Hi, I'm Italian and I really want to say that the quality of your video is so good, in these days I will see all of yours videos about Italy, because I've found them so cute and well done.
I went to that cat sanctuary when I was in Rome about 6 years ago! I’m so glad to hear it’s still up and running. I was backpacking Europe and was missing my cats at home so this did the trick. I spent probably way too long petting all the cats and almost crying the entire time 😹
Trastevere is so beautiful! That's the hood I stayed in while in Rome. I'm chuckling as you guys keep mentioning how "crowded" it is in Rome, but you guys actually are there at a great time - shoulder season. So just multiply what you see there by 4 or 5, or 10, and that's Rome in the summer! LOL.
Rome is truly captivating.😍 Everywhere you look is bursting with history and beauty. We visited the city during Spring as part of our DIY EUROTRIP vlog. The entire city is rich with art, sculpture and architecture. 🤩🤩🤩 Its like walking inside a huge museum. ❤️❤️❤️
We absolutely love Rome! We have been lucky enough to visit here twice and still have not seen everything we want to see. Trastevere is our favourite spot in Rome. Best food, bars and vibes. Can’t wait to get back!
My mouth was watering at the little cheese balls and then I lost it at the carbonara 🤤 I’ve had it in Greece but I’m sure it’s 100 times more amazing there!
For our honeymoon, my husband and I took a Mediterranean cruise. It was absolutely amazing, and we decided to extend our stay when we returned by one day so that we could see Rome. We used the Metro to get to all the hotspots, seeing the Mouth of Truth, the Forum, Colosseum, we are gelato on the Spanish Steps at sunset, and got to see the Trevi Fountain lit up at night. Best trip ever! Our flight back want until Murray the next day, so we spent a few hours in St. Peter's Basilica and the Vatican City Museum, which took us to the Sistine Chapel 😍
I was in Rome 1 month ago and Im super jelly of the 2 of you. The suppli store you went to was 1min away from my accommodation and I ate there everyday
Yep , agree about the starlings. Rome is such an incredible city, so many facets to it. My husband and I had a 5 day visit in February a few tears back. We stayed in a cheap but very good 3* hotel within a very easy 10 minute bus ride to the centre. It was a lot cooler than other times of the year, but it was much warmer than the UK at that time of the year and the main visitor attractions were a lot less busy. We spent a whole day wandering around the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill. So much history! Rome also has so much good food. If you do your research beforehand (Trip Advisor etc.), it’s really easy to walk a short way from all the the touristy centres to more authentic places to find good and cheap restaurants. We also spent a whole day in the Vatican Museums (tip...avoid the hawkers offering tickets, just go and buy your tickets direct at the museum on the day out of season). Our best meal was a very short walk from St Peter’s Square in a street in the Borgio. Really good food, and just far enough down the street to be off the tourist trap. The owner claimed the saffron and zucchini based pasta dish I ordered was one of Pope Benedict’s favourites before he became the Pope, and I believed her. It’s the area where he had lived before he was elected Pope and she hadn’t inflated the price. For such a lovely dish, it was a real bargain.
Honestly one of my favorite blogs in Roma, spent around 14 days myself in this city and I'm glad someone finally mentioned Trastevere. Wonderful neighborhood in this city. Good stuff! You got me subscribed!
You beat me to it. Rome is known for lots of murmurations of starlings in winter. Are you the Neil Egan who worked at 1A Sophia? If you are you will know what I am referring to.
Thank you for that. I knew they were starlings as soon as I saw them (get a lot of that here in UK too) but I had no idea it was called a murmuration..... Everyday should be a school day :)
Awwwww those kitties! I was in Rome a few years ago. It was mid December, and the weather was great. Pretty much like what you guys seem to be having in this video. And it was still really busy too. We went several times to a little restaurant, which was so very cosy, and the staff were super friendly. It's called 'La fontana di Venere'. It's close to the Trevi fountain, but very much tucked away in a side street. I highly recommend it to anyone who goes to Rome. I had the carbonara pasta there too actually. And you're right, it's a complete meal, I certainly could not eat anything else after that, haha. We did end off with some house made limoncello though, yum yum :)
Been to Rome 5 or so times. So glad you tried Carbonara, fresh pasta , Guanciale, pepper, egg. Simple and classic. Portion size small as usually you would take 4 or so courses.
