One year later, here is a much requested part two of my most watched video "what i eat in a week at my Nonna Rosa's house" in Calabria, Italy 🥰 I hope you enjoy!
[about me]
Hi my name is Rosie, I'm 26 and my life is a bit confusing so i'm writing this lol.
To make it easy:
- I was born in Northern Italy, in the region of Veneto
- My whole family still lives there (mom, dad and my little sister Marty)
- I moved to Toronto, Canada, at 19 all alone to ✨find myself✨ (spoiler: it didn't work, i got more lost if anything).
So, I live half my life in Italy and half my life in Canada.
Also, my mom is from Moldova (country in Eastern Europe) and my dad is from Calabria (region in Southern Italy) and both my grandmas still live there. So you’ll occasionally see me going there as well.
I hope this clears things up a bit.. or maybe makes them more confusing lol.
I don’t know, i tried 😄

So glad you're enjoying the video 🥰
To anyone asking about the restaurant in Sicily, it's called "Ristorante Il Padrino" and it's in the town of Forza d'Agrò;
Also I really wanted to make a recipe book with nonna this year but we didn't have enough time.. two weeks went by so fast and because nonna cooks without measuring anything, we would have had to remake all the recipes and measure all the ingredients/cooking times. Hopefully next year 🤞🏻I tried to include all the steps of each recipe so hopefully you'll still be able to recreate them 😊💕
That’s great idea. Take a time. Warm hugs for Nonna❤️
I tuoi video mi rilassano tanto sei bravissima 😍
That is so thoughtful Rosie. Your Nonna reminds me so much of mine. Thank you for sharing a glimpse of your life with us!
That's so lovely!!
Oh I would LOVE that. Also, to save your Nonna grief lol I'm sure you can guesstimate and not measure everything super precisely because well, it's kind of half the fun to cook when it's not so precise really! Rosie, this was SUCH a joy and such a comfort and delight-- thank you endlessly for taking us along, really your video's are my favorite and I learned so much about food ! You and your family are so lovely. :))) It makes me re-think what priorities I have, and definitely family and good food surely is one of the most special things we can have. x
most people want rich and modern lives, but this is the life i want. being home cozy with people i love, eating homecooked food, living in the forest... this video just gives me warmth
believe me this is what being rich looks like to other people. just warmth and comfort
@@scorpioj3 people = me
I think to average ppl in America this IS luxury, i was kinda shook to see the amount of food theyre able to buy in a day. I feel like that would easily be $120-150+ (per day) in the US, but ik in the european countryside food is actually affordable and much cheaper.
Yeah not fake things luxury life offers.
Fake body, fake relations, fake faith etc.
Trust me this have a meaning this is orthodox wat of living.
@@jyon7168 And probably also tastes better.
I’m American and never lived this kind of life. No close family, no home cooking, no fresh fruits and vegetables, no comfortable house. My eyes tear up watching this. It seems so natural and right. I’m happy people live like this. I think it’s how people are meant to live.
You can create this life for yourself I’m sure ❤
Move to Italy!
I'm from Albania 😂that's my daily life lol😂
❤
@@rajashripalitI’m creating this life with my husband and possibly a little one on the way 😭🥹❤️
Unbelievable that there are places in the world like this that treat everyday like this. Food is a celebration. Everything is fresh from the market. Time is less important and eating nourishing and full meals throughout the day is normal. And coming together to sit around the table each and every time…unbelievably important. 3rd time watching this because it just gives me so much inspiration as an American who is dying to travel to Italy someday and who also hopes to be able to give my future children more of this type of experience surrounding food, family and connection.
To be fair she is on vacation at her grandma's house... I'm American too and we do all this too when visiting relatives for a while. Americans have bbqs and cook together and do all this stuff, minus of course the fresh market with individual vendors and awesome produce etc. Not saying Italy isn't special but the comments here be giving all these Tony Bourdain speeches about how unbelievable a normal family vacation is. The thing is there are so many broken families in the US and hell Northwestern Europe too, that leave many people unfortunately completely on their own or just with one parent. Americans belittle those who live with family, or boast about being 'independent' and moving three states away, well this is the consequence of all that alienating culture- we watch videos of southern Europeans and wish we were them!
On the other hand, they can do it because most of the people in this region are either unemployed or retired. If you go just a few hundred km up north where Italians have jobs you wont see as much of it.
If you want it it will be.i wanted a life like this i had a mama who loved me n my children beyond all. But circumstances just weren't meant to be so hang on to your dream.
We don’t care. Americans oversharing as always
Wonderful video. Thank you
You dont know how lucky you are to have a grandma like her! God bless her! Cherish her and respect her! 🤗😘

I love how realistic your family is. I feel so related because nothing is extravagant or staged just in the sake of making a vlog. It's like your family life is 'reachable' for most of us.
czcams.com/video/pM1Y6d-WOVk/video.html vlog :)
I feel the same way! I’m Inuit from
northern Canada and this still felt
really familiar and relatable! The food may be different, but the down-to-earth way it is prepared and served makes me feel connected. It all looks absolutely delicious!
I felt the same way and which is what made me subscribe. I am an Indian and I could honestly still relate so much!
