drop by and almost everybody kept the doors locked. Totally opposite from what I'm used to. It took me years to get used to that. I still talk to perfect strangers at the store or on the street or while waiting in line and some people look at me like I'm nuts, but that's how I grew up. It's a lot more friendlier there.
@@C.M.30337 I feel you I lived in a small town in Wyoming, all doors unlocked kind of town then moved to Arizona it was a culture shock. Am moving back to Wyoming in a month though and am excited
@@C.M.30337 I was so amazed by watching this. The whole village coming together. Friends, family, neighbours. And people opening their house to you for food and drinks. I live in Sweden and here it is exactly as you described it in CA. You have to have an appoitment. And always just close family and friends visiting. Having neighbours or strangers over for food and drinks are Very uncommon. I feel like we here live with very closed doors, both physically and mentally.
The video is worth watching, I truly enjoyed every second of it. Italy is my favorite European country, and this town stole my heart. The people are so welcoming, kind, and vibrant. Living a long life is not something unexpected, they eat healthy, leave their keys in doors ( for guests and tourists), sing, dance, and always smile!
I don't think I stopped smiling once whilst watching this! How great. My mother lives in a small village in Portugal with a very similar lifestyle, fresh own grown produce and a stress free life is the key. Andrea, the adopted tour guide, was enjoying it deep down :)
The grumpy guy was hilarious :D If you want to learn more, you should read 'Ikigai'. They did studies on the people of Okinawa, Japan and basically found the same thing: purpose, community, healthy surroundings and food and an active lifestyle within the community. :)
Read that book a few years ago, and immediately got reminded of it while watching the videos. I can only recommend it to anyone, it‘s timeless advice there. We act as things always need to be so complicated, when really we should just treat each other as human beings with human needs. Istg we all need community, no wonder all these wisdoms have been lost when we moved to grand cities, at the same time being constantly connected to everything and everyone yet mental health rapidly declining and people contradictory feeling more alone. Little respect is shown to the elders, they usually get tucked away in nursing homes and live as if they aren‘t part of society anymore. It‘s really all rather sad. I think people are realizing this more and more, and I hope communal living with smaller provinces near the city will becomes more and more popular again. I‘m not saying you can‘t be happy in a city, but it‘s just different idk how to explain.
I think one of the main factors the people can live so long is how social the whole town was. Reminds me of the longest ongoing study done by Harvard that strongly linked long life with the number of close relationships each person had
I've always found blue zones fascinating! If you look at the geographical position, most blue zones are in warmer climates, where you can spend a lot of time outdoors and connected to nature, growing your food and socialising. Community is so important and in my experience certain cultures have stronger daily social connections. These people are the best example of how to be content in life❤️
@@mintberrycrunch1752 most places with snow in the winter have lots of sunshine! If you go to the Alps the winters are mostly blue skies + sunshine. It's the oceanic climate that is usually windy, rainy and cloudy all year round (UK, Belgium, The Netherlands, Denmark, northwest France, Vancouver)
I am from Sardinia ❤️ now living in Sweden. Ohh how much I missed my island while watching this! I loved to see you guys having a great time in my homeland, I could almost taste the food and the wine locally produced (and then bottled in plastic water bottles haha) I had the most of fun dancing in big groups with friendly strangers during festivals on warm summer nights..Sardinia is a special place, and visitors - as long as they are respectful and curious about our culture- are treated like kings and queens. Kudos for the precious content ✨
Healthy local sourced foods, cleaner air, positive environment filled with friends and family all definitely contribute to a greater fulfillment in the peoples lives in the 'blue zones' which could possibly be a factor in the reason they live longer
Watching this was like seeing a vision of a dream world. The fact that this level of true love and community exists on the same planet I am currently on brings me a lot of joy. I want to see the whole world like this.
They are certainly happy. They support one another. There is love and trust. And there is clean air, healthy food. Each person has intrinsic value here.
There is crime in Italy. However, it is nowhere near as high as in America. Italians are happy and appreciate the good life. No place is perfect. Italy has its share of social problems that some people would find unacceptable.
and their food is organic, not poisoned with pesticides and chemicals like the government do to ours, plus the government put flouride poisons and other chemicals to our water too .
I've lived in Greece for 13 years and also noticed that most people aged over 70 use to return to the village where they come from, or have been living there their entire life. The difference between villages and big cities in my opinion is the stress. Stress is a very big factor in someone lifespan. Living Stress-free means you can live longer.
My great aunty lived to 106. Was born in 1915 and lived through both world wars. The stories she told were always amazing! Remarkable woman. I've got 80 years to beat her record, wish me luck!
I feel like this is a general older Italian lifestyle. My grandparents are from Sicily and a lot of this town I see in their lives in NJ. They knew everyone on their street, feeding anyone and everyone, gardening into old age and keeping very active. Also a common stubborn old Italian move is unwilling to wear hearing aids and having people shout at you instead :P
@@HospitGhar2123 Trust me - Sicilian Italian don’t love the stereotypes either. I mean there’s acknowledgement that our ancestors may have been associated with the mafia but like The Godfather isn’t the representation we want
Hi! I'm from Costa Rica, I've visited the blue zone community, and it's completely different from this one. The only similarity I could find is the companionship and good sense of community
Ahh new content. Just as I was feeling awful and like today was a terrible day to be me, I get a little notification to say ‘hey, cheer up, yes theory is here for you’ - thanks guys keep on keeping on!
Loved every part of this doc. Made remember the word "humanity". When he said "I always say "hi" to my neighbors but never had a conversation with them", that hit hard.
i rarely found joy in things lately having no motivation and dealing with depression for a good while .. but i just can't help but having this constant smile on my face when seeing those interactions and people having fun
Videos like this make me happy to know that despite all of the craziness in the world, and politicians trying to pit us against each other, people are intrinsically good at heart.
I've lived in Loma Linda my entire life. When I was old enough to explore surrounding cities, it became more clear as to why it is a blue zone. Loma Linda is filled with people who have really strong values when it comes to their health. Small businesses who observe Sabbath will close on Saturdays so the owners can focus on their faith and their family/home. Many locals practice a vegetarian diet. Even the Loma Linda Medical Center / Hospital only serves vegetarian food (for the most part). The local grocery stores still don't sell hard liquor. When I was 11 or 12, my parents opened up a small care facility for the elderly and I had the opportunity to meet several centenarians growing up. I have since moved a few cities away recently and it has already affected me mentally because I’m seeing less of those values. It's nice to see videos that bring exposure to these small towns because these centenarians deserve recognition!
IKR We push so much in America to do everything we can fit in our schedules and demand every convenience; when you are used to a regular schedule that allows time to just relax with neighbors it isn’t so bad.
I agree they do need to be recognized and we should be willing to learn this. Maybe if we did we all would get along much better then we do now. I definitely will learn from this and those alike. Thank you
I think a big factor is stress. They seem so stress-free there. I think the stress we carry from having to pay bills or go to functions really weighs on us over time.
Dude my parents are from a Village near Seulo, so i get the chance to spent almost all my Summer vacation there, and i can tell ya they do LIVE with stress. But yeah It could be less amount than in the city
This warms my heart so much to see such a strong community, they all know each other, they just share and laugh together! They just live happily, no worries.

