had to reupload this video 💚 had major issues with thumbnail issue and for the first time in my 8 years on this platform, the issue couldn’t be solved lol. thanks for coming back and rewatching, girls 💚
we love sissel in her booktube era
I get it now Cari 🙊💚
This has happened a few times: some days I feel extremely low and like nothing matters, like I don't really wanna know what life will bring to me. But every time I watch your videos I feel so different. You make me wanna explore places and people, share with my family, fall in love and explore life. The way you show life in your videos makes it seem like it's worth living. Thank you so much Sissel
I don’t know what to say… I feel sad that you sometimes wake up and feel that way love, and I hope one day this will change and you’ll wake up with excitement. I’m so honored that my videos have that effect on you, truly. Sending you all the love 💚💚💚
I love how you used the phrase “low dopamine morning”. It’s so important to learn how to be satisfied with low dopamine moments (especially in the world today!). That is one of the things I really love about your videos as well. You are so level headed and that really draws me into your story. It’s just peaceful 😌
hach, sissel. your editing is so pleasing to watch - the choice of music, scenery, typography - your libra ascendant aesthetic and virgo work ethic is really shining through haha. love it xx
Thank you so much!! 💚
I was just thinking how young your grandmother looks, can't believe she's almost 80! I'm glad you knowhow lucky you are that she is in such good health and it's great that you got to go in holiday with her 💜
100%, I’m counting my blessings every day with her 💚 thank you !
Such a beautiful vlog. I love that you had the chance to holiday with your grandma. So special. Also, I totally know what you mean about finding that stress less, grateful, spot of pure joy, and remembering that’s what life is meant to be. It’s crazy that we don’t live like that more. And also, that book series totally had me ♥️ amazing author! Thank you for making me smile x
Your comment makes ME smile, thank you love 💚
Your Grandmother looks amazing. What a beautiful vlog. Thank you so much for sharing your experience.
She is 🥰 thank you love 💚
I loved the slow, cozy vibe of this vlog 🤍 I needed that reminder about slowing down in the mornings and not looking at my phone (which I do too often). Let’s keep each other accountable on this! Also your reactions to the book were amazing! I totally get you since I’ve been a fantasy girlie most of my life, although I haven’t read the ACOTAR yet (definitely adding it to my TBR). Hope you still feel that peace after coming back to Korea! 🫶🏻
We’ve got this! 🙊 and thanks for saying that, so far so good! Having a book really helps for sure 💚
seeing you unwind and have a moment of relaxation made me sit down and do the same!!! i’ve been super high strung and stressed with college lately, a bit grumpy today, but i sat down and started doing nail care and clipping my nails. healing alongside with you!!!! loved this video!!! you’re inspiring me to start a low dopamine routine starting tomorrow. I did the same as you, like starting something but not holding onto it just because of getting sucked up in life and the comfort of home. let’s get this girly!
Awww healing along side each other sounds so nice, thank you for sharing this! 💚
Sissel You’re such a healing person your channel is always calming me but what I really love about you is your work ethic I really wished you could make a video about it 💚 I know you worked really hard from the start and tell us what inspires you
I'm so glad you enjoyed your little vacation in Sicily and found the perfect weather too, like its crazy that the temperature isn't going down (and a bit concerning, but a win is a win). Just as I was going to be full autumn vibes suddenly I miss summer again, not fair :( ❤
Yeah and I heard it was insanely warm this summer there as well, it’s super concerning 🥺💚
I enjoy seeing your happiness! Thank you for sharing your time with your family and all of the wonderful food and experiences you are having! It's so healthy you can enjoy this time separate from Jake (missing him of course but knowing it is all positive for your relationship!) That sandwich!!! Need that in my life as soon as I get over Covid!
Thank you love, and happy healing! 💚
I had tears in my eyes at the end of this video... it is so healing to watch you healing. You are such an inspiration and so is your grandma. Thank you for all your effort and realness, Sissel ❤
💚😭💚😭
Thank you for this lovely vlog of your time in Sicily with your family. I am so pleased you had this opportunity to go and make memories with them and also enjoy this peaceful and healing time too. 😊💕
Thank you so much 💚
You really threw me into a hole with the book...... I finished the second book after three days of starting the first one and I need to take a break now because I need to focus on university but I can't stop think about everything 😭 Please keep us updated on your progress! And so wonderful seeing you having a great time; even though you're always glowing you're glowing differently here ❤
I completely relate to that hahah, I’ve almost finished the second one too within a week 🫶🏼 soooo good 💚
I loved the calm vibe of this vlog!! So healing!❤️🩹

I’m so glad 💚

10:45 Girl! What are you apologizing for? That sandwich looks awesome, and you look happy eating it. happiness is attractiveness.