Perfect comment ^^
First time viewer here. I'm Filipina but can see their day to day life similarly here in PH. Going to the market, eating together, family chitchats with a half naked uncle (😂) taking naps, etc. Reminds me of our fiesta celebrations.
Your grandmother is a hard worker. I know it is usual for her, her culture, her generation, etc. but I hope u guys acknowledge her hard work and cooking. She's a beast in the kitchen!
Nonna’s are the bosses in the family, the glue, the foundation of the family.
You you don’t eat what nonna cook, is like stabbing her.
Italian grandma’s constantly question is “did you ever eat?”.
Nonna’s love and are loved.
@@winstonchurchill571 and the Greek's, too! ♥
I want to come and stay with your Nonna....amazing food....what a lady xxx
She is a Goddess! A Queen! So strong and full of energy! Take good care of her! Cherish every minute you spend with her!!!! ❤🙂🌷🥐🍵💋🍩🥐⚘
I grove up in Turkey and this video literally took me back to my childhood.Big family,lots of homemade meals,daily family trips...I am really missing old days.
Greetings from an Italian living in Istanbul, I perfectly understand what you are talking about and how you feel...
As a Mexican American, this reminds me of my my family almost every weekend. We all meet up at our dad’s house. Our kids swim and we eat good. I’m very grateful.
People actually playing together outside, eating together and having real conversations without being glued to their phone... That was refreshing to see!
People always say this...while being on their phones/laptops watching countless videos of nannas cooking :D
This whole thing was filmed with a phone
@@fijigirltwa no shit
@@aritsiadelrey yeah so use your brain lol
@@jaroslavcech225 right 😂 it’s very annoying
It’s nice to see that some parts of the world haven’t forgotten how to live life and it’s not all about money
Money makes your life better.
Living such a life without money would not be possible.
To live a cozy simple quite life u still need a good amount of money tbh
You do realise they would need to have quite some money to afford such a life
You are right, but would you like to live your life like nonna?
I’m from Taiwan and accidentally came across your video. I can’t tell you enough how much I love this!!!! It really brings me back to when my grandmama was still alive and when we would visit, she’d always hosted us with a table full of delicious dishes that bring the whole fam together… in Chinese there’s a saying ‘有種餓叫阿嬤覺得你餓’. It basically describes that food is grandmas’ love language and they love feeding you with food. I think your video is a perfect example of that 🤌🏼✨
the world is small my friend
So beautifully said! 🌷
i literally live in Greece and throughout the whole video i was like OH THEY HAVE THAT TOO or THEY DO THAT LIKE WE DO and then i realized when it comes to Mediterranean, most things are the same lol. Living in Athens, where you can't enjoy a village-like summer unless you have a way/reason to go to a village (or vacation), watching this video surely gave me warm summer vibes as if i'm missing a place I've never lived in.
I'm not Italian at all but this video somehow brought back childhood memories of growing up in China, the fruit after every meal, buying ingredients from guys in trucks, meals with simple ingredients, and eating with a big family with everyone chatting and laughing...it's funny how similar we all are despite being geographically so far apart!
This is very cool!!
I am from Puerto Rico and felt the same. The way they cut with the knife backwards reminded of my aunt and made me nostalgic😢 It’s amazing how much I relate to so many other cultures that are not American
Same! I'm from Taiwan. My family didn't get along well, We had grow apart😢But I still miss the good old family days.
And this is why I (southern italian) loved a show on Netflix about chinese cuisine from several regions
I was thinking about that as well, how similar we all are... we may not use the same ingredients and recipes, yet there are so many similarities that make us alike
As an English person this genuinely makes me grieve for a life i've never had! It won't be the same for all, but I know for most British people our food and family culture has been lost somewhere down the line. The way your grandmother shows her love through her hard work and cooking makes me genuinely emotional. It's so warm, I can't explain it. I know no life is perfect and all come with their difficulties but something in the essence of this lifestyle and communion is what i feel is seriously missing in our culture. I love your videos and hope that you can carry some of this tradition with you through your life!
What happened to the UK?
Maybe It is because of mass amount of immigrants from asian countries?? 😥
Couldn’t have put it better myself (I’m from uk 🇬🇧 & your totally right)
It’s lovely to watch tho (& dream lol 😂)
🎶Lizzie's in a box🎶
Exactly, i feel the same applies to finland. Lot of great things here but.. just not this.. ❤ love italy, was just recently in rome and naples. Want to go back to rome asap. 😢 But i have to say london was amazing too, among my favorite places in europe - brits have a lot to be proud about
It’s incredibly how Italian traditions are so similar than spanish ones. Your video has been like watching one summer week when my grandma lived. I appreciate so much your content. Thank you for sharing this special moments❤
The togetherness, visits to markets and love for cooking deliciousness makes me think of life here in the Caribbean. So wholesome!
Also reminded me of morocco..one side is native to their..the markets,big meals,get together.. aww ❤️..they do b feeding you too much at times but they're so kind and warm
As an Italian born and living in the South of Italy (Puglia), I can tell how much truth there's in this video. This is really how summer is like here, expecially when relatives from the North or from abroad come to stay for vacation.
I also appreciate that you didn't make it a judgemental or stereotypical video, like most CZcamsrs do.