The happiness of these people is insane. And the lady from Denmark is so right. you can be alone, living in a big town of million of people. But cant in a small village like that one. it is just so astonishing
I live in Italy and I’m so proud and happy that you guys had the opportunity to experience the lifestyle of our grandparents and those who came before them. This sense of community, welcoming strangers as their relatives, it warms my heart to see it in one of your videos. Thank you so much! Until the next adventure!!!
haha this reminds me of my hometown in Italy (Siderno in Calabria). The trick is that absolutely nobody works, nobody expects anything from anyone, it's all just favours and helping eachother out. Every day there is a nationwide hour nap time (at 4pm, I got in trouble for not being quiet during this hour), constant wine and good food and just enjoying the fresh air. All of my uncles and grandparent's siblings are closing in on 100 years old. Italians know how to live without having an annual salary 😂😂
@@formgeben what rent? Everyone’s families built their houses and hand it down to each generation. Very few people work and if they do it’s just to pass by time or to make little cash. My family in Italy got their house by walking into it and saying it’s theirs now (old times) 🤣 But this only happens in the small towns, I don’t think my hometown has more than 15,000 people.
This is why I love travel. Human nature is to connect even with a total language barrier. I've been laughing all the way through and dying to go travelling again.
I’m sure my comments won’t reach you guys because it’s been a year but I just discovered yes theory and I can’t stop watching you guys. I was very depressed after my mother passing and just this video alone help me out of it. I love all your videos but sometimes they’re depressing because I would love to live That life. your videos are very motivating and uplifting. I’ve been falling asleep at night just listening to your videos in the background. I wish I had people like you in my life If I had the money I’d pack up everything I have and I go right and live in that town for the rest of my days. I’m 50 years old. Who knows how many more days I have left and would be nice to be around people that actually caring and know how to enjoy the little things in life. Thank you for everything you guys do your videos are very spiritual and all based in reality keep them coming. You show the world in reality not what we see on TV and the world is a beautiful and caring and amazing place I hope you guys know what you do for the community that follows you guys. God bless🙏🏻
The oldest woman reminds me of my grandma from Italy (I live in Belgium, but am Italian) who passed away this year at the age of 94 because of sudden bad health. She has always been healthy, very active, taking care of her large garden and being a confident woman, while living very modestly. If she didn't get suddenly sick, she definitely would have lived over a 100 years, like her siblings. I look up to her so much. Nonna, ti amo e mi manchi
My great grama lived to be 105. She was born in 1894. She passed away in 1999 in October. She almost lived in 3 different centuries. I can only imagine the changes she saw in the world during her lifetime.
This makes me so proud to be Sardinian. I have never had the opportunity to visit my gorgeous home country, but it’s so cool to see the beautiful and simple life they live. All i’ve ever wanted in life is to live like this, and this video has given me even more motivation to live life like my ancestors did. The way we live in America has always felt so wrong, and causes a lot of pain and depression. Thank you for the Incredible video, and for documenting my INCREDIBLE people!
All of America is not the same. My Grandmother lived as a farmers wife in the countrysides of the state of Iowa. She lived to 95. She was still right in her mind, but her body started declining. The doctor said it was probably due to a surgery she received in her early 40s. The surgery was done before they the medical community totally undestood the afterward ramifications of such a surgery. But she still lived to 95. She lost her husband around 40. She was a very kind person. Was Grandma to all, blood kin or not. She cooked food in the morning preparing for visitors even though no plans were already in place. She would say "someone will visit" She loved God and loved people because of it. So, please dont generalize America according to the state of the big cities. There is so much lovely culture away from the cities. Those that have simplier ways a life. When I asked Grandma what her secret to living longer is, she replied "stay the hell out of the doctors office" Cheers....... missing her. Evelyn was her name.
Italians have a great work ethic and a no-nonsense type of philosophy. Italians do not dwell on inequity, misery, and despair. They refuse to see themselves as victims. They accept life pretty much as it is and make the best of it. Italians appreciate life and love to live the good life as much as possible,. La Dolce Vita.
This video has to be one of my favorites so far, and I’ve been here since the beginning. Brought me so much joy to watch you become a part of the town. Thanks guys!
Sardinian here too! The food, culture and general lifestyle in my country is why the people live so long. It's a stunning country culturally, cuisine wise and architecturally. It has more history than you can imagine and the historical sites are dotted everywhere.
Loma Linda California seems good to be.....lunenburg and halifax nova scotia have a lot of centenarians. But not many supercentenarians. I'm stuck living in sarnia ontario
As an Italian, I am so happy you went on this adventure and got to experience the vitality and joy of this beautiful town. I also live in a small town in Italy and what you display in the video comes really close to what I experience when I'm back home. The sun, the food, the laughter, the environment and especially the people bring so much happiness. It's contagious happiness that really makes you appreaciate the simple things in life. Thank you for reminding me of home❤
WHETHER YOU BELIEVE IN GOD OR NOT YOU WILL KNEEL BEFORE HIM ON JUDGEMENT DAY AND HE WILL GO THROUGH EVERY WORD YOU SAID/EVERY THOUGHT YOU HAD/EVERY SIN YOU DID. YOU WONT BE ABLE TO ARGUE WITH HIM EITHER, YOU WILL KNOW YOU ARE GUILTY AND MADE A BIG MISTAKE. YOURE EITHER FOR GOD OR AGAINST GOD & THERE IS BUT 1 GOD (its not satan/buddha/allah). JESUS IS RETURNING VERY VERY SOON WITH JUDGEMENT! THINGS ARE ABOUT TO GET FAR WORSE THAN ANY TIME IN HISTORY. THE ONLY WAY OUT IS TO TURN TO JESUS BEFORE ITS TOO LATE. DONT BE LEFT BEHIND! Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."-John 14:6 "But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven."-Matthew 10:33 “For the wages of sin is death (hell), but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord”-Romans 6:23
I love this. When the woman showed up saying she's from Denmark, I was like "ofc you are" this place falls perfectly in line with Danish culture. It's perfectly normal to see young and old people drinking on the street or whereever. You can buy any alcohol in any store. I think I found my new place to move when I'm old.
Popping bars also expands youre life in this fcktup world.. no stress you say? 4 them it is easy they isolatited from the dirty city !!!!! again they old but stupid no english? Pff FOK that village
So basically. Flee the city and processed junk, be social and drink lots of wine and coffee. Seems simple, but so hard for most of the world to grasp. Another great video, thanks guys!
Western society and capitalism don't want people to live free. Our system either by design or simply cause/effect is made to keep us from achieving what these people have. Look at any small town in America and you'll find just as much blight as in bigger cites, in some cases more. The way we've been taught to live is no way to live at all.
As someone who spent 2 weeks in Italy as of recent, this video really captures the true kindness and hospitality of small town Italian locals, never felt more welcomed.
I m from Greece a mediterranean country close to Italy. Another blue zone is on the island of Icaria in the Aegean sea. I was amazed by the beauty of the island and the people. It is magnificent to see how many similarities Seulo and Icaria have, both have a very strong sense of community, with parties, celebration, kindness, mutual aid, local Mediterranean nutrition, wine and laughs and of course dance. They have a unique style of dancing which are very demanding for the physical activity aspect. I have been to many places in Greece and in Italy but only are not like Seulo and Icaria both places share some unique characteristics that we could learn some valuable lessons.
I'm glad that those over 100s never showed in the media because the hype and fame would probably killed them. Stay away from these people from ruining their normal lives.
@@amandablevins6809 Cost of living is low if you don’t pretend imported food. You can find a house without luxuries for rent on 300€, and for sale on 50.000 € ( but a separate villa with garden and quality finishes will cost you about 200.000.€ ). The problem is the job. Obviously in a small mountain village of 2000 inhabitants the basic jobs are pastoralism and agriculture and this is the main obstacle for a citizen who wants to move there without experience in this.
Yes, I immediately noticed the Greek style of hospitality, food and dancing. Many Greeks left Greece for Sardinia and Corsica during the reign of the Ottoman empire. You can see so many physical and cultural similarities.
They live longer because they are happy. Oh my goodness. Look what they eat, it's real good food, not the garbage we eat. Drinking wine is good for you and omg the town is beautiful. The people are friendly. They can leave keys in their doors and not have to worry.... Stress less= live longer. That's what's up. Beautiful ❤️
This was an incredible video! I loved the vibrancy and hospitality of the Sardinians. Every time I see the beauty and culture of Italy, I’m so proud of my ancestry. I feel a strong connection to its people, the land and the simple way of small village life. I often wonder what my life would have been like had my grandparents not immigrated to Canada at the turn of the century. I realize those were different times and different conditions which necessitated them leaving their homeland. One day, before I leave this world, I hope to be able to go to Italy, kiss the ground and be one with my Italian family. 🇮🇹🇨🇦
I got to go to my father's ancestral village at the end of Feb. I had been there as a child in 1958 and it impacted me. Our ancient house is still there but falling apart. An unscrupulous uncle stole it, primarily from me when my grandfather died and sold it so I couldn't go in, this time. But, it was a very emotional experience and if I win the lotto, I might try to buy back the property. The olive groves were sold off separately and no longer exist as a thriving farm that produces sellable oil. It would be hard to live there as it's in the mountains South of Salerno and at my age, I probably wouldn't want to drive although the road is good. I'd love to live there however, the people I did meet were very warm and welcoming.
Besides everything else they really seem to enjoy themselves and have a strong sense of community, they love each other. Can you imagine what America would be like if we were just a little like these wonderful people?
Once you go past a certain point in population this becomes impossible. Another thing I've observed over the years and in my travels is that people who don't have much are usually the ones who are the most giving and caring.
Will never happen. As a European I can tell you that there is a lack of culture in America. Everything is about work, guns, politics, bills, no life. Vacations are almost non existent. Just a lot of violence. Americans want to be different. Even when I tell someone of my friends that it's so different in Europe, their answer is, go back if you don't like it.
As a Sardinian I can say that these things are explained in various ways, first of all Sardinia has a very remote history, over 8000 years, so the inhabitants are very related to each other, and it has been shown from science that genetic isolation extends life. Then also put the quality of life, about 7 months a year with the sun and a welcoming climate, good Mediterranean food, very often genuine, the Sardinians of the countryside in fact rarely buy anything in the supermarket, they have meat, eggs, vegetables produced by their farm. And the game is done.
So I sure hope they pushed away the people with those injections; would be a tragedy if not. I have friends in Greece who were strong and healthy before this wicked poison arrived and now have cardiac and circulatory problems.
@@MsMesem Different populations retain genetic traits and genes even with migration, if the migration is not too much and they mix with the local population. If a certain set of genetic traits result in longer lives, it's going to survive. People in Sardinia have genes from all sorts of places, including Scandinavia. They still have their own genes even if they've mixed with others.
Coming from a small village in the Black Mountains of France, this felt exactly like home. People here drink wine all day, at lunch and in the evening, we leave our doors open, everyone is welcoming, and no one speaks a word of English. Half of my family is Italian, all the way to my mom, and French and Italian cultures are very close in many aspects
This is such a beautiful video, probably my favorite that you guys have made. So beautiful, thank you for sharing this adventure. I would love to visit there, they all look so content and happy and genuine.
I lived in Sardinia briefly as a child! Absolutely loved this video and reminiscing about that time. You can find such sweet and good-natured Sardinian people! The food and drink (or should I just say wine) is also amazing. SO happy you guys got to go. Congratulations on making your dreams come true with your channel.
Imagine living at a place where you can leave your key in the door and go about your business. Oh My! The people are so nice and friendly; no wonder they live so long.
@@trollkatt I think your comment is very hurtful to many, very ignorant & very hostile Just please remember this.....YOUR ancestors too, were immigrants, if they left their homeland and settled elsewhere. They hailed from somewhere & headed to another place, just as many of our ancestors did globally. Also, to suggest that ALL CRIME, ONLY STEMS FROM IMMIGRANTS, seriously, my gosh!! As most would know, you get the good and the bad within ALL ethnic groups on planet earth. NO ethnic group is perfect, completely and utterly crime free all day & all year round. My Dear late & very wise Grandmother used to say, "When discussing humanity as being flawed, it is so true & to think otherwise, is to fool only thyself". In other words, NO human, from any ethnic group is better than the other. Oh of course, some of the ridiculously written history books may tell you this, but most would be aware nowadays, that pretty much most of what they wrote was absolute untruth, only written to suit their own fake/false narratives/ideologies.
See how they hug and kiss, living so close to each other, not worrying about bugs and sickness. I think that's one of the things that makes a village community like this strong. First of all because of human touch and connection is healthy for us. The second thing is that their immune systems can fight off anything, because everyone is inoculated naturally. Third is the food and climate. Fourth, nobody is alone and lonely. You're part of a big family, like a tribe. Which is how humans lived for thousands of years until we built large cities and became lonely.
Yep, I was in Palermo in 2021 during the height of COVID. Most everyone was ignoring mask mandates and I made new friends whom I wound up kissing and hugging to say hello and good bye. We have no need of personal space and our own bubbles. In fact, I find that actually a bit offensive.
That works in a community of 1000 or less, but when you live in large high density cities with thousands coming & going from all over the world every day, there will always be a much higher disease transmission rate. Especially with new strains coming from other parts of the world that your'e not used to. You could be doing everything else right that the Blue Zones people do (close social interaction, eating clean food, movement) but still be much more likely to get sick.
My husband and I spent a month traveling Italy in 2019. What we loved the most was the sense of closeness; of community, even in the cities. Sadly, as Americans, we lack this bond in our own country. I am so thankful as it was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. THE FOOD & THE DRINK WAS SECOND TO NONE! If you get the chance to go…take that chance! 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹
yes, it's how life was and should be.....local produce, fresh air, sun...community....nature, sea.... everything we need...we dont need computers, high rise buildings et etc....
So excited to watch this video! I'm proudly Sardinian and it makes me incredibly proud to watch my Island and its amazing people portrayed in this video. You'll always be welcome in Sardinia ❤️
My Italian grandmother lived to be 105. She lived alone until her 90s in a 4 story house and was very active. She even recovered from a broken hip around 100 and then got covid and survived 😳. Maybe there's something in those Italian genes.
@@17luckynumbers yes the organic foods and drinsk, they also seem to be very stress free and community oriented which is extremely good for psychological health. Everyone talks to eachother and is generally cheerful and inviting to one another.. In America its quite the opposite
@@17luckynumbers That's the most likely explanation. No funny chemicals in the food or in what the animals consume that the people then eat. Same for the home made wine
this Video reminds me so much of my tours to Sevilla and Andalusia in southern Spain - open people who are happy to spend a lot of time with each other. Drinking, eating, laughing and making the best out what the situation is giving to you.
That Japanese blue zone town also has the same things in common. Working till the last days of your life, living with huge community, eating local healthy foods, stress free life and pollution free environment.

