I hope you'll enjoy this rather cosy town and its interesting history carved between the Normans, the local Lords and a very medieval background, reflected on its stony charming atmosphere. A quiet town in the beautiful Abruzzo region.
A very quiet town, indeed, beautiful views towards the mountains. Not a soul, except for the one cat in the old town. The narrow alley going up @51.17 is so narrow. Tell me, Riccardo, all these small towns have so few inhabitants but they are all so well maintained and clean. How do they pay for it? Drone intro was fabulous, as per usual. 🤗
I was waiting for Geraldine if she liked also this now ) Good question actually...either the administration is excellent, or the few inhabitants are really keen on maintaining it that way. Maybe both. Though I suspect many are second-houses. Maybe a mix. Loved the town , that was an amazing day as I could visit 2 towns (Anversa and Castrovalva) which were so close and in 1 day. Love Abruzzo. I have some few videos to show !
Hahaha of course I enjoyed it. I do prefer these places rather than the more touristy ones. Although saying that, I love the bigger cities like Roma and Firenze, for the art, museums, music
Btw, this is a different subject, but I am wondering if you would know of someone who is willing to maybe spare 1/2 hour or so whom I can practice italian with (maybe twice a month or so)
YES I'M VERY JEALOUS OF RICCARDO!!!!! I have no problem admitting that I'm jealous. Seriously your going to beautiful places I've been to or want to go to but can't. Besides walking I would also be eating and eating and eating. Thank you so much for letting natural sounds and not music playing through the entire vlog. I love the intros. Riccardo please keep sharing your fabulously well made great quality vlogs.
Dear Lawsonartzy....ohhhh I'm gonna save this and many other comments so, in times of CZcams uncertainty, I'll have to reassure myself a bit ) thank you so much as always..and yup...ate and ate there too I must say )
Смотрю на технологию древних строителей и просто не понимаю, как из совершенно разных камней можно было сложить такие ровные стены. Главное, что стоит это все веками, парадокс.
Ah Ricardo you made it there I’ve been waiting for this one But I love all your video walks. I’m hooked in Boston Massachusetts Thanks for all your fine work🇮🇹🇺🇸
I can’t stop watching this over and over you really out done yourself with this one Ricardo awesome job. I asked for this town in another video and you delivered. Thanks
Remember Scott) Glad you liked it in the end, lovely lovely place, very quiet for some reasons (saw so few people around...) but definitely worth a visit if in Abruzzo. Quite famous as well though, but loved it... a kind of green-sandybeige-beauty all around. Thank you so much for the compliments.. I hope to always improve and show more. Lots to discover for sure,
Agreed Angela, Abruzzo is stunning.. I didn't know it well before to be honest.. but I'm discovering it a lot lately. Stunning place. Thank you too, cloudy day here :/ But ok)
@@StillWanderer Dear Ricardo! Another amazing video! I admire, thanks to you, the small medieval Italian towns - and admire: what cleanliness, how artfully the streets are laid out with stone, it seems that the whole town is one big well-groomed apartment)) and I am very interested - how is the problem of garbage, sewage in such towns solved? Where do its residents work? How do they provide themselves with products? apparently, life is thriving in them, I see a lot of children- quite happy cats on the streets))
@@elapav9614 Ciao Ela! Ithank gli and always glad you enjoy the videos ) I ask the same question to myself... How they make and move stuff... Where they work..

Chère Line ! C'est un plaisir de vous revoir. Content que tu aies aimé. Un pays très calme... mais les Abruzzes c'est presque tout comme ça. De beaux endroits. Je vais en insérer d'autres. Je vous souhaite une bonne semaine et un accueil chaleureux et merci comme toujours! Ric
Muito obrigada Mara! Já faz 2 anos ..! Comecei este projeto de mostrar as cidades "inusitadas" da Itália e feliz que algumas pessoas possam desfrutar também destas e não só das famosas! Uma grande saudação de Roma Ric
Another beautiful town , it's quietness is so amazing . Video is really very interesting as well as thought provoking . About human nature , history , paradoxes of modern civilization , natural beauty etc . Wonderful work .