Totally loved it!
I'm from Canada, what do you mean if it was depicted as judgmental or stereotypical?
Genuinely curious
Inffati , senza aggiungere neanche una parola , la meraviglia del sud italia abracci from durazzo
@@kevinchhom9739 hi kevin like some other youtubers from hamburger nations that give their ignorance judging traditional mediterranian food comparin with their shity kitchens , us like mediterranians never adapt other peoples foods , we can be in china and still eating our food
That’s judgemental haha 😂 ! The video was silent, they left all the judgements to commentors
@@durazzodurazzo9235 seems a bit judgemental of China's & "hamburger nations" food tbh, I mean...😏
I have family in Italy, and this video perfectly captures vacationing with Italians. It's constant eating, chilling out, napping, espresso, shopping (for food), more eating, some kind of celebration of a local saint/town festival, beach fun, and family time. You even got visiting the family graves in there. Filled out the Italian family vacation bingo card.
Omg yesss😭
im not Italian but its basically my life when I back to Taiwan. My husband is so jealous that I get to go home when he stuck in the States for job training lol
When do they go to work? Sounds lovely but what about earning an income? Is it just for vacations or year round?…just trying to gauge the stereotypes heard around the world no harm meant lol
@@krislv9219 They definitely work! But Italians also get more holidays than the average North American. I believe the minimum is 4 weeks per year, plus all the national calendar days. The minimum is about 32 days a year in total. Plus you get a city/town/saint day off, something like 15 days off for your wedding, and a bunch of other random days/time off depending on your employment contract. And, if you've been working at a job for a while, you'll probably have many days off to burn! When visiting my family, they always seemed to have a lot of time off in the bank to spend with us. Wonderful system lol.
@@Devydon thank you 😊
just had a little breakdown because my whole family is from Calabria, my parents were born there too: both families moved to the north when they were very little and started a new life here. They eventually met in their twenties and found out they both came from two different little towns in Cosenza. Thankfully I managed to grow up surrounded by calabrese culture, food, dialect and traditions.
Your nonna seems so precious and everything she does and says reminds me so much of my nonna… unfortunately I lost her a month ago after five years of dementia. She was my best friend and my favorite person to ever exist, she sacrificed everything for her children and grandchildren (i’m the youngest of 8 girls, she used to call us her “8 stars”) and she taught me what being rich actually means.
Grazie per questo vlog tenerissimo mi ha fatta sentire a casa. ❤
OMG. What a great Nona you have! She does the work of three ppl. Give her a hug for us.
i’m greek and this video feels like home 💗 we all lived the same life 😭 i love the mediterranean way of life and how food and family are the centre of everything
i am Algerian and this video also feels like home! it’s crazy how much mediterranean countries have in common❤
I'm from the south of Spain I feel this could be my family. My granny used to live in a similar town, wear similar clothes and even cook similar dishes!
I’m from Armenia and this reminds me my childhood. Even nonna looks like my grandma, and the atmosphere in big family is just like the same
Please adopt me lol
i was about to comment the same thing!! as someone who's from the western part of greece this feels like i'm back home 🥲
it's like they're celebrating something everyday it's so exciting
True.. Very True
It's a celebration of food.
We celebrate life, duh 😂♥️
Because it is summer time. In other seasons, everyone is much more busy so big family gatherings happens just once a week.
@@Letyparatore It's beautiful
I think we have similar culture in Türkiye too,bc a lot of things are really relatable.Love from 🇹🇷
The summers in Italy are top tier, even if you visit just for a few hours.
Something about the energy is just 😍
Girl, if you haven't already, you need to document these recipes. Don't let these treasures die out.
I’m pretty sure that’s what this video is 🤔
@Reynaldo Lara, I meant document as in book form.
I'd love a book of these recipes, yum.
@@saltwatertaffy7020 Her grandmother surely has them all written down
@@222MovieMan no, she said she has to work on creating a book next time she visits though! Her Grandmother does not measure the ingredients, she adds them as needed
I'm mexican & I've never ever felt so Italian in my life lol... the coal fire...the charring of the peppers... there's so many similarities! Also this video makes me miss my grandmas! To anyone reading this If you have your gma nearby give her a hug 💗
Yes! Completely agree! I'm native to New York and grew up in an Italian household, older generations from Italy. I moved to San Jose California and lived there for 10 years. So much is similar! Some of my most cherished memories in California are cooking with the older latinas. I speak Italian, and now I speak Spanish as well. I am a chef and one of my favorite things to make is Carnitas. And it's awesome to take the carnita meat, add some to tomato sauce, add beans and ditalini... It's a Mexican Italian fusion pasta fagioli. This is TMI but I love seeing Mexican Americans see the similarity between the two cultures!
Girl im Black and feel like i can speak Italian now. Lol so warming and welcoming i just love watching a real family.
Yo también soy mexicana y nunca taaan identificada con este video
@@marianpetterson será que fuimos Italianas en otra vida?! 😅
@@cfaz6763 that pasta recipe sounds AMAZING! 😋🔥
That was an exceptional video. You should win some kind of an award for that. That had me smiling, perfectly on verge of laughter and drooling the entire video. And such a beautiful culture and family. Thank you for sharing them with us.