That was lovely, my grandparents lived to 98 and 101. Grandma Daisy drank hot water with lemon before each meal she also exercised daily but she kept busy same with grandma. Loved the joy found in that village it’s truly wonderful
Watching Andrea slowly transform from the grumpy yet willing tour guide, to getting hugged and kissed by the boys, and eventually cracking and smiling and laughing, was such a great side story to the main story of this magic little town.
The little smile and the hug with the backpats at the end of it was such a beautiful closure to that whole arc hahah, such a good vibe
yea, he was drunk ant that point...
Yeah for real seeing him picked up made me laugh 😂
too true
He just didn't like to get filmed, and later he forgot about cameras
Living there seems like it would be amazing. A secure and trusting community where everyone knows everyone and helps everyone. Seems wonderful.
people who havent lived in a village dont know shit about it and romanticizes it to oblivion
Taha Soomro it’s a lot better than being in the middle of the US
It’s called college
Niphyra quality of like in the US is terrible- especially in rural places… also u literally can’t go anywhere by foot in the US unless u live in a major city… Europe > US
That's how many horror movies start... :P
Something I think everyone is missing about this is that elders in these communities are celebrated, revered, and cherished. Elders are looked up to and are an integral part of the community. It has to be contributing to this effect of longer life. Sure, the wine and food and climate probably also help but a big part of it has to be the way they treat their elders. I'll put it this way: There aren't any nursing homes in Okinawa or Seulo.
100%
Exactly
Yeah it's just there lives are on a highly positive note,happy doing what ever they want and being happy and mostly surrounded by positive people. It makes us wonder how important mental health is
@@needless7682 %100
I honestly don’t think anybody is missing that at all I think all the people watching appreciate it more than they ever have before.
I’m 7 minutes into this video and I haven’t stopped smiling. What an adventure. I went to north wales when I was 14 in 1981. It was so strange to me how everyone wanted me to come to their homes for dinner. Even little kids said their mums wanted me to come over. I chose only one and ended up living there for a year and gained a new family.
Now that it’s over I’m in tears. So sad that it’s not like this everywhere. They don’t give a shit about fancy cars, clothes, homes or big money. It’s about love, family, friendship, laughter and community. People here in the US are always in the pursuit of money and material things, none of which brings true happiness. These people have all they want and need right there. Such a great video❤️
That’s why I’m going to leave the US as soon as can
@@DJDeviousI’m leaving the US in a few months from now and I’m moving to Sardegna. 🇮🇹 I can’t wait and hope that the community there will treat me like a human being.
@@MissRed92837 Where is that at
@@DJDevious I’m still trying to figure out to what city I want to move to. Most probably it will be Cagliari. I have been to Olbia approximately 20 years ago. It’s a nice city. But it seems the hospitals in Olbia are not that good. I’m in contact with a lady from Italy mainland and she has friends in Sardegna (Sardinia in English) and she will ask them to help me figure out what city/town would be the best for me. Are you also planning to move to Sardegna?
Really loved this one guys 🥹❤️
Naw yes thanks guys ❤️❤️❤️
Come to Sardiniaaaaa
love your channel!
Collab would be awesome!
Traveler!
Andrea is such a lad 😂 he seemed so fed up yet looked like he was having a good time. Such a great video, enjoyed it thoroughly.
Actual meance that guy😂
my grandparents live in seulo and i met andrea a few times
He died less than a week after this was shot :( RIP Andrea
@@agentmueller how do u know?
@@agentmueller u joking. howd u know? stop lying that's not cool
Andrea breaking down and giving us a smile at 17:07 is the absolute best. You guys grew on him so much from the start.
and it involved dancing, i think he hit his sweet spot :D
Andrea bete imbreaghera🤣🤣
Your answer is right there. They drink natural organic wine which is nothing but antioxidants, they stay very active and social well into their age and they treat each other with respect and kindness. Positivity goes a long way.
Absolutely. I firmly believe that stress is the biggest detriment to our health in so many ways, on a micro and macro level. Stress makes us lose sleep, disrupts our eating patterns, impacts our social relationships, leads us to engage in risky behaviours, and affects us cellularly by affecting healthy cell cycling and disrupting our immune system. Antioxidants help mitigate the cellular effects of stress, and all those other things that come along with stress, when they're avoided, our health is so much more easily maintained. I met the oldest man in Canada last year (112 years old i believe) and his secret to life was to avoid stress and have everything in moderation. He was still working out at a gym until he was around 107 or 108 and that's when he started to use a walker for the first time. He also had no mental impairments or hearing issues or anything. Pretty remarkable man. He said his siblings all lived past 95 as well.
We have the best wine in Sardinia. Period.
This one really hurt. As a depressed alcoholic and living in the city from pay check to pay check worried about bills and shit, this is what I probably ever wanted. Calm, peaceful, happy, stress free environment & just good vibes.
if something improves in your life please consider going to one of these places. Sorry that you are living paycheck to paycheck I hope your situation will improve.
If you can I would really suggest attempting to take a trip here. Vacations to these tiny towns in Europe aren't as expensive and if u budget u could really get the best out of thr experience.
Hope you'll have the strength to go seek it, bro.
set yourself free ..
I can 100% relate. I wish you strength.
As someone who was born and raised in Italy, and has Sardinian ancestors, this video was so beautifully done. Sardinia is truly the only place that will make you feel at home, no matter where you’re from, what language you speak, or who you are. This sense of community is something that you can find in many small, isolated italian cities, but it’ll never be as heart-warming as the one you experience in Seulo.
Thank you guys for representing this side of my country. Amazingly done.
My families home village in greece is the same way lol
I love how they made Andrea smile towards the end of the night. You guys are truly amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That guy was such a lovable grouch :))
@@leocarlton4364 Exactly, bro. Plus when he said something like, “I told you that earlier. What the fuck did you understand then?” 🤣
its so cool these kind of communities still exist and prosper around the world. in todays world with billions of people living in highly urbanized areas, its kind of reassuring that you can always drop everything and move to this kind of community, and be welcomed with open arms
My mother in law who is Italian worked until 100 as a matron on school bus for special needs children. She did not want to retire, but was forced because of Covid. She turned 102 in August. She eats healthy, bakes, and cooks fresh meals. She still gets around. Her husband was a Captain with 6th armored with General Patton liberated Buchenwald. She tells amazing stories.
She’s a Leo that explains her gusto for life
Wow! I had a friend I took care of who was also with Patton and helped deliver Buchenwald! He passed a few years ago with leukemia. The stories he told were chilling and he said there were many more he could not tell.
@@christinepemberton5077 Yes, my father in law told us some of the stories, but some he felt were too horrific.
@@nancyinthegarden3160 I'm an asparagus so I'll live till broccoli
BlueRose...please write down those stories, or have your children do it for you as you dictate. So many people would benefit from them and I'm certain they would make a great book.
I would buy it, and I haven't even heard the stories.
I am just sure of this
3:05 one look at the town and you can tell it's a special place. Beautiful landscape, wrapped in nature
👍
Bro I swear your comments keep bringing me back to your channel, you literally watch everything.
It's like Just Some Guy without a Mustache but with actual content and IMO better comments.
The fact Andrea offered to be their tour guide and was upset about it is so funny
Andrea was so funny 😂😂
he is like that mad uncle who is tasked to look at the visiting kids of his family in the park 😂😭💀
😂😂😂😂
The honesty was infectious. No fake personalities there just authentic ones 🙏🏽
@@Sunny74- Honesty and direct communication is vital in a small society to make it stronger. People show their feelings. You can't be second guessing intentions in a village where everyone depend on each other.
"The secret is...that the people of Seulo haven't discovered anything new, they've simply perfected the basic aspects of a healthy lifestyle that we already know..." - that was gold. Thank you for this video!
The key to a long life for Sardinians:
Low stress, Mediterranean diet, Daily sport activities (gardening), No added chemicals in foods, daily red wine (in moderation) love trust and compassion in a community. A pure natural life as intended for humans
The true paradise
And going vegan would be even better.
@@somedudeinatunnel3102 Nah. Naturally grown animal food is and has always been the most healthy food
@@somedudeinatunnel3102 Probably not I think vegans need to take supplements because you cant get everything you need from just vegetables. B12 and stuff
@@somedudeinatunnel3102 balanced diet of meat and veggies is the key to a healthy lifestyle, not being a vegan. Humans are like that since the early civilization.
Hey guys, as an italian i can tell you that this is the reality of 90% of the villages in Italy!! Community is what makes us stronger as a species!! Eating good food, laugh, stay outside, dance, and play music is what this life should be all about!! Very nice video! Take care ;)
i cant imagine how hard was the lockdown for all of you :(
@zoiu tooi these foreigners named it is as red blue zoned but they are simple villages with higher thinking
So ive heard !
I really wanna visit Italy someday
Laughter is medicine.
90%...? I live in a village in Italy but I can say it's totally different. In fact... Blue Zones are 5 in the world.
This was truly a masterclass discussion on discovery, exploration, and allowing yourself to become encapsulated by the environment around you. Unbelievable video with an incredible message, all done in 20 minutes. Yes Theory outdid themselves this time.
they really never miss
Wow what a beautiful comment, thank you so much ❤️ super proud and happy with both the experience and the story that came out it. Many lessons in this for us, I know I took many along with me!
@@YesTheory I feel like if I visited a place like that I wouldn’t wanna leave anymore to go back to my own life (myself being an Italian)
My grandma was born in Karelia, Finland in 1919 and she lived to be 100. She lived through the war and bombings, had to leave her hometown when the russians came, later bought a farm, had 11 kids who she raised and worked hard on her farm every day, Each summer she picked tens of litres of berries alone in a forest where she sometimes saw bears, and then sold the berries. With the money she travelled abroad. She kept doing this yearly routine until her late 80's. She was truly made of steel.

