Truth be told - I’d known nothing about Sicily and life there until I watched your videos. You’ve expanded my exposure to this gigantic, diverse and fascinating world we share! Thank you for this public service! Happy New Year!
I am really enjoying watching you from Mt Brydges Ontario Canada. You are such positive energetic warm people. I appreciate your efforts in bringing your experiences to us. It allows me to live that life vicariously through you! Keep up the great work!
Enjoy seeing you two and what you get up to there in Sicily. The scenery and the culture is just stunning. And, who doesn't love Massimo? Have a great year.
Thank you so much for the wonderful year-end video, bravo,....bravo....bravo....You really stir up my my Sicilian genes. Wishing you the best that 2025 has to offer. I too have been working on my Italian. Wishing you both a Happy New Year
Hey Ciao...enjoy your videos thru the year. Wishing you both a healthy and happy new years. Buon Anno from a sicilian that lives in the usa. That blue sicilian sky with those white fluffy clouds e meraviglioso. Wish i was there. La vita e bella in sicilia.
Dear Beth and Brian, how nice it is to see you! My name is Bella, I’m from the south of Russia, I’ve been watching you for almost a year now and haven’t missed a single episode! I wish you a lot of health, joy and meetings with amazing people!
Your channel has truly been my favorite discovery of the year. Thank you for sharing your life with us. I love your attitude, your infectious energy, and your inspiring approach to life. Wishing you all the best, and I can’t wait to see what amazing content you’ll share with us next. Happy New Year to you!
Thank you for including us in your story. I look forward to your videos. You've kept me in touch in some small way with my Sicilian heritage. All the best in 2025.
Happy New Year and thank you for sharing your year. I remember them individually but to see them all together was a lot of fun! I'm looking and I just received my passport today 😁😁!!!! "Peace Out"!!
There are so many RUclips videos telling me how wonderful life is in Italy; how good the food is, how affordable life is, how friendly the people are - how much I need to move to Italy and of course, to like and subscribe. There is an equal number of videos telling me how bad the bureaucracy is, how hard it is to get a driver's license; how isolating it will be not speaking the language - how much I need to second think things and of course, to like and subscribe. You don't "tell" me anything, you share your life. I watch those other videos for selfish reasons, to gather information; for planning, but I haven't subscribed to any of them. I subscribed to your channel and watch your videos for my interest in you, what you're doing and, for what Massimo might be up to next. I suppose that's selfish too, but selfish delight. We're in the US for the foreseeable future and 2025, for us at least, brings only trepidation. Let's hope the new year affords you no such anxiety and brings you only peace and prosperity. Just keep an eye on Massimo😁
Buon Anno Beth e Brian! Grazie perché amate il mio Paese, e perché sapete perdonarne i difetti e godere delle sue meraviglie. Che sia per voi un altro anno di amore e di progressi.
Thank you soooo much for all the work you do in getting your videos posted. I’m learning so much from you as I prepare to do something similar on the north coast of Sicily. The two of you together, your zest for life, and ‘can do’ spirit are so inspiring!! 💕God bless you both… and Buon Anno!
Bravi! Grazie per farci participare nella vostra vita! Auguri per il 2025🎉 e bravi di capire di imparare l'italiano ( e un po' il siciliano😊) perche' e' indispensabile! 😅 i migliori auguri per voi!!🎉🎉😊
Happy New Year! Beth and Brian. Thank you for all the work it takes to put out these wonderful videos. I enjoy them so very much. And I hope I get to meet you when I'm in Sicily this fall.
Happy New Year!!! Thank you so very much for taking the time (it IS a lot of work to do these videos. The editing….ugh!!) to do these videos, and for just being willing to share a portion of your life with complete strangers! I look forward to your videos each week, believe it or not, and I love living (just a little bit!) vicariously through you . I hope 2025 treats you both well, and that you get the inside of your house done before Brian completely loses it. 😂😜 Cheers!!
Best video yet the clouds above your heads and the green scenery were so beautiful the Olive trees! Beth you could write a children’s book for your grandchildren about the trees their names and weave together a story about them and how they are reborn for the next generation. It’s funny because I can relate to you a bit more from CT Boston Fans living in CA friends and fam still in New England and we also have some in Oregon one of our fav places. I am a retired teacher planning on moving to Italy 1/2 Italian working on my citizenship. Really still watching this you look like a postcard really!!! Happy New Year… bet you’re glad you are over there now! Also the France part we studied French forever in Connecticut I still need to learn Italian formally well thank you! 🇮🇹🇺🇸🌲
Happy New Year Beth and Brian! Thank you so much for including us on your adventure! I look forward to every video and so enjoy you both and the places that you take us! See you in 2025!🎉
Such a great video! Happy New from Tulsa! I am married to an Italian from Pistoia , Italy. We have been married 12 years and I am STILL not fluent! Shame on me! So you guys can do it!!! 🎉❤
So Noto will just have to wait to make your Top 10 List? Hopefully in 2025 we"ll make the cut. We do want to go with you guys to Carnevale in Palazzolo if that is possible. That looks really fun. Love you both and so happy we've met. Happy New Year! Buon Anno! Tanti Auguri! Baci Baci Baci.
We appreciate you sharing your experiences. We are also learning a lot about Sicily for our trip in June 2026. Your life really looks wonderful and a lot of fun. Happy New Year to you both.
My blood pressure always seems to drop after watching, which is a perfect way to wind down on a Sunday night. My favorite part this year was definitely the olive trees and other nature scenes. Looking forward to seeing the vineyard and home renovations. Happy New Year! I appreciate y’all making 2024 more enjoyable for me!