I play this video on TV while doing the housework. It makes feel good. Life is beautiful.
I'm French and my grandma (who also lives in France) is Italian and also comes from Calabria. I just showed her your videos and she was so excited about seing your grandma's recipes! She knew all the ingredients and was happy to see your Italian life... Thank you for sharing this
Do italians eat 4 times a day??
@@clarivelgomez1092 Even more 😂, Breakfast, fruit at 10 A.M., lunch, merenda (snack at 4 P.M) and Dinner. This is what most of us do but not all italians eat like that.
That actually made smile imagining her getting excited
@@clarivelgomez1092 and we are skinny even if we eat every hour.
@@clarivelgomez1092 in brazil we also eat 4/5 times a day.
I find it so fascinating that your nonna doesn’t use a chopping board to cut, just her pairing knife and hands. That’s how you can tell she has been cooking for her entire lifetime !
Lmaoo everyone in my family does it and it's so dangerous
ikr😍😍😍
@@Red-zd4xm i do it as well thinking it will spare me time but yeah…it’s pretty dangerous lol
It's more common than you think. Many Africans do it, once you got the technique down, it's not dangerous.
My mum died last year.. She always had a knife in her hands and she chopped vegetables and potatoes in her hands like this, too. I was always telling her off, as she' 'spoke with her hands' and that knife became a lethal weapon, lol. I especially miss her today as this vlog reminds me of her.
I'm from UK and we always ate healthy, well balanced food growing up in the 70s. Meals were the important times. We were lucky to never have to do without, as others did in those days.
I've lived in several Countries, and am now back to Europe again,( near to the beautiful Mediterranean Sea) We eat a delicious Healthy Mediterranean based diet. Food is a mainstay of special occasions but its like that in our home daily. Always ,if you're lucky enough to live with family ,gather together to eat and spend quality time at the table! Ban TV dinners or teens eating in their rooms. It brings people together ( even though we are a family of just 4) and memories are made of simple things, such as cooking and eating together x) Good Health to everyone
Back in the days my life was like that in Tunisia 🥲 the life in south Italy and Tunisian is so alike ☺️ thank you for bringing me back to the most beautiful times of my life ♥️♥️
Marwa from Germany
I like your nonna’s little mysterious smile when she cooks ❤
Thank you for this wonderful video, it’s like it gives me will to live.
As I was watching, I was surprised that my mind went "Now THIS is how you're supposed to live life." In our modern world, we're so transfixed with making so much money and wanting to buy all the latest gadgets and fashion or eat at the fanciest places. There is nothing wrong with that. But then it takes away the true values of living. Living slowly, mindfully, and presently. You and your family are very very blessed, my friend. Thank you for sharing your Nonna's recipes with us! 💖
Yes!!!! She has such a blessed life and I truly don’t think she realizes that because she’s torn between Canada and Italy all because of a boy that already did her wrong once
This hits home! As an Indian, this reminds me how all of us- aunts, uncles and their kids would gather at Nonna's (we call them Nani). The picnics, visiting other relatives, the food, it's all so relatable.
Would never have known how similar Italian culture can be, to the Asian one.
That’s a beautiful statement. Indeed we are all human after all ❤❤
Yup actually most cultures
throughout history though cultures are very different in practices and beliefs they've all always understood one rule, family is everything.
I’m half Asian and half Italian and honestly it’s crazy how similar both sides of my family are, the main two things that are important is family and food 😂
I was about to comment the same.
Rosie is the only lady on earth that can make drinking red wine out of a Nutella cup look good :) great video as always !
That's the sweetest piece of anthropology ever. Grazie
It’s so wholesome and relatable that they needed a nap after all that delicious food at the picnic 🤣
Can she be my nonna ? 🥺
@@name_dropper8112 can she be mine too?
As I Spanish person living in Scotland, this video makes me feel very nostalgic. Unfortunately non of my two abuelas are healthy enough to be able to cook anymore…or don’t remember how to due to dementia. But watching you interact with your family brings me many memories of my childhood. Picking up blackberries, going to the local market, having ten people at the dinner table, going for a walk and ice cream at night on hot summer nights….eating my grandma’s tortilla…it feels great to remember. Sad, but warm at the same time. Mil gracias Rosie ❤️❤Sharing these moments with us really takes us back to better times filled with love.
❤️
Sad but warm.. you nailed it. It feels the same growing up in Western Turkey..

I can watch this everyday. I went to Italy for the first-time last year, Stayed in Lucca and travelled around Tuscany. Pisa, Panzano, Prato, Florence and went on a road trip to Genoa I love it so very much!
Rosie, when I saw the pastries wrapped like a present I almost burst into tears! It reminded me of when I bought cookies in Siena and they were so beautifully wrapped that I thought it was a present, a gift! I was confused! I later found out that's how they present their sales. Magical! I love the fact that Italians love and appreciate such details and beauty! Another reason I love Italia! 💋❤🍩🍵🥐🍵🌷⚘
I am an 19 year old Italian girl. I grew up in a small town in Lazio, just an hour or so from Rome. However I recently moved to Amsterdam, NL to attend university here. This video brought me back to my childhood and it felt so nostalgic. This is SPOT ON. It's exactly what Italy is like. Simple lives, rich with food, laughs, family time... So simple but so wholesome at the same time. Thanks a lot for these videos that you make. When I feel homesick I always find myself going back to them!