@@TJMaxximalist Incredible! I absolutely love the people and community there. They were so kind and welcoming. The Seventh Day Adventists are definitely doing something right :)
I'm really glad you had a great time here. Thank you for talking about the centenarians here, usually tourists usually come for beaches, so thank you for covering another aspect of life here. Sardinia is truly a beautiful place, it has a rich history and traditions. Unfortunately I am a bit worried about future tourists visiting small towns as they are getting more popular, tourism is already a problem here. If you plan on visiting please don't damage the environment, don't paint on rocks at the beach, don't take sand, shells and rocks. Please. Do not pollute. Be respectful.
they were resepectful. LOL!
@@lenseofanomad yes, they were! But unfortunately not everyone is like them
Why would I not be allowed to take some sand??
@@raulrus9026Many reasons, let me explain. If everyone stole stand, beaches would disappear. Just imagine every person on the beach takes the same amount of sand: a small bottle would turn into thousands of small bottles…
This is to say: never try to justify yourself with the thought of “it’s only me, what could possibly happen?”
It’s not only you. It never is. Some beaches have already been closed to the public because of excessive sand theft and many others became restricted access beaches for the same reason. Sand theft is actually illegal in Sardinia - as well as many other places in Italy. There are two separate laws to protect the environment from thieves. it is forbidden to take away sand, algae, shells/conchs, stones, pebbles, and living or dead animals (such as starfishes) from their place of origin. Tons and tons of sand have been stolen from Sardinia. Just in 2021 I think it was more than 6 tons. You are stealing something that can never be restored!! We have many better souvenirs. If you are someone that has stolen sand from Sardinia and you are reading this comment, please return it. You can contact the Sardinian government or local newspapers so that they can help you return it. Hope this explains, if you want to know more just google sardinia sand, there are many articles about it
@@Lil-lt8np thank you, I see that you are posionate about your home region, I have never been in Sardinia, I was asking because I saw in Italy and many countries by sea, bottles filled with sand and I was curious how a little bit could cause damage, but i forgot the sheer amount of tourists in Sardinia
I am lucky to say I am from Sardinia, happy life is being surrounded by genuine people which create a strong community where a person can immediately identify and belong. This is an authentic and simple life where we help each other without even asking. I wish more people were more kind to each other around the world. This Video made me smile. Thanks for sharing!
Do young people speak Sardinian with its dialects?