@@sisselab 🥺💗
Sissel jams and all types of charcuterie it’s the best in Italy and Spain so don’t doubt when you eat it!!
noooo! I left my first comment on your previous video ahah but yay for figuring out the thumbnail issue
But loved your video, every shot was amazingly dreamy and peaceful. Glad you got to spend time with your dear ones and yourself! I'm also trying this slow/calm life and I can see the change mentally and physically. You sold me that book, I am so curious now can't wait to buy it hehe
AND I love your videos I've been watching for a couple of months, I love how you film and can truly see your view on life and I adore your way of speaking and expressing yourself sissel! can't wait for next wednedays to come 💗

Sissel ❤❤❤❤ why do you feel like such a good friend while we never met! Great you had some great quality time with your family. Sooo important!! All the great foodies as well, makes me want to travel to Italy too. 🇮🇹
Awww I’m smiling so big, thank you 💚
i had to laugh so hard, when I saw this title. I literally just came back from a week at the Amalfi Coast to read ACOTAR there :D Got soooo hooked, that I couldn't do anything else and read the 5 books in 10 days.
Omg that’s so funny HAHA how is that even possible girl ! But I completely relate tho 🤣💚
Came back to rewatch after seeing your IG post! You shared the font you use with my in the first upload so I wanted to comment again to say thank you! 💚
Thank YOU, I really appreciate it 💚
Brava sissie far un viaggio rilassante fa bene bravaaaa
came here to watch it again while i'm drinking my coffee ☕📚💚
You’re so sweet, thank you 💚💚
This was a beautiful vlog. Wish there was more but it's okay. ❤❤❤❤
Awww💚
My god, u make me wanna read these books again!! XD love it that u love them!
Do it do it do it do it hahaha 💚
So glad you went on this trip! Perfect for distressing and spending quality time with your family.
Edit: Destressing not distressing 😅
absolutely 💚
Ugh lemme go but a plane ticket, that toner and that book lol
🙊💚
I am a big acotar girlie, it is definitely my favourite book series so far 😭
completely get why 🙊💚
firstly omg this was so beautifully filmed! I hope to visit italy one day. Never been. Secondly, once you enjoy Acotar, life will not be the same again (in a good way) Apparently the next series to read by sarah j mass is throne of glass so dont panic when u finish the series
Omg the butterfly that flew by you 😍 you're a disney princess Sissel! What a magical trip wow ✨️
It was such a cute moment 🥹💚
I agree with you! I am a Mexican married to a German and now I am visiting my family in Mexico and everyone asks me where your husband is, don't you miss him? And I’m like of course I miss him but I also enjoy to spend time with my fam like back in the day when I was living here. Love your vibe 💚
Yesss exactly! Ah I would looove to go to Mexico too 💚
sissel and her sandwich is a viiibe.
I miss it 😭💚
Acotarrrrrr i finished that series so fast. I think I read it last year but you talking about it makes me want to reread it again 😂 although not much time has passed since then 😅
I’m soooo in love with this universe ! 💚
Loooved this video so much! Thanks for sharing these beautiful peaceful moments with us
Thank you so much!! They’re from Gentle Monster 💚
Thank you 🧡 @@sisselab
reading Crescent City Vol 2 now, already finished all the other books by Sarah J Maas
and I am like u - crying at certain passages 😂 feeling overwhelmed and I just can‘t put it in words
although I always loved reading, there was a time I only read classics. being back to fantasy at the moment really puts me in a good mood as well.
have fun reading the rest 💚
Definitely plan on reading all her books as well! I hope you enjoy it so far as well 💚😍
@@sisselab yes love it! can‘t wait for u to read them all as well
My grandparents are from Ragusa. Would love to visit someday. What made your family choose Scicli? It looks like a nice area.
I think I had a book hangover after reading the acotar series.. didn't know what to do with my life for a good few weeks 😀😀
I’m already having a pre-hangover and I’m only almost done with the second 😭💚
Youre in for an emtional ACTOR rollercoaster
Hi Sissel, love to see you're enjoying Sicily! Those creepy guys are actually "pupi siciliani", traditional puppets/marionettes used for a very special Sicilian-style opera :D I don't have any explanation for the American guy tho ahah Take care and enjoy Italy
I believe he is an American president
That’s so cool! 💚 thanks for explaining !
the dolls are a sisilian cultural heritage stuff :)
Sissel I am a huge fan..wish i could be your friend 🤩
absolutely relaxing ❤
💚💚💚
💚💚💚
💚💚💚💚
May I just compliment your style and outfits, I mean I always liked how you dress and carry yourself, but this vid validated my liking of your style❤❤❤
Actually those are traditional Sicilian puppets. A very meaningful symbol of Sicily and tre South Italy in the 19th century….and grappa is 100% Italian as to be called “grappa” it must be produced in Italy♥️☺️
SWORDFISH RAVIOLI omg sounds soo intresting
It was sooooo good 💚
I did try out KAINE skincare for a while but, I think it's because of my skin type, it didn't really work for me. I have very oily skin and it just wasn't able to control the oil production suitably. I do love the facewash though and still use it.