Do you know arce by chance?
@@hyzerfl1p nope sorry, who’s that?
It's a small town near itri and Rocca secca
My grandparents are from there. I live in worcester Massachusetts 🇺🇸 alot of the Italian immigrants are from arce and itri in the lazio region.
lets be friends pleasee, i want so hard to learn italian loll
It's the fact she kept her word a year later and now her family has been using ceramic plates is remarkable
I am sorry, im new here what was the promise?
@@zoran9912 in her previous ‘what I eat at my nonna’s house’ video she got some comments about the heavy use of plastic plates and cutlery etc. so she said she would buy ceramic plates for her grandma to use
@@ashd1641 Nice :D
I noticed this too! The main is that everyone should help with the washing up
@@milliehayes I agree, it's only the women that do it, I think it should be everybody
Beautiful...just beautiful...in sLOVEnia we live similar....what a blessing being born in countrys so full of love❤...thank you
I am Italian living in Finland. This wonderful video made me think I should do the same when I go back home for the summer. Congratulations, it’s lovely ❤
As someone who is not close with their family, I yearn for what you have with yours, and it brings tears to my eyes. For anyone losing touch, please cherish what you have.
I have distanced myself from my family for so long, ever since my mother passed away and my god has it been so painful - my throat tightens as I type this and it has been so long since I’ve cried.
If there is anyone going through something similar, please know that you’re not alone.
Be well. 💜
i don't know who you are but i love you and wish you a life of happiness :( xxx
Same since my mom passed as well. You are not alone in feeling this way. ❤
My mom is here but since my dad passed away my mom doesn’t cook or gather all of us anymore. Each one visits her separately it gets lonely specially we are all adults. And my life is pretty lonely i wish i lived a life like that simple and happy. My country is rich so everywhere it’s pretentious. U cant even go to the beach without people staring at u 😅.
Life goes on 💜
Since my father passed away. 💔
Clearly millions of us would love it if you just stayed at your Nonna's and kept making these relaxing, enjoyable videos - thank you so much Rosie! 🥰
I am Mexican and when I think about Italy life is exactly the way I see in this video, home made food or rural life. I live in the U.S. and when I hear people from here talking about their experience of traveling to Italy to the fancy places and always say it was not the best. I always say, go to the rural areas, go where the locas eat, that is the real Italy.
I wish my family had 10% of the bonding you guys had! Everything looks amazing :)
i'm moroccan and while watching this i've come to realize just how similar your routines, cuisine and street life is to that of morocco, even the way she cooks, the eating in the kitchen and sharing watermelons at the end of the meal... woah i'm actually so amazed. this is very nice and cozy and makes me appreciate my routine more, days like these are precious and you don't notice them until they're gone.
They're probably stealing your culture, i thought only Morrococks ate watermelon 😂 . Get outta of here.
I'm Bulgarian and find this way of family dinamic to be similar. The baked peppers, the marinata for the meat and the sharing watermelon and etc. Although spices and dishes are different still the feel makes me feel like I'm watching my home.
@@user-ow1qs7jo7f why tf all your comments are all so fcking rude? lack of attention or what? you literally said the same thing how it’s so much alike with yours💀
@@user-ow1qs7jo7f no, only Algeria does baby
I mean steal our culture.. faans you know 🙄
There's something about the Mediterranean lifestyle that is so unique... we have many things in common but different at the same time
North african? I’m Italian, so we’re actually close 😂 we’re all united by our special traditions, very similar ❤❤
Yah, oddly enough this kind of reminds me of what it is like in Algeria (still very different ofc but has the same feel and familiar lifestyle)
Ι felt my yiayia was cooking to me greek here💙🇬🇷 many similarities in food :)
Mediterranean food is the base of Latin America food as well and we're so lucky because it is the best cuisine ever created. Our dishes have taste.
@@ninalumiere145 what is the best food ever created?
Everyone always tells us how perfect life is in the U.S. but I think this is perfection.
Your Italian family reminds me my Armenian family! We're very similar not only in appearance, but also in our behavior! I wish our Italian friends all the best 🇦🇲♥️🇮🇹
im from brazil and i felt 100% familiarized with the culture from all of this video. its incredible how similar the cultures are. the nutella cup used a regular cup is the same energy lol
Simm
Totalmente
I'm from Poland and the Nutella cup felt too real lol, mine is the early 2000s edition with characters from Lord of the Rings. Maybe its Catholic things? Did the Holy Papa blessed the Nutella?