When I was in college I had to write a paper about happiest people on earth. One thing they all have in common is that they surround themselves with a supportive loving group. No isolation. I remember when the whole world was on lockdown and realize that depression was going to cause so much more damage in the long run especially with the elderly people. Sometimes the cure is worse than a disease. Never underestimate the power surrounding yourself with a loving supportive group whether it’s family, your local community, or Friends.
Sunlight and fresh air and living without fear.
Easy 2 say.. I am autisic i cant socialize it giving me stress always stress en my life exspesens is only 36 😭 i hate this video !, whatever they will burn anyway NOBODY STOPS CLIMATE CHANGE!
Totally agree with you
We had 80 trucks piled up with bodies in NYC even with shut downs. Sirens were going 24/7 for weeks. Connections with people are super important, but there's no need to dismiss the disease and the suffering it has caused plus even more suffering it could've caused with no precautions. So many had the chance to get vaxxed before getting infected which saved their lives and other's lives by keeping them out of the hospital. Though isolation wasn't really necessary by meeting outdoors and using proper respiratory protection. Most govs failed to prepare and are still not prepared for the future. Would you embrace ebola without living with fear? Saying that dismisses all the suffering that happened. As though there aren't downsides to disease which in this case included people suffering and dying alone.
@@xymzk it’s always sad when someone passes. According NOW to the those in Health department, almost 2 years later, they are confirming that getting the jab does not prevent you from getting infected. You can still get it and spread it. It might help you not get hospitalized, but honestly you can still get it and spread it while being fully jabbed. This is not a conspiracy, this is a fact. it’s called breakthrough infection and it happens in allot of cases with people that get the jab. Not everyone dies and not everybody ends up in the hospital. I’m just mentioning that because you’re saying that if most people would’ve gotten jab it could’ve been prevented and that is absolutely not true. I live in a big city. Miami to be exact. Right smack in the middle. I’ve spoken to many doctors that have told me that their patients are dying because they’re stuck in nursing homes or their homes and can’t leave there for regular office treatments so their preexisting illness continues to get worse because it goes untreated. Also did you see how many suicides came out of this? Just in teenage girls alone it rose 30 to 40%! Look it up please. Think about that for a second. Like really take a moment to think about how this lockdown caused 30 to 40% increase in teenage suicide. Not to mention depression, long term loneliness, long term anxiety, etc. People need sunlight. For many reasons. People need fresh air because that helps your oxygen levels. People need to be around loved ones and friends for mental health reasons. That’s how we are build. Now, here in the states some hospitals are being sued because of all the staff they fired for not getting jabbed, which now they admit that is completely useless from actually getting infected and spreading it. Not denying that this flu is real and it’s killed people, but also not denying how this lockdown also killed people for other very serious and very valid reasons. Lastly, i’m assuming you live in NYC. FYI, I can’t even tell you how many New York City license plates I’ve seen all over my city now. All over Florida to be exact because I traveled to Orlando not too long ago and was full of New Yorkers that moved there as well. I live close to coconut grove, and let me tell you going to my local movie theater and parking in the garage I’ve never seen so many New York tags. These lockdowns caused allot of people to have to relocate because of all the restrictions.

Hitchiked Sardinia in 2016 from West to East with my friends. We were a group of italians plus one colombian, but it still was a cultural shock. Among other stories, we found ourselves in this tiny village called Teti in the very center of the island, and we started a conversation with the locals just asking for a fountain. What followed was:
- a visit to a man's house who showed us his home grown cheese with worms
- a phone call to the major by his wife to let us spend the night in a very nice villa nearby (i guess owned by the municipality)
- a couple of hours with the aforementioned man plus his friends who offered us bottles after bottles of Ichnusa (local beer), while getting fed up at the idea of us paying a single round.
- an agreement to load us up his pick up truck (10 people) the next morning to take us to the next town.
- a very comfortable night.
- the aforementioned ride, the next morning, thanks to his son who gladly spent the rest of the morning with us at the bar of the aforementioned next town, offering us more beers and appetizers than his father the night before.
This video brought me back to those days. Thanks!
I wonder if that's where my dad's family was from it was an island off Italian, friendly people.