Dear Rajyashree I was waiting to know if you enjoyed also this new tour... glad you did. Loved it too, and I agree... it's a mix of many things for sure. As you know, I love these tiny towns. Quiet but always charming
I think I love this the most, from all the borghi you presented till now. The tall, green mountains around, the well preserved facades, the old wooden doors, the minimal design of pavements, the cleanliness and quietness. Also, your videos are by far the best from what I can find on CZcams presenting the small towns of Italy, in respect of content, style and image quality. Is the other face of Italy (beside the cities and famous touristic centers). Your account is steep by steep becoming a video encyclopedia of this amazing, lesser known world of Italian small localities.
Dear Andrei, so happy to see you again and always happy to read such words. You can't imagine how that truly makes my day. There are obviously times if self doubting sometimes, and to read such words ...it's a fresh "re-start" to continue in this journey and to always try to improve and show more...truly, Andrei, thank you so much b✌️
That sounds like a very interesting book Andrei. I have something similar about Lazio at my home - a photographic collection of the most peculiar towns.i took a lot of inspiration from that I must add
@@andreistirbu2733 Happy Andrei for this, truly. We're now like a group of friends in this small channel I believe, and this is priceless... gives a human aspect to the virtuality of all the videos I believe. I filmed quite a few towns.. more will come, in October the weather won't be maybe great but... I will plan also something
This is really the benefit of subscribing to a channel, you don't miss these great videos. This is another epic video of a medieval town in this region of Abruzzo. Very picturesque with scenic views of the mountains. I enjoyed it, thanks.
Dear Esther, thank you so much, as always by the way. We've all become a group of friends here I must say, and this alone is a great great value which truly adds spice and "life" to an otherwise "virtual" youtube channel. Loved the town, very quiet even on a Sunday but... charming for sure. I'll post some more from when I was in Abruzzo soon
@@StillWanderer I just wanted to add one more point here. I have read some people have choices in what they watch, but earnestly, I love all Italian towns and cities. Whether in Sicily in the south, Northern, medieval, center, or more modern, I enjoyed all of them. You have grown in the business quickly. You are now one of the top two walking tours videos in Italy in my opinion. Keep up the good work.
Agreed Esther with you. In a way , I must say that I know the center-north much better than the south as I was more often there...that's the reason why I went often to the south this summer, as to explore places I haven't seen ever in my life. But there's so much to see...almost limitless. Thank you so much for your kind words. It's still a small town in this huge jungle of CZcams, but your words surely encourage me a lot in this journey. As I always said to myself "as long as I love doing this it's great!"
@@StillWanderer Thanks for your reply. One of the reasons I respond quite often very quickly when you post on CZcams is because I do analyst work using my Apple iPad and Samsung tablet. I'm on these things the whole day and see everything passing through CZcams. Keep producing and I will keep on enjoying the videos.
Ciao Mare! Ohh Japan, maybe the first time I see a comment from such an astonishing beautiful country! I had the idea of creating this channel 2 years ago after watching similar channels of walking in Japan.. it's one of my favourite ever countries. Never was unfortunately, but I'll surely go one day..!
This small town has such beautiful scenery, amazing views and interesting history. There were many scenes that I liked in this one that I can't name them all, but I did enjoy the walk you had at Via Castello very much. I even rewinded it a couple of times! Indeed an amazing place to visit. Again great job showing us these really stunning and beautiful places.
Glad you enjoyed also Anversa dear Lang, agreed about the part towards the Castle, that was one of the best area I found myself in. Loved the town, very quiet (perhaps too much) but with a beautiful atmosphere. Wish you a nice Sunday!