A parte na rua que eles dançam a tarantela podia ser um rolê na lapa ou na Bahia ❤
@@evithearcasigner it’s everywhere actually, I am African and we also have those Nutella cups, it’s called recycling 😂 we share so many things also. We tend to belive that nationality, color or language make us different somehow, in reality we are all the same people with few differences here and there. That’s all 🤷🏽♀️
As a Turkish this feels exactly like my grandma's house in the summer. Every detail in the video feels very familiar and nostalgic. It's gonna be one of my comfort zone videos.😻
bu video sayesinde Kuşadası'nın aslında İtalya'da olduğunu öğrendim jfhhb
nasi yani benim gibi bu videolari izleyen baska turklerde mi vaar 😮😄
@@bellearessuarez valla bende varım
Doğu tarafına pek benzemiyor sanki, daha çok Akdeniz ve Ege tarafı gibi ama baharatlı ve domates soslu yemekler bir de yemeği ekmekle yemeleri bana da kendi ninemleri hatırlattı
Ayni ege taraflari :))
I love this so much Rosie, thank you for posting, it's so wonderful to experience how homey and authentic Italy is at least through a screen.
Love your vlogs so so much….there simply is nothing better in life than being surrounded by family and the love and laughs and of course sharing good food . Wishing you, your lovely nonna and all your beautiful family all the best ❤❤❤❤
I feel so at home. My whole family and I are Indian and watching this reminds me so much of having a nice meal and spending time with them. Its nice knowing that no matter how different we are, all humans are the same at heart.
India is trash
Because Rosie shared her life with us, it feels like we can all be treated like family with Nonna. I rewatch her videos constantly to escape reality.
And part of the beauty of CZcams is bringing humanity together. I really believe this.
What an amazing experience. As an Indian guy living away from home and family in Spain, this video gave me goosebumps. I have done Almost everything you and your family did in this video with my family. Same picnic day in almost the same pine forest, with bedsheets from home 😂, and family dinners. Haven't seen my family for 5 years now because of work. My Nonna was also same, always feeding everyone and not willing to rest, sadly she passed away. I hope you get to enjoy many more happy years with your family. Good luck 😀
Watching your nonna cook - what a treat - everything seems so natural and easy. Loved the video and loved all the food even more!!
Liked before watching because I know I’ll love it
Same! And I went "yay!" as I liked it lol
same!
GIRL YEESS!!👏🏼
Same
Me too!🙋🏻♀️
as a greek person your content genuinely warms my heart. it's not everyday i get to see families like my own represented on social media
So similar to the Algerian culture 😮😍🇩🇿🇮🇹 (Mediterranean food vibes ✨❤)
My eyes tear up watching this precious vlog. Reminds me so much of my hometown especially grandma’s house where we used to gather on the weekends 🥹🫶
I'm from Italy, but I live in northern Italy and Calabria looks like a completely different world..it's amazing to see how many differences you can find, even in a relatively small country! We have so much beauty and variety❤️
Sono della Toscana e ti capisco, tipo da noi non si mangiano quelle cose e non si fanno manco i picnic.
You are exactly right! I love Bergamo, Firenze and Napoli. But these cities are so different from each other. I love the variety. Kisses from The Netherlands
Yes! Even though my grandfather’s side is from Venezia-Julia, it is so different! This is also from lens of being multiple generations in American
You're right., my family is from the Veneto region in northern Italy. It's amazing to see how different it is in southern Italy.
Manco da me che sono della Puglia si fanno queste cose... sono un po indietro sinceramente
love how in the comments people from all around the mediterranean have similar experiences! I'm from Greece and your videos basically are my summers, it's so nostalgic and lovely! Also kudos to all the nonnas, yiayias and grannies for being the backbone of feeding entire families on the daily
Same face same race 🇮🇹❤️🇬🇷
What language does the word yiayias come from? And is it pronounced yeeyaas?
@@asmaahmed1567 the greek word for grandma, pronounced yiaayiàà🌷🌞
Yess and the same with Spain
@@fusadiluna So true my friend ! I think we Greeks and Italians enjoy little things in our life such as good food good wine and precious time with our family !!! hello from Athens by the way 👋
The coziest video on CZcams ❤
I rewatch this every once in a while. Especially when I miss Italy. So beautiful 😻
I'm italian and I love all our food and the traditions of this amazing country. Good job girl!
Italians have such respect for food and its because of family cooks like this nonna. Nowadays the stay at home parent isn’t something thats fashionable but look at the happiness you can bring in providing for your family like this, bringing generations together centred around classic home recipes and local ingredients
many people cannot afford to stay at home now and have to go out to work,it isn't akways about choice.Life has got way more expensive and the cost of housing and rents etc.Most people would like to live in communityies like this and enjoy people and food around them
It’s not a comparative of lives chill. You can work and cook for your family at the same time. Stop being bitchy
I would actually be so content with life if I could be a stay at home mom with a part time job but life is so expensive now that’s it’s unrealistic to do so. Maybe it’ll change in the future but for now it’s a fantasy from a different time
@@upendasana7857 Yeah I think it has very little to do with what's fashionable and more that it's unaffordable for most people. Of course forcing women do it IS unfashionable (if that's how you want to think about it) but there are so many families that would like to have the option for mom or dad to stay home.