I've never had to read aforementioned so much on my life
It's so sweet how people are always trying their best to communicate with you guys in a language that is not theirs and how happy they seem to feed you and love you like they've known you forever. 😭😭😭 Human beings are great!
"The people of Seulo haven't discovered anything new but they have simply perfected the basic aspects of a healthy lifestyle.." - and this guys is the true meaning of live. It's all about simplicity and happiness
Bad things do happen no matter what. Don't believe everything is perfect there. And that's how you get a perfect and happier life.
"Going in with no plan is just the best" I couldn't agree more with that phrase. Whenever you don't set any expectations and just go with the flow, doing whatever seems right in the moment is so beautiful and I'm still working on being focused on the present, not plan way too far ahead and all of that stuff, so watching this video really reminded me of how important it is to not overwhelm yourself wit the future and just live life :)
And you have an even better experience. I can 100% guarantee you will have a better experience if you're open to their language, customs, culture, and not constantly fighting with them because they have different political opinions. Enjoy the food. Enjoy the people. Don't be patronizing. And you will have a nice trip. No matter where you go.

As an Italian there are two things that amazed me during this video:
1) Sardinian language/dialect is quite tough to understand
2) I really love your reaction and how surprised you were when you saw those people inviting you to drink or eat something. I always took it for granted as it is quite common in Italy to do so (and I’m from a city in the south of Italy.. just imagine how it usually is in a small town or in a village).
Yeah, leaving the key in the door in case somebody needs something is a new one on me. I've experienced places where the door is never locked, but not one where the key is left in the door. Also, I grew up in upstate NY where you could drop by and visit somebody whenever you feel like it. Then I moved to CA in '77 and you have to make an appointment or an arrangement to go to somebody's house, you can't just drop by and almost everybody kept the doors locked. Totally opposite from what I'm used to. It took me years to get used to that. I still talk to perfect strangers at the store or on the street or while waiting in line and some people look at me like I'm nuts, but that's how I grew up. It's a lot more friendlier there.
@@C.M.30337 I feel you I lived in a small town in Wyoming, all doors unlocked kind of town then moved to Arizona it was a culture shock. Am moving back to Wyoming in a month though and am excited
Dialect is very rough you have be born to really speak this language its not Italian or Calabrese very different all together!!
@@C.M.30337 I was so amazed by watching this. The whole village coming together. Friends, family, neighbours. And people opening their house to you for food and drinks.
I live in Sweden and here it is exactly as you described it in CA. You have to have an appoitment. And always just close family and friends visiting. Having neighbours or strangers over for food and drinks are Very uncommon.
I feel like we here live with very closed doors, both physically and mentally.
would you say it's like how patois in jamaica is difficult to understand to regular english speakers?
The video is worth watching, I truly enjoyed every second of it. Italy is my favorite European country, and this town stole my heart. The people are so welcoming, kind, and vibrant. Living a long life is not something unexpected, they eat healthy, leave their keys in doors ( for guests and tourists), sing, dance, and always smile!
I don't think I stopped smiling once whilst watching this! How great. My mother lives in a small village in Portugal with a very similar lifestyle, fresh own grown produce and a stress free life is the key. Andrea, the adopted tour guide, was enjoying it deep down :)
Hi! I'm from Portugal, can you tell me where is the village you're talking about? :)

The grumpy guy was hilarious :D If you want to learn more, you should read 'Ikigai'. They did studies on the people of Okinawa, Japan and basically found the same thing: purpose, community, healthy surroundings and food and an active lifestyle within the community. :)
I'm reading the book currently and thought what a timing this video came out.
I'm also currently reading this book and a few other similarly themed ones about the Japanese way of life and viewpoints
It really is such a good book!👏🏻😊
Read that book a few years ago, and immediately got reminded of it while watching the videos. I can only recommend it to anyone, it‘s timeless advice there. We act as things always need to be so complicated, when really we should just treat each other as human beings with human needs. Istg we all need community, no wonder all these wisdoms have been lost when we moved to grand cities, at the same time being constantly connected to everything and everyone yet mental health rapidly declining and people contradictory feeling more alone. Little respect is shown to the elders, they usually get tucked away in nursing homes and live as if they aren‘t part of society anymore. It‘s really all rather sad. I think people are realizing this more and more, and I hope communal living with smaller provinces near the city will becomes more and more popular again. I‘m not saying you can‘t be happy in a city, but it‘s just different idk how to explain.
I want a comedy show starring Andrea😂 And living in a community like this is the ultimate goal
Yup man 😂😂
I think one of the main factors the people can live so long is how social the whole town was. Reminds me of the longest ongoing study done by Harvard that strongly linked long life with the number of close relationships each person had
I've always found blue zones fascinating! If you look at the geographical position, most blue zones are in warmer climates, where you can spend a lot of time outdoors and connected to nature, growing your food and socialising. Community is so important and in my experience certain cultures have stronger daily social connections. These people are the best example of how to be content in life❤️
but what if I like the snow
@@mintberrycrunch1752 most places with snow in the winter have lots of sunshine! If you go to the Alps the winters are mostly blue skies + sunshine. It's the oceanic climate that is usually windy, rainy and cloudy all year round (UK, Belgium, The Netherlands, Denmark, northwest France, Vancouver)
I am from Sardinia ❤️ now living in Sweden. Ohh how much I missed my island while watching this! I loved to see you guys having a great time in my homeland, I could almost taste the food and the wine locally produced (and then bottled in plastic water bottles haha) I had the most of fun dancing in big groups with friendly strangers during festivals on warm summer nights..Sardinia is a special place, and visitors - as long as they are respectful and curious about our culture- are treated like kings and queens. Kudos for the precious content ✨
Healthy local sourced foods, cleaner air, positive environment filled with friends and family all definitely contribute to a greater fulfillment in the peoples lives in the 'blue zones' which could possibly be a factor in the reason they live longer
thats what i thought
Yeah im depresses af full of work stress over here
Watching this was like seeing a vision of a dream world. The fact that this level of true love and community exists on the same planet I am currently on brings me a lot of joy. I want to see the whole world like this.
I think the reason they live so long is because they live a happy life. Just look how friendly they are, no crime, it's a paradise in it's own way.
Stress free life most definitely helps with ageing
They are certainly happy. They support one another. There is love and trust. And there is clean air, healthy food. Each person has intrinsic value here.
Bingo!
There is crime in Italy. However, it is nowhere near as high as in America. Italians are happy and appreciate the good life. No place is perfect. Italy has its share of social problems that some people would find unacceptable.
and their food is organic, not poisoned with pesticides and chemicals like the government do to ours, plus the government put flouride poisons and other chemicals to our water too .
I'm a Sardinian leaving in Kenya and watching this video made me feel at home for a while (and proud of it to be honest). Love you guys
Wow
hope you enjoy kenya..
Why would u leave Sardinia? Seems like paradise.
You should feel proud, they are all fantastic people.
It seems like quite a small community, do you know these people in the video?
I've lived in Greece for 13 years and also noticed that most people aged over 70 use to return to the village where they come from, or have been living there their entire life. The difference between villages and big cities in my opinion is the stress. Stress is a very big factor in someone lifespan. Living Stress-free means you can live longer.