😍
Perfect way to end the day 💚💚💚 l love your videos so much Sissel.
Awww I’m blushing 💚💚
❤
😍😍😍
Re-watching! Gotchu, girl!!! 🫶🏻
You’re the best, seriously 💚 so much stress ran through me helplessly trying to fix that issue
Relaxing!!!❤
💚🥹🫶🏼
Hello! Can you share the link for the place you’re staying or just the name? Thank you!💗
Where is your white and blue pyjama pants from ? Seems so comfy
They’re from Envii💚
@@sisselab thank you !! 💚
I’m happily back and rewatching your video. Sorry it’s been stressful dealing with the thumbnail issues. Thanks for adding sunshine to my day!
Thank you soooo much, I really truly appreciate it ! It surprised me how much it affected me actually - might seem ridiculous to some people but I really wanted to make something amazing for you guys and for Kaine and I disappointed myself a lot 💚🥺
Sissel, I don’t think it’s ridiculous at all. You worked hard on it and put your heart into it so when things don’t go as planned it’s definitely stressful. We love you and are more than happy to come back and rewatch. I often rewatch you videos anyway. I hope you’re feeling better now that the video and thumbnail are working. Huge hug and lots of love ❤
@@michelelovesbooksyou’re so kind, thank you for saying this. It really makes me feel a lot better 💚
this video is just as relaxing as the views in Sicily 🤍
That makes me so happy 💚💚
😍😍😍😍😍😍
The “nightmare inducing puppets” 😂 are Pupi Siciliani. Which is a marionette theatrical representation of Frankish romantic poems traditionally performed in Sicily. They tell the episodes derived from epic-chivalric literature of medieval origin. It’s a very old tradition
That’s so cool 💚🙊
Hi Sissel! Great video, as always :) And p.s. - the guy at the start of your video is Corto Maltese! A very famous character in literature and also the main character in a very popular comics series.
Either way, I know this is a bit random, but I would like to visit Korea for the first time in December, and I only have about 10 days that I can take off work. Do you think this is a decent amount of time to stay in Seoul and maybe Busan? Would you have any recommendations? :) I will be travelling alone so will be looking for fun things to do and places where I can meet people. It would be great if you could also make a video out of it!
and thank you so much!!
Oh that’s I interesting !! 🙊
And yes 10 days is plenty! I would say do a week in Seoul and a couple of days in Busan. I am planning on doing a little video on my suggestions on a travel itinerary 💚
@@sisselab oh that's awesome! thank you so much, looking forward to it (and to my trip hehe)! ☺
pizza is eaten with your hands!!!
Ahah our languages must be similar. I’m dutch and when I was a kid I used to say gnocchi the same way ahahah
Hahahah 💚🤣
the rainbow on your cheek 💚🌈 2:31
🥹💚
Love the video ❤ just to let you know those creepy puppets are traditional sicilian puppets, the so called "Opera dei pupi". It is a traditional form of Sicilian puppet theater that dates back to the 19th century. This form of puppetry is performed with intricately crafted marionettes, or "pupi" in Italian, and it combines elements of theater, storytelling, and music. So yeah makes sense the owner of the villa put them there
Oh wow!! That’s so cool!! I wonder if there’s a history behind those bleeding red lips? It gave me goosebumps every time I walked by it 🙊💚
Loved the Part at 17:52. I live the same way but so many people can't understand that "me- Time abord " is also a importent thing ;D
It really is 💚💚
Omg. You're gonna love ACOTAR. And you gonna love the next book. More spicy scenes. Iykyk. If you don't mind, after you read ACOTAR, go check out Throne of Glass series and Crescent City series. Cause Sarah J Mass is a Fantasy Romance queen. And great advices you got there. Sometimes you should have a "me time" to regenerate yourself. I do that all the time. Enjoy your holiday dear.
TOG is definitely on my next-to-read list when I’m done with this series 😍💚
I love you and your husband's videos but I'm so shocked you are feeling nightmares from marionettes 😅 I absolutely love them.
Something about dolls hahah 💚🙊 but someone told me their history and I really enjoyed that! Although they still look creepy to me a bit haha 💚
@@sisselab Great to know you are always open to learning and helping others 😊
creepy puppets how scary 🫣
❤
