America is GREAT, but Sicily is BETTER! #36

Hello from the Pierces in ME- Beth you look so Sézane in this episode. We love your channel and cheering you on. We too ponder being away from our kids and are trying to convince them to come. Until then we split our time. Have a lovely week! - Jeff & Tianne

RIGHT; do a good job!

And Chianti?

So excited to watch!!!

The Bee’s Are Back!

Happy Sunday! ☕️

You have inspired us so much in your journey stories that we have just bought a move ready home in mussomelli. We will have handover perhaps around april, the owners are very flexible and we will arrange for my daughter and family to move into our home in australia while we are away, ( to look after my elderly pet chickens). I know, i know, working around my pet chookies, but they are adorable and probably in their the last year.
Anyway we are in catania most of this week. If you are coming to catania again this week please let us know, we would love to catch up especially if you need to go shopping for for stuff haha
Cheers sonya and sal

Welcome home! The video clips of your family were fun to watch. I couldn’t help but notice you two are bundled up in your winter sweaters. It will be interesting to hear what the temps do in your area this winter.🥶

Awesome great to see back on Utube...your place is coming along beautifully!

So pleased you two are back! We have missed you. X

So happy to have you both back again! I totally agree that 'merica is too expensive after living in Sicily. Something truly special about this place for sure. Buy your at home wine in 5 litre jugs, just €8.50 for Nero di Avola, of course, you don't have that great atmosphere of the restaurants and the quant villages of Sicily if you don't leave the farm once in a while. Cheers and see you soon. 🍷

I love how you two laugh so much and just have fun when you talk. It is so important and healthy and infectious to watch!

Welcome back. Economy in UK is as bad. £4.50 for a coffee. World is going mad.

Think about doing a gravel garden as part of your landscaping.

Good to see you back in Sicily . A

Welcome back! For some reason, I thought that you would be away until the new year!! House is looking good!

Best to you two on your hardworking journey! You are an inspiration as my husband and I are considering a move to Italia. Thanks for sharing!

Welcome back to Europe, busy bees! Well done for having your floor installed immediately. Now that that's taken care of, I hope you'll experience so much more joy and contentment in your Sicilian country home, surrounded by lush lemon and walnut trees and an abundant olive grove... You deserve it!

Glad you got to spend time with family. That's the best. We had the same price shock when we recently returned to the US. 4 meals at my fav chicken fast food was $70.I must have asked the cashier to repeat the price three times cause I couldn't believe it,

Nice to have you back! Your place is looking really good and must feel great having the floor done (so well)! Love your upbeat personalities!

Welcome back dear to our little village. Now when you leave you also miss this land, Sicily, as happens to every Sicilian who leaves this paradise. This means that the transformation is complete, you are 100% Sicilian!!!

My life is so sad. I HATE the US. I want to leave and move back to Italy so bad but with aging parents and other family issues I am trapped here. Some days I think I’d rather be gone from the planet than be here. It’s sad because I love my family but I am starting to really resent them because I am in this situation because of them. It’s heartbreaking. The hate and racism and bigotry here is off the chain. And all in Christ’s name. Disgusting.

Welcome back!! ❤

A 'tapestry lawn' would be great. All low growing stuff that looks more interesting than a lawn and doesn't need mowing but can still walk on it. It's quite a knack getting the right mix of plants but it's great if you can get it right.

Love the floor!

You two inspire me, I am 2nd generation Sicilian American and plan to retire in Sicily. YOU CAN HAVE USA 😂

We missed you! Things have been so hectic that I thought I would’ve missed at least a couple of videos. Glad you had a good time in the states. Not surprised at your shock of the prices here now. I am looking forward to one day experiencing a lower cost of living and healthier, fresh food! The house is looking good!

Hi guys, love watching your episodes with my wife. We are planning to do the same thing in the south of Greece. Just curious because I love your stove, how did you get a gas range? Is it natural gas or is it attached to a propane tank or butane? Keep posting we love all your new videos.❤

You were missed' but so glad you had a great time with family. Thanks for sharing your journey with us.

Love your videos...if you get a chance go see the aquarium in Genoa, Italy...it's awesome.❤️🇮🇹

Glad you had a great time with your family. Welcome home!

Great, to see you guys. I'm glad you had a fun time with your family. Have a good week 😊

Wow your place is looking amazing, great job on everything! Glad you got to see all your kids and the Granddaughter, how fun !

Things are looking good! It was wonderful that you had the whole family together. Honestly, that’s what’s keeping me here. But things around the farm are really looking great.

So nice to hear that your trip went well and you were able to spend time with your family. I thinking you could plant clover or something like that. It is supposed to be great for the soil and very low maintenance. Anyway, you both are beautiful and I really enjoy your videos and hearing about your adventure in Sicily.

Your videos are wonderful! I just bought a home in Abruzzo and can't wait to get started on my own renovations. I appreciate seeing how the channels are done in the floor and walls for the electric. It helps me mentally prepare for what's next at my place. Thanks for sharing your joyous adventures and your happy natures. You hit the nail on the head with the economy in the US. I've been here in Sulmona Italy for 3 weeks. Cooked all my meals in my apartment, and it was so inexpensive. So I fly home tomorrow. Back to the fantastic south....
I'm glad to see my family, but I really enjoyed this time to myself. It's been very healing. I missed you while you were away. I'm glad you're back safe and sound. ❤🎉❤