She’s a grandma she’s retired she probably wasn’t a stay at home parent when she was younger besides you can provide good food and work lol
Dear Rosie, you made me cry with this video. I’m Italian but I’m actually living abroad. When I’m in Italy I take everything for granted, and watching this through your eyes suddenly made me realize how beautiful and simple the life in our country can be. Thanks a lot ❤
czcams.com/video/pM1Y6d-WOVk/video.html vlog :)
I love love love love your videos in Italy and when you eat a week there!! It’s so calming it’s satisfying and charming and personal!! Really gives the feel of what it would be like to be part of an Italian family and that is just amazing that you have captured that!! I’ve always wanted to go to Italy and I’ve always wanted to see what it’s like to be in an Italian family like yours so thank you thank you!!! Please make more!! I can watch these forever!!
Ditto! I too can watch these videos forever! Although I never stayed with an Italian family, I observed when I visited Italy many times how much Italians LOVE food, especially when they eat together. One of the many beautiful things about Italy and it's culture.🥐🍩🍵🌷🙂
these videos' feel like therapy for my heart in winter time, I long for those slow summer days with good food and lovely people around me
this was not just a vlog about food, it was an education to life in Italy. I love the way Italians live, life is much slower there, I can just see that through the way there is siesta, afternoon espresso and buying ingredients a coupe hours before a meal. I am sure its not like this everywhere but this is the Italian life I remember when I visited. this is so fun, thanks for keeping the sound in!!!
And the mouth watering Italian sweets.
@ehmp non è vero lol, noi la vita ce la sappiamo godere molto meglio rispetto agli altri 😉 forse pure troppo
It's more about the summer life of many italians who came from the little town and in particulary from the south or any place near the sea. It's very nostalgic and it's what a I live every year but it's not everyday life especially in the cities.
@ehmp e questa è una grande perdita della nostra identità e non un qualcosa di cui vantarsi. Per copiare gli americani e compagnia ci siamo rovinati!
Pastor please pray for the release of curses and magic. Please pray to facilitate the brain and be given intelligence. Please pray to get rid of the disease in the body. Please pray for smooth finances and be given wealth.
just noticed how similar southern Italy culture is to brazilian culture,the insane amount of food, the houses, the street market,the Sunday lunch, even the loud family is similar! (the language is also similar to brazilian portuguese, i might start studying Italian now)
That’s dialect from Calabria and I can’t understand most of the things they say as a native of Rome
the dialect changes from part to part of Calabria, I'm Calabrian but I don't understand some Calabrian dialects hahaha
Uma das minhas bisavós paternas é filha de imigrantes calabreses (sobrenome Augusto). Realmente, achei a cidadezinha bem parecida com os bairros mais antigos das cidades brasileiras. Muita simplicidade, eu me sentiria em casa.
Eu tive o mesmo sentimento! Vi muita semelhança com o Brasil. ♡
I agree, even the houses, the streets, they all look like southeast Brazil, just like where I live in MG
Girl, this is the most positive thing I have seen in LONG time! I just love your family. It made me truelly happy and very hungry.
Wow… this is such a quality video… sooo informative in such a fun entertaining way. I’ve been following your channel for over a year now and it’s awesome to see how you’ve evolved your videos. Please keep it up!!!
I love how realistic and traditional this is , how people can see a part of Italy out of cliches and see how much good food we have and not only pizza and pasta , my grandma is also from Calabria and I’m from Pisa , Toscana
Il tuo commento è bellissimo, e non vorrei farmi i fatti tuoi. Ma hai la nonna calabrese, tu sei toscana ma il tuo cognome è veneto? Strepitoso! Puoi provare piatti di ogni regione, deve essere bello alla fine poter confrontare diverse tradizioni etc. Spero di non avere invaso la tua privacy, ma dovevo dirtelo!
I agree
My neighbors across the street were a family who had an Italian bakery. I remember once locking myself out or my apartment without shoes or coat and I ran across to use their phone. When I went into the bakery kitchen, the dad, who was an elderly man at the time, was sitting at the table cutting up a slice of watermelon. Without a word, he pointed to a chair for me to sit and handed me a piece of cut up watermelon. I remember that gesture of fatherly hospitality with deep affection.
Thank you! I absolutely LOVE your "what I eat in a week" videos! All your videos are calming and wonderful! Cheers from Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada! :)
This reminds me so much of our family here in the Philippines. Such a wholesome vlog that made me miss my grand mother. :)
My grandma passed away almost two months ago. Seeing you with your nonna and seeing her cooking, melted my heart, missing my grandma every single day. Enjoy your time with her as much as you can
My grandma also passed away 2 months ago. I feel the same way you do. Stay strong ❤ accept my condolences
Same Here its been 1 year Grandma cooking are the best like no other. My heart aches every time I cook one of her meals like My abuela grandma taught me how to cook this. Always in heart so sorry for your grandma loss .
I'm so sorry for your loss 😔sending you a big hug
that's sad I love my grandma so much ...I know it must be hard just never forget her and pray for her 🥺
My grandma passed away last December. I try not to think about it otherwise I go into a deep depressive state of mind
I live in a small town in India and this video made me feel like life is literally the same everywhere. Holidays where family members convenes in the house, go on picnics (braised goat is popular here too) where you eat so much you have to take a nap, go to a religious festival where you can’t enter the temple because there are so many people. And such beautiful simple real meals. Even though it is so different it is also very familiar.