Как я люблю такие места, с характером региона, историей на каждом шагу ! Жизнь, скрытая от множества глаз и парящая на высоких, зелёных холмах! Привет, Риккардо! Хотелось бы и тебя увидеть, иногда, если это возможно, путника, который пробует местную кухню, отдыхает и общаться с местным жителями. Понимаю, это не всегда получается, но экспромтом, это даже ещё лучше! Не только любуемся, но и дигустируем, общаемся. Обожаю звуки улиц, шагов и живой речи, особенно тех, кто там живёт. Да, не всегда получается найти такие места, где мало туристов, но ты знаешь куда нас повести. Пишу редко, но следую виртуально по твоим тропам. Удачи и вдохновения тебе!🌄🌄
Привет Алиса! На самом деле я никогда не думал об этих дополнительных функциях, но ... Возможно, я мог бы попробовать сделать это в некоторых местах, может быть, в крошечных деревнях или в каких-то специальных магазинах. Я думал, может быть, снять эти разные туры (очень короткие интервью или тому подобное) как отдельные фильмы для загрузки ... отличная идея. Я посмотрю что я могу сделать. Я уже однажды это делал ... когда я заходил в типичный трулло в Апулии, проверьте это! И дайте мне знать, если вы думаете, что это хорошо. Я также скоро опубликую еще один в Апулии. Но отсняли мало ... хорошая идея ... посмотрю как сделать
@@StillWanderer Да, я помню это видео! Все зависит от того, кто встретится на твоём пути, и чем вкусным можно поделиться с нами из местных тавверней. Это всегда интересно! Ведь"из нашего окна" всегда другая картинка, а на кухне- "свой суп" Понимаешь?
@@aliceo5095 Согласен точно Алиса) Это наверняка зависит от людей, я также должен спросить, любят ли они, чтобы их снимали, из соображений конфиденциальности и всего остального, но это очень хорошая идея, так как канал может извлечь выгоду из таких разных видео. Это наверняка будет немного более "интимным" в городах. Постараюсь, если увижу интересных людей и места, где это можно сделать!
@@StillWanderer отличная идея, и еда тоже - маленькие радости туриста:) Думаю что это добавит" изюминку" и живой интерес ! Удачи тебе, как всегда и интересных встреч!
Riccardo, how do people in these small towns shop for groceries? Small local shops or drive to a larger town with larger stores? Do wild animals inhabit the forests and hills? The word "precise" (in some areas) comes to mind as we walk these streets. Your videoing has become so smooth it's as if I'm floating through this charming town. Thank you for yet another enchanting adventure. Yikes! What kind of monstrous bug was that at 59:40? Had to chuckle -- you almost had a traffic jam at 1:08:49!
Sharon! Hih, i definitely chuckled at both moments, as I didn't actually notice them at all) Usually when I stop to relax , I leave the camera there and go a little around (behind it) to see some more, always keeping an eye on it of course, so... or I just enjoy some views around. About the groceries... well it's an interesting question; since the inhabitants are only 300 I suspect the majority of the houses are "second homes" for people living away (maybe in bigger cities). I saw some shops in the main square, and usually the "daily groceries" are bought there. Couldn't really see big supermarkets around though, away from the town, but I'm sure maybe a 20 minute drive and there they are. Older people usually walk with their groceries in these tiny alleys , like in other italian villages, like it's the usual way they always did. Tough? Yup...
@@vegavit2984 More than I could ever write, Vega, thank you. It's in a way a mix of things... though... where I live the small shops are usually enough for the older residents; not always they have relatives to help them :/
@@vegavit2984 Thank you! You've indeed answered two questions that have been on my mind since starting to watch Still Wanderer. The small towns, with all their narrow walkways, don't allow for a car to drive up next to the door to drop off groceries. I envision people climbing stairs with bags weighing them down. Provision of food is also provided by the neighborhood cat in some instances. 😉
Muchas gracias Yolanda, en este período difícil para mí tu mensaje es realmente útil y acogedor ... Espero lo mismo para ti, bendición, paz y felicidad. Un saludo a la hermosa Argentina
Thank you CL, indeed... a Sunday walk but so few people... I read that only 300 inhabitants there but so many houses... maybe they are 2nd homes for sure...
Actually "Anversa" is the Italian name for the Flemish(Belgium) city of Antwerp and the qualifier d'Abruzzo would have been added to distinguish this town from the much much larger Belgian city!In the same way in Italian Munich in Bavaria,Germany is called "Monaco d'Baviera" to distinguish it from the country of Monaco on the Mediterranean -both names refer to the monastic origins of the places.