You are doing great on the editing. I really like your style of videos. I feel like we get to know you through your stories and I really enjoy watching every episode. Happy New Year!!
Siete una coppia meravigliosa Buon anno nuovo sperando sempre sia più bello sereno e possibilmente con meno stronzi di quelli che avete incontrato quest’anno, mi riferisco a chi vi ha tagliato le gomme dell’auto al vigile che vi ha fatto la multa ai ragazzi dell’ikea che non vi hanno aiutato a caricare i mobili e al frantoio che vi stava fregando l’olio. Fortunatamente ci sono tante persone di cuore che meritano tanto..una fra tutte Massimo.
Thank you! I have enjoyed and watched from the start of your vlog! You have given a fantastic view of Sicilian culture from my couch with Beths giggles and Brian your glint from your eyes. 🇨🇦❤️❤️
Hi Brian & Beth, Happy holidays & a Very Happy New Year 2025 to you both. 🎉🥂. Thank you so much for allowing my husband & I a glimps into your new life & adventure. We are living vicariously through you both until we get to visit the island in Sept-Oct next year to see if this would be a good fit for us to add to our list. Can I ask you what is the new word you are using on your opening sequence instead of andiamo? Thanks! All the best to you both! 😘
Truly loved the video of this last year guys! So great to see all of the highlights on one video. Can't wait to see what you bring us in 2025 Beth and Brian! A presto. J and D
If you haven't been yet, try to go to the Paolo Orsi Museo in Siracusa (free first Sunday of the month) to see the amazing doors from the big famous tomb in Castelluccio. Really incredible.
I have enjoyed the episodes that I have seen. Yes, you get down (who doesn’t?). However, for the most part, you are always upbeat. Happy New Year to you and Beth and your families. What village is it that you are located near?
Love you guys! I'll be in Sicily in March and want to go to the Almond Festival in Agrigento. I will have a car. Is parking difficult? Should I take a bus or train? I'll just be there for a day. Thanks so much.
Happy New Year to you both. It's been a lot of fun watching what you're doing! I'm looking forward to seeing what you do next year. As far as the language is concerned, get a good tutor and get the basics down. Once you're both comfortable with the grammar and have a good chunk of vocab under your belts, you're good to go! Practice on each other and find yourselves a language parent to help you continue. They're as indispensable as your language tutor!
Suggestion: It would be nice if /when you visit other locations you have the name in text on the screen. We can follow up on maps to see where these places are. Also when using "Sicilian" words have that appear in text on the screen. Especially for those of us that would like to learn Sicilian, that would be very helpful. I do speak "Northern" Italian, which I find can even be "somewhat" different from from the very Southern Italian. The vocabulary usage all over Italia is interesting, and then there's Sicilian. Love your videos & the progress you're making. I follow another (RUclips) gentleman with his project in the Marche, plus an Italian couple with young children in Sicilia. The wife is from the far North (Merano) and the husband is from the Northwestern part of Italia.
the first thing to learn well is the pronunciation of the Italian alphabet! then also find a native speaker on the internet who can give you lessons so you don't make mistakes... then I advise you to make an effort to speak Italian among yourselves too! 😊 Happy New Year to everyone from Rimini!
All the best for 2025 and thank you for your channel 🎉
Truth be told - I’d known nothing about Sicily and life there until I watched your videos. You’ve expanded my exposure to this gigantic, diverse and fascinating world we share! Thank you for this public service! Happy New Year!
Awesome year 🎉in Sicily , great year end video !! Happy New Year 🎉🥂
My favorite of your favorites is the liberation of the olive trees. Good work, happy beautiful trees! Best wishes for '25.
I am really enjoying watching you from Mt Brydges Ontario Canada. You are such positive energetic warm people. I appreciate your efforts in bringing your experiences to us. It allows me to live that life vicariously through you! Keep up the great work!
Just wonderful! Buon anno.❤️🇮🇹❤️🥂
Enjoy seeing you two and what you get up to there in Sicily. The scenery and the culture is just stunning. And, who doesn't love Massimo? Have a great year.
Happy new year from Germany to both of you in Sicily. We're always happy about new episodes of your adventures.
Looking forward to seeing more of your amazing adventures in 2025 , Tks for sharing ….👍👍👍👍

Siete una coppia meravigliosa
Buon anno nuovo sperando sempre sia più bello sereno e possibilmente con meno stronzi di quelli che avete incontrato quest’anno, mi riferisco a chi vi ha tagliato le gomme dell’auto al vigile che vi ha fatto la multa ai ragazzi dell’ikea che non vi hanno aiutato a caricare i mobili e al frantoio che vi stava fregando l’olio.
Fortunatamente ci sono tante persone di cuore che meritano tanto..una fra tutte Massimo.
Bravo!!😅
Thank you! I have enjoyed and watched from the start of your vlog! You have given a fantastic view of Sicilian culture from my couch with Beths giggles and Brian your glint from your eyes. 🇨🇦❤️❤️
I was waiting for you two all day,!
So happy to see you. Merry Christmas and a Happy and blessed New Year!
Hi Brian & Beth, Happy holidays & a Very Happy New Year 2025 to you both. 🎉🥂.
Thank you so much for allowing my husband & I a glimps into your new life & adventure. We are living vicariously through you both until we get to visit the island in Sept-Oct next year to see if this would be a good fit for us to add to our list.
Can I ask you what is the new word you are using on your opening sequence instead of andiamo?

Happy new year and thanks for sharing your amazing adventures. And the olive trees are stunning!