I feel like this is a general older Italian lifestyle. My grandparents are from Sicily and a lot of this town I see in their lives in NJ. They knew everyone on their street, feeding anyone and everyone, gardening into old age and keeping very active. Also a common stubborn old Italian move is unwilling to wear hearing aids and having people shout at you instead :P

I've lived in Loma Linda my entire life. When I was old enough to explore surrounding cities, it became more clear as to why it is a blue zone. Loma Linda is filled with people who have really strong values when it comes to their health. Small businesses who observe Sabbath will close on Saturdays so the owners can focus on their faith and their family/home. Many locals practice a vegetarian diet. Even the Loma Linda Medical Center / Hospital only serves vegetarian food (for the most part). The local grocery stores still don't sell hard liquor. When I was 11 or 12, my parents opened up a small care facility for the elderly and I had the opportunity to meet several centenarians growing up. I have since moved a few cities away recently and it has already affected me mentally because I’m seeing less of those values. It's nice to see videos that bring exposure to these small towns because these centenarians deserve recognition!
IKR We push so much in America to do everything we can fit in our schedules and demand every convenience; when you are used to a regular schedule that allows time to just relax with neighbors it isn’t so bad.
I agree they do need to be recognized and we should be willing to learn this. Maybe if we did we all would get along much better then we do now. I definitely will learn from this and those alike. Thank you
In this video, I see that they eat meat. So I think being stress free and happiness is the secret to a long life. 😊
Not out of respect but Loma Linda is a smog sec pool I'm surprised if anyone lives to 60.
I think a big factor is stress. They seem so stress-free there. I think the stress we carry from having to pay bills or go to functions really weighs on us over time.
Dude my parents are from a Village near Seulo, so i get the chance to spent almost all my Summer vacation there, and i can tell ya they do LIVE with stress. But yeah It could be less amount than in the city
This warms my heart so much to see such a strong community, they all know each other, they just share and laugh together! They just live happily, no worries.

haha this reminds me of my hometown in Italy (Siderno in Calabria). The trick is that absolutely nobody works, nobody expects anything from anyone, it's all just favours and helping eachother out. Every day there is a nationwide hour nap time (at 4pm, I got in trouble for not being quiet during this hour), constant wine and good food and just enjoying the fresh air. All of my uncles and grandparent's siblings are closing in on 100 years old. Italians know how to live without having an annual salary 😂😂

The oldest woman reminds me of my grandma from Italy (I live in Belgium, but am Italian) who passed away this year at the age of 94 because of sudden bad health. She has always been healthy, very active, taking care of her large garden and being a confident woman, while living very modestly. If she didn't get suddenly sick, she definitely would have lived over a 100 years, like her siblings. I look up to her so much. Nonna, ti amo e mi manchi
How old were you when you moved to Belgium?
My great grama lived to be 105. She was born in 1894. She passed away in 1999 in October. She almost lived in 3 different centuries. I can only imagine the changes she saw in the world during her lifetime.

All of America is not the same. My Grandmother lived as a farmers wife in the countrysides of the state of Iowa. She lived to 95. She was still right in her mind, but her body started declining. The doctor said it was probably due to a surgery she received in her early 40s. The surgery was done before they the medical community totally undestood the afterward ramifications of such a surgery.
But she still lived to 95. She lost her husband around 40.
She was a very kind person. Was Grandma to all, blood kin or not. She cooked food in the morning preparing for visitors even though no plans were already in place. She would say "someone will visit"
She loved God and loved people because of it. So, please dont generalize America according to the state of the big cities. There is so much lovely culture away from the cities. Those that have simplier ways a life.
When I asked Grandma what her secret to living longer is, she replied "stay the hell out of the doctors office"
Cheers....... missing her. Evelyn was her name.
Italians have a great work ethic and a no-nonsense type of philosophy. Italians do not dwell on inequity, misery, and despair. They refuse to see themselves as victims. They accept life pretty much as it is and make the best of it. Italians appreciate life and love to live the good life as much as possible,. La Dolce Vita.

I love this. When the woman showed up saying she's from Denmark, I was like "ofc you are" this place falls perfectly in line with Danish culture. It's perfectly normal to see young and old people drinking on the street or whereever. You can buy any alcohol in any store. I think I found my new place to move when I'm old.
She was very "Italianized" in her manner. I'm not too familiar with Danish culture but if you're anything like the Dutch, I agree.
Awesome hospitality.