True Kalo, it was quite a feat replacing the translated words in the Description from Antwerp to Anversa when I used the transletor in fact) Very true about the monastic origins as well. Usually I just love these small or tiny mostly "not famous" towns, that's the spirit of the channel (though, with time I also filmed in Rome and famous places of course... but still..)
@@StillWanderer haha I've never done this before either 😅 I just just looked at tee spring last night but I couldn't find products I had to make an account...
No people.Siesta time?anyone know where the electrical power lines are? Oh yes these buildings have electricity and running clean water and sanitary water .Brava Italian ancestors builders..Sempre Italia
Hermoso pueblo mágico por su arquitectura, calles adoquinadas, ubicado entre montañas, limpio, tranquilo. Mi estimado Riccardo me gustaría recorrer las calles de este pintoresco lugar, meditar mientras observo las impresionantes montañas, agradezco tu esfuerzo por hacer tan bonitos recorridos, saludos desde 🇲🇽 🤗 cuídate.
Querida Lupita, siempre feliz de leer de ti, supongo que somos como un grupo de amigos aquí. ¡Esto es simplemente fantástico y mucho más que un canal de youtube normal! Me encantó la ciudad también, muy, muy hermosa; su desierto era típico pero también bastante encantador. Me alegro de que también te haya gustado esto. Mostraré más sobre Abruzzo, impresionante región montañosa.
Hola mí estimado Riccardo así es, somos un grupo de personas que nos gusta conocer lugares bellos gracias a ti, en lo personal me da gusto leer a los compañeros que les gusta la historia, arte, cultura y puedes darte cuenta la sensibilidad que ellos tienen a través de sus comentarios. Estoy enamorada de Italia!!! no solo por su historia, también por lo bonito y cuidados que tienen sus pueblos medievales y mágicos 😍 Bonita tarde Riccardo 🤗.
@@lupitadiaz177 Tan feliz por tales palabras Lupita .. y tan feliz de ser parte de este grupo entonces; Puedo dar las gracias, pero eso no sería suficiente. ¡Buenas noches a ti también! Ciao de un amigo
Dear Joseph, so glad to know this and to know these videos of these towns are appreciated. I sometimes often wondered if people would be intrested in the "unknown" towns of Italy instead of the more famous ones... I'm happy there are other fans like me who loves to see these small towns. I hope to always improve and show interesting places. A big salute from Rome area Ric
Hi Margot, oh many towns in Abruzzo region I filmed... if you watch the main page you can see the Playlist of the Abruzzi towns I already were... more to come of course too
Hello again. This is so close to Sulmona where I plan to spend a night if I can get back to Italy...this gives me an idea of the terrain of the area which is what I'm most interested in. Have you gone to Gran Sasso yet, or are you on your way there now?
Hi Nina, still haven't really visited well the Gran Sasso area or the town nearby, but I'm planning to go there for sure... Sulmona also is a must; Need to plan a little but I'll definitely go there, maybe in Autumn. I filmed another town which will be published next week hopefully , Caramanico Terme... another stunning place for sure. There's a lot to see in Abruzzo, and I'm planning to film more; maybe it's the best season before it gets too cold there actually!
I hope you'll enjoy this rather cosy town and its interesting history carved between the Normans, the local Lords and a very medieval background, reflected on its stony charming atmosphere. A quiet town in the beautiful Abruzzo region.

On the "to do" list Bryan! Going definetely there
Love the video and town, just wondering where are all the residents? The streets are so empty.
Thank you CL, indeed... a Sunday walk but so few people... I read that only 300 inhabitants there but so many houses... maybe they are 2nd homes for sure...
Actually "Anversa" is the Italian name for the Flemish(Belgium) city of Antwerp and the qualifier d'Abruzzo would have been added to distinguish this town from the much much larger Belgian city!In the same way in Italian Munich in Bavaria,Germany is called "Monaco d'Baviera" to distinguish it from the country of Monaco on the Mediterranean -both names refer to the monastic origins of the places.
True Kalo, it was quite a feat replacing the translated words in the Description from Antwerp to Anversa when I used the transletor in fact)
Very true about the monastic origins as well. Usually I just love these small or tiny mostly "not famous" towns, that's the spirit of the channel (though, with time I also filmed in Rome and famous places of course... but still..)
