    Thanks Al for the chalk board memories. In my school we had an eraser vacumn device that would clean the erasers so we didn’t soil our uniforms. 😂

    Great Advice from Alfredo regarding pharmacies. I walked out of several pharmacies with name brand prescription meds that’s you can purchase over the counter in Sicily without a prescription for a fraction of the cost.

    Go to Mosia, a small island off the west coast of Sicily, near Marsala. Settled by the Phoenicians, has not been restored. A couple of miles north of Marsala, is a small dock, with a small boat that will take you there.

    Fantastico, Eszter!! We were just in all those places in October & November. I agree with Alfred, as you know my home village is the Madonie Mountains - Locati-Bompietro. My tip - The enormous field of Tulips (tulipano) between Locati and Blufi when they are in bloom in theSpring -A sight to behold. Also, A view of Mt. Etna on a clear day from Petralia Soprana. Attend a small town festival in the Madonie Mountains, a genuine, authentic experience!

    Was just in Sicily three weeks ago, really like Sicily better than Rome,Florence &Assisi. Visited relatives in Castellammare del Golfo and toured Palermo, Cefalu,Monreale,Erice,& Segesta. The only problem I had was walking the inclines since having quadruple bypass and recently had a pacemaker installed.

    • @YouMeandSicily

    Hi 😊 We are going to Italy in May 2024 for the first time 🎉 We are a mid 30's couple with a 18-month old baby. We are avid travellers and foodies.
    We are landing in Rome, and we want to head to Sicily right after visiting the "essential". We plan on flying to Palermo since it is such a foodies paradise.
    After Palermo, we would like to settle for 5-6 nights somewhere. We would like someplace as much as off the beaten path possible. We are aiming for authenticity, and awesome food. Size of the town does not matter. We want to stay away from tourist traps or resorts kind of town. The less spoken English the better 😂
    Would you have any villages recommandations?
    Gracie mille

    • @YouMeandSicily

    Get full collision coverage in Sicily.
    Can you drive a standard....on a hill from a stop sign?
    Start walking now to get use to Sicily.
    Bring an equivalent of Pepto with you. Pack some Motrin too.
    Do not dress too casual.
    Get lost, really. Some of our best memories are the interactions with locals. Those over 40, especially away from the coast speak no English.
    Learn to say hello and thank you in Sicilian...it breaks the ice.
    Get out of your comfort zone. Put your phone away.