I"m European, Hungarian.so it"s our lifestyle..I am glad you shared it! I love cooking, eating so much,thank"s God, never gained weight. When I cook and eat I feel I am in Heaven.During Covid I lost my sense of smell and could not taste,oh..I remember the moment,when felt the smell of coffee again..Thank"s God!! I just bought tomato sauce today..a lot..haha..Enjoy the video! Ciao!
I’m a new follower and a Nonna! Video brought back great memories of my grandparents; good food & fun times at their house with family and cousins. The simplest things with family make me so happy. Grazie
❤️
You know, you really captured the feelings of Ghibli movies. Watching this made me feel nostalgic, cozy and just really comfortable and at peace. It’s just a slice of life but this was a really beautiful glimpse of your life so thank you and your family so much for sharing! It just reminds me again why life can also be beautiful :)
god yessss! amazing comparison
You took the words right out my mouth. The music, the scenery, the cute old ladies, seaside village and food🥺😍🥰🥰🥰 wonderful
Exactly my thoughts
I really love how the pastries are wrapped like a gift
I think it’s very typical in Europe! At least in Spain, we do the same thing!! ;)
Back in the days, pastries were very expensive and people only ate them during special occasions (especially in southern Italy). When you were invited to someone's house for dinner or had to go somewhere, It was good costume to bring some pastries as a gift
@@Catalyysis It still is
Italians can genuinely put any toppings on pizza and it suddenly sounds amazing, ty Rosie and beautiful Nonna for sharing your days with us.
Such a beautiful film I don’t even want to call it a video this is visually stunning and makes you feel so warm and nostalgic especially for me being Italian. So pure I love this thank you for sharing 🌟
wow Nonna never stops does she? What an amazing woman with delicious recipes. Thank you for sharing.
Nonnas don't have an off button. Both in the positive and negative sense.
I’m Mexican and this honestly made me feel want to visit my hometown 😭 so many similarities!!
Well, latinos and mediterranean people are no so different.
RIGHT!! I was having so much nostalgia the similarities between everything is uncanny
@@Jadezgvrtk i'm Argentinian and SAME!!!
@@garay9927 lots of Argentinians are ethnic Italians so makes sense
@@joenuts5167 yes! we have a very mixed culture
Such a wholesome vlog! Made me feel warmth and makes me miss my family back home. Thank you for sharing as I thoroughly enjoyed this!
Oh how I wish I didn't stop by here. You had me missing all the times I spent in Italy, and all the lovely home made dishes that made my mouth water each time they were being prepared. The food is so fresh and simple with great tastes that linger in your mouth. The rest period in the afternoon to refresh you for what the evening holds. What a vlog you did, so thanks for bringing back the memories.
I'm greek and these videos always feel sooo nostalgic! It's exactly how my childhood was... so sad that it can't be like that anymore, why does time pass oh gosh
Greek here. Σε νιώθω.
Όντως, μένω Αθήνα και μου θυμίζει τα καλοκαίρια στο χωριό....
This made me cry, your nonna reminds me so much of my grandma, im serbian but my grandma would always cook for everyone just like your nonna does, a lot of the foods are also quite similar. This video really made me feel like a kid again, the amount of effort and time and love she puts into her dishes along with all the other work she does to make everyone comfortable really reminds me of my grandma. i also love that everyone gathers around and eats together, it really reminds me of when my grandma would cook for all of us. Thanks for posting this, there really is nothing like a mother/grandmothers love.
Bake najbolje kuvaju, za dusu
The video is sooooo aesthetic and beutiful.... not only have u showed us Italian food, but also some veeeerrryyy beautiful views in Italy
And, your Editing is just Everything. Im so glad i met this channel.
This is the Italian culture, but more generally the Mediterranean culture.
This is what gives us the lifeblood, it is the lifeblood that all the Mediterranean countries have.
That great sea and all the land around that sea is what gives us this hospitality, this love for the family, this love for food, for meat and fish, for our weather.
The Mediterranean sea and this land is what makes us so friendly and happy to meet other cultures and people, it is the culture of sharing everything.
I am happy to live in the best place in the world ☺🥰
Long live all Mediterranean countries and all Mediterranean brothers and sisters.
We have to be proud of our sea and our lands! 💖
I loved your comment!!Greetings from Greece!🌊🌞
you made me cry with those pretty words. greetings from spain 🥰
That's a very sweeping statement. There are good hospitable people in all countries. Italy has just as many bad people as elsewhere. Sicily has been tormented by the mafia for generations.
I am from Turkey and I couldn’t agree more! Even though there are many nice places on earth for me Mediterranean Region is simply the best: the Coast, sea, mild climate, landscapes/mountains, FOOD and the people😍 I feel so lucky to be part of that experience and life style😍🥰🧿🧿
100% agree 🤗greetings from Portugal ❤
There is a strange calm and a sense of peace in these videos. How lovely the sun light is, and how simple and comforting is the food. ♥️
it’s nice to see how their food are all so fresh!!!
@@CLIENMAR truee... i would eat everything that her nonna made, and whatever she eats right there:') everything looks yumm
Thank you for sharing your wonderful family. I’m so glad you treasure them. You’re very lucky and fortunate. Your parents did a good job. Your Nona too
Your Nonna and family truly a blessing ....enjoy your family God bless u all. Great food🙏😊🕊❤️