This town is absolutely beautiful!
Are you able to do merchandise? I bet you have some beautiful pictures you can make some beautiful products with!
Hi Jess! Oh my... I never actually thought of something like this.. do you think people would be interested?
@@StillWanderer I think so!
You should get some shirts that has you channel name on it to advertise your self too 😃
@@jessicabey275 very newbie in this Jess)) I'll see how , can't even know where to start
@@StillWanderer haha I've never done this before either 😅
I just just looked at tee spring last night but I couldn't find products I had to make an account...
I just know the name though never checked..I'll see !
Wich one is true? Italy is a piece of heaven or heaven is a piece of Italy?💖❤🧡💛💚💙💜💖❤🧡💛💚💙💜
Good question Max) I guess it's up to everyone's sensibility to decide for sure
No people.Siesta time?anyone know where the electrical power lines are? Oh yes these buildings have electricity and running clean water and sanitary water .Brava Italian ancestors builders..Sempre Italia
Indeed such a quiet place John. very strange as it was Sunday though.. probably not many living there permanently, that's what I reckon
Hermoso pueblo mágico por su arquitectura, calles adoquinadas, ubicado entre montañas, limpio, tranquilo. Mi estimado Riccardo me gustaría recorrer las calles de este pintoresco lugar, meditar mientras observo las impresionantes montañas, agradezco tu esfuerzo por hacer tan bonitos recorridos, saludos desde 🇲🇽 🤗 cuídate.
Querida Lupita, siempre feliz de leer de ti, supongo que somos como un grupo de amigos aquí. ¡Esto es simplemente fantástico y mucho más que un canal de youtube normal! Me encantó la ciudad también, muy, muy hermosa; su desierto era típico pero también bastante encantador. Me alegro de que también te haya gustado esto. Mostraré más sobre Abruzzo, impresionante región montañosa.
Hola mí estimado Riccardo así es, somos un grupo de personas que nos gusta conocer lugares bellos gracias a ti, en lo personal me da gusto leer a los compañeros que les gusta la historia, arte, cultura y puedes darte cuenta la sensibilidad que ellos tienen a través de sus comentarios.
Estoy enamorada de Italia!!! no solo por su historia, también por lo bonito y cuidados que tienen sus pueblos medievales y mágicos 😍
Bonita tarde Riccardo 🤗.
@@lupitadiaz177 Tan feliz por tales palabras Lupita .. y tan feliz de ser parte de este grupo entonces; Puedo dar las gracias, pero eso no sería suficiente. ¡Buenas noches a ti también! Ciao de un amigo
@@StillWanderer Gracias a ti, pasa bonita noche 😴
🤗 y ti!
hello to you...always enjoy your videos..give me a chance to explore italy while living in the usa
Dear Joseph, so glad to know this and to know these videos of these towns are appreciated. I sometimes often wondered if people would be intrested in the "unknown" towns of Italy instead of the more famous ones... I'm happy there are other fans like me who loves to see these small towns. I hope to always improve and show interesting places. A big salute from Rome area

My grandparents were from Abruzzi, are there other homes outside of this area that would be considered Abruzzi?
Hi Margot, oh many towns in Abruzzo region I filmed... if you watch the main page you can see the Playlist of the Abruzzi towns I already were... more to come of course too
Think I saw my Zia Vera DiVito’ home

Obrigado Regina!
Hello again. This is so close to Sulmona where I plan to spend a night if I can get back to Italy...this gives me an idea of the terrain of the area which is what I'm most interested in. Have you gone to Gran Sasso yet, or are you on your way there now?
Hi Nina, still haven't really visited well the Gran Sasso area or the town nearby, but I'm planning to go there for sure... Sulmona also is a must; Need to plan a little but I'll definitely go there, maybe in Autumn. I filmed another town which will be published next week hopefully , Caramanico Terme... another stunning place for sure. There's a lot to see in Abruzzo, and I'm planning to film more; maybe it's the best season before it gets too cold there actually!
every town and city are the same in Italy
Not so quite )