Low stress and living in community is important, I think that the friendliness and the lack of proper security on the doors says it all
Popping bars also expands youre life in this fcktup world.. no stress you say? 4 them it is easy they isolatited from the dirty city !!!!! again they old but stupid no english? Pff FOK that village
So basically. Flee the city and processed junk, be social and drink lots of wine and coffee. Seems simple, but so hard for most of the world to grasp. Another great video, thanks guys!
Yeah
Western society and capitalism don't want people to live free. Our system either by design or simply cause/effect is made to keep us from achieving what these people have. Look at any small town in America and you'll find just as much blight as in bigger cites, in some cases more. The way we've been taught to live is no way to live at all.
Also socialize with your own small community, work as little in village duties, and keep interacting with members of your own community.
Yep. But limited employment opportunities in country areas.
I think this video saved me today. Thank you. Seek discomfort and find joy in the little things! Well said
As someone who spent 2 weeks in Italy as of recent, this video really captures the true kindness and hospitality of small town Italian locals, never felt more welcomed.
I m from Greece a mediterranean country close to Italy. Another blue zone is on the island of Icaria in the Aegean sea. I was amazed by the beauty of the island and the people. It is magnificent to see how many similarities Seulo and Icaria have, both have a very strong sense of community, with parties, celebration, kindness, mutual aid, local Mediterranean nutrition, wine and laughs and of course dance. They have a unique style of dancing which are very demanding for the physical activity aspect. I have been to many places in Greece and in Italy but only are not like Seulo and Icaria both places share some unique characteristics that we could learn some valuable lessons.
I'm glad that those over 100s never showed in the media because the hype and fame would probably killed them. Stay away from these people from ruining their normal lives.
How much is the cost of living there? What types of jobs are there.
Wonderful
@@amandablevins6809 Cost of living is low if you don’t pretend imported food. You can find a house without luxuries for rent on 300€, and for sale on 50.000 € ( but a separate villa with garden and quality finishes will cost you about 200.000.€ ). The problem is the job. Obviously in a small mountain village of 2000 inhabitants the basic jobs are pastoralism and agriculture and this is the main obstacle for a citizen who wants to move there without experience in this.
Yes, I immediately noticed the Greek style of hospitality, food and dancing. Many Greeks left Greece for Sardinia and Corsica during the reign of the Ottoman empire. You can see so many physical and cultural similarities.
They live longer because they are happy. Oh my goodness. Look what they eat, it's real good food, not the garbage we eat. Drinking wine is good for you and omg the town is beautiful. The people are friendly. They can leave keys in their doors and not have to worry.... Stress less= live longer. That's what's up. Beautiful ❤️
This was an incredible video! I loved the vibrancy and hospitality of the Sardinians. Every time I see the beauty and culture of Italy, I’m so proud of my ancestry. I feel a strong connection to its people, the land and the simple way of small village life. I often wonder what my life would have been like had my grandparents not immigrated to Canada at the turn of the century. I realize those were different times and different conditions which necessitated them leaving their homeland. One day, before I leave this world, I hope to be able to go to Italy, kiss the ground and be one with my Italian family. 🇮🇹🇨🇦
italy never lose his childs, they just go exploring.
I got to go to my father's ancestral village at the end of Feb. I had been there as a child in 1958 and it impacted me. Our ancient house is still there but falling apart. An unscrupulous uncle stole it, primarily from me when my grandfather died and sold it so I couldn't go in, this time. But, it was a very emotional experience and if I win the lotto, I might try to buy back the property. The olive groves were sold off separately and no longer exist as a thriving farm that produces sellable oil. It would be hard to live there as it's in the mountains South of Salerno and at my age, I probably wouldn't want to drive although the road is good. I'd love to live there however, the people I did meet were very warm and welcoming.
Besides everything else they really seem to enjoy themselves and have a strong sense of community, they love each other. Can you imagine what America would be like if we were just a little like these wonderful people?
my town is exactly like this, in MS.
Once you go past a certain point in population this becomes impossible.
Another thing I've observed over the years and in my travels is that people who don't have much are usually the ones who are the most giving and caring.
@@LethalTurd 100%.
@@LethalTurd SO VERY TRUE 💯 🙆🏼♂️ 🤷🏼♂️ I WONDER WHY THAT IS???
Will never happen. As a European I can tell you that there is a lack of culture in America.
Everything is about work, guns, politics, bills, no life. Vacations are almost non existent. Just a lot of violence.
Americans want to be different. Even when I tell someone of my friends that it's so different in Europe, their answer is, go back if you don't like it.
As a Sardinian I can say that these things are explained in various ways, first of all Sardinia has a very remote history, over 8000 years, so the inhabitants are very related to each other, and it has been shown from science that genetic isolation extends life. Then also put the quality of life, about 7 months a year with the sun and a welcoming climate, good Mediterranean food, very often genuine, the Sardinians of the countryside in fact rarely buy anything in the supermarket, they have meat, eggs, vegetables produced by their farm. And the game is done.
So I sure hope they pushed away the people with those injections; would be a tragedy if not. I have friends in Greece who were strong and healthy before this wicked poison arrived and now have cardiac and circulatory problems.
I want to move there.
Genetic isolation extends life? Nonsense. Obvious from their culture that they have some Greek blood. Both Corsica and Sardinia received migration.
@@MsMesem Different populations retain genetic traits and genes even with migration, if the migration is not too much and they mix with the local population. If a certain set of genetic traits result in longer lives, it's going to survive. People in Sardinia have genes from all sorts of places, including Scandinavia. They still have their own genes even if they've mixed with others.
It looks like exercise is also part of the reason that they live so long. Hills, manual work, walking, and dancing.
Coming from a small village in the Black Mountains of France, this felt exactly like home. People here drink wine all day, at lunch and in the evening, we leave our doors open, everyone is welcoming, and no one speaks a word of English. Half of my family is Italian, all the way to my mom, and French and Italian cultures are very close in many aspects
Sardinian
This is such a beautiful video, probably my favorite that you guys have made. So beautiful, thank you for sharing this adventure. I would love to visit there, they all look so content and happy and genuine.
I lived in Sardinia briefly as a child! Absolutely loved this video and reminiscing about that time. You can find such sweet and good-natured Sardinian people! The food and drink (or should I just say wine) is also amazing. SO happy you guys got to go. Congratulations on making your dreams come true with your channel.
Imagine living at a place where you can leave your key in the door and go about your business. Oh My! The people are so nice and friendly; no wonder they live so long.
@@trollkatt I think your comment is very hurtful to many, very ignorant & very hostile
Just please remember this.....YOUR ancestors too, were immigrants, if they left their homeland and settled elsewhere. They hailed from somewhere & headed to another place, just as many of our ancestors did globally.
Also, to suggest that ALL CRIME, ONLY STEMS FROM IMMIGRANTS, seriously, my gosh!! As most would know, you get the good and the bad within ALL ethnic groups on planet earth.
NO ethnic group is perfect, completely and utterly crime free all day & all year round.
My Dear late & very wise Grandmother used to say, "When discussing humanity as being flawed, it is so true & to think otherwise, is to fool only thyself".
In other words, NO human, from any ethnic group is better than the other.
Oh of course, some of the ridiculously written history books may tell you this, but most would be aware nowadays, that pretty much most of what they wrote was absolute untruth, only written to suit their own fake/false narratives/ideologies.
Nothing beats the hospitality of Southern Italy.
It's just such an amazing thing. 🥰
This is an island off the coast of central Italy.
Not southern Italy.
This is not southern italy
dai raga, si puo tranquillamente considerare sud italia per usi e costumi
@@diegone080 in Italy we call south Italy because of culture and history...
See how they hug and kiss, living so close to each other, not worrying about bugs and sickness. I think that's one of the things that makes a village community like this strong. First of all because of human touch and connection is healthy for us. The second thing is that their immune systems can fight off anything, because everyone is inoculated naturally. Third is the food and climate. Fourth, nobody is alone and lonely. You're part of a big family, like a tribe. Which is how humans lived for thousands of years until we built large cities and became lonely.
Yep, I was in Palermo in 2021 during the height of COVID. Most everyone was ignoring mask mandates and I made new friends whom I wound up kissing and hugging to say hello and good bye. We have no need of personal space and our own bubbles. In fact, I find that actually a bit offensive.
@@tinalettieri It is very unhealthy in my opinion to isolate from others no hugs or kisses or touch, just sickening.
That works in a community of 1000 or less, but when you live in large high density cities with thousands coming & going from all over the world every day, there will always be a much higher disease transmission rate. Especially with new strains coming from other parts of the world that your'e not used to. You could be doing everything else right that the Blue Zones people do (close social interaction, eating clean food, movement) but still be much more likely to get sick.
My husband and I spent a month traveling Italy in 2019. What we loved the most was the sense of closeness; of community, even in the cities. Sadly, as Americans, we lack this bond in our own country. I am so thankful as it was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. THE FOOD & THE DRINK WAS SECOND TO NONE! If you get the chance to go…take that chance! 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹
I want to go so bad but can't find anyone to go with who can afford the time & money.
yes, it's how life was and should be.....local produce, fresh air, sun...community....nature, sea.... everything we need...we dont need computers, high rise buildings et etc....
And when it happens its for wrong reasons (In America

So excited to watch this video! I'm proudly Sardinian and it makes me incredibly proud to watch my Island and its amazing people portrayed in this video.
You'll always be welcome in Sardinia ❤️
As you should be, being Italian is a gift. Love from Greece!
can you translate what the old guy said to them?
Anch'iooo sono sarda!! cerco da anni YesFam in Sardegna, ma ho conosciuto solo una persona, dobbiamo unirci :')
@@TheWildCrue Idem, io non ho ancora trovato nessuno però ahah
@@antoniocorona984 Daii dobbiamo trovare un modo, ho sempre sognato di organizzare un meetup da qualche parte in sardegna!!
My Italian grandmother lived to be 105. She lived alone until her 90s in a 4 story house and was very active. She even recovered from a broken hip around 100 and then got covid and survived 😳. Maybe there's something in those Italian genes.
sardinian and italians have different and distinct genetics pools.
I think it's the food! No chemicals, all fresh.
Did she do the vax afterwards?
@@17luckynumbers yes the organic foods and drinsk, they also seem to be very stress free and community oriented which is extremely good for psychological health. Everyone talks to eachother and is generally cheerful and inviting to one another.. In America its quite the opposite
@@17luckynumbers That's the most likely explanation. No funny chemicals in the food or in what the animals consume that the people then eat. Same for the home made wine
Where have these videos been in my life?!? I love these so much!
this Video reminds me so much of my tours to Sevilla and Andalusia in southern Spain - open people who are happy to spend a lot of time with each other. Drinking, eating, laughing and making the best out what the situation is giving to you.
I'm Moroccan and had the chance to live in this beautiful island for more than 3 years, definitely a paradise on earth.
That Japanese blue zone town also has the same things in common.
Working till the last days of your life, living with huge community, eating local healthy foods, stress free life and pollution free environment.