Ahhhh you guys!!!! I’m so glad you went to Rome even if it was just for a day 🥰 I really wanna go here, I wanna see the colosseum at least once in my life, it looks absolutely beautiful 🥰 the cream puff incident made me giggle, hope you still enjoyed them though! Looking forward to the next one :)
Thank you for the video! I am thinking about bringing my mom to visit the Vatican but I had been afraid that I would break the bank to do so. Thank you for showing some cheap eats.
Pretty sure there is a cafeteria at the Vatican as well - I don't think the prices were terrible and it was the best gnocchi I had during our week there.
I love Rome! Even though it was sweltering hot and in some places (like Vatican) very crowded it still remains my favorite city. Super excited for Sicily as I always wanted to visit!
Yes. Starlings come with civilization. They like cities. Sadly, they run the native birds out of their home territory. You'll almost never see a murmuration of starlings over a town with a population under +/- 30,000 people.
I agree. Have seen these often in the fall in the North Country of the Northeast US. They are definitely starlings. P.S. love your videos Endless Adventurers.
Just catching up on my Endless Adventure fix. I was there about the same time as you guys. It would have been really cool to bump into you! Thanks for reliving the memories for me.
I'm enjoying these videos, Italy looks amazing. I did try to see if Charlie the cat was in Eric's backpack when they were going to look at the sunset, I think he has a new feline friend :-)
Was great to see you guys exploring Rome. I lived there my last three years of high school, so seeing everything again brought back a lot of memories. I have done my fair share of pasta + meat + dessert Italian meals! Hard to believe this was less than 18 months ago, feels like a different lifetime.
Ah we LOOOVED Rome! It was the first stop we had on our adventure over to Europe. We spent 4 days in Rome and still didn't think that was enough. MAN do we wish we were vlogging back then! What was your favourite part? We liked the Colosseum, but thought the Forum was a lot better (which we didn't expect). Our favourite thing was walking the streets and seeing where the old meets the new. There were heaps of places with new flats built on top of ancient ruins. We really want to go back some time because we've definitely left a piece of our hearts there ❤️ I hope you guys get a chance in the future to spend a bit more time in Rome! 🇮🇹
Eric your cinematic skills have greatly improved (I’m envious)! Great video, we too love to travel off season! Thanks for sharing! Safe travels! Cara & John
Lol, I wouldn’t call Trastevere (emphasis on the second syllable) unknown or up and coming. It’s one of the most well known, and highly touristed areas of Rome. Nice, but the secret has been out for decades.
Maritozzi and Suppli’, Carbonara, Amatriciana…..only thing missing is Cacio e Pepe and some nice Trippa….. it’s been 50yrs since my last meal there . How I envy you lol Great video
Long strands of pasta, like spaghetti, are always served with a tablespoon and a fork. You pick up a mouthful of pasta with the fork in your right hand and twirl it against the bowl side of the tablespoon, forming a compact ball of pasta which you neatly consume. That is the etiquette of eating this type of pasta in Italy. Biting off the strands of pasta hanging from your mouth is considered "mala figura" or "bad figure" in Italy. The closest concept to this in the US is "that is simply not don." Most Italians would not be rude enough to correct you but it would diminish their impression of you.
Congrats for your hilarious videos, showing us these beautiful places in such a funny way!! You said that you are heading to Sicily. Were there 4 years ago and we had such an incredible time, despite of the small incident when they robbed the four wheels from our car. Don't miss fascinating spots like the temples of Agrigento, the medieval village of Erice, romantic towns of Siracusa or Taormina etc. Enjoy!!
So cool to see you guys in Rome, don't think any of the CZcamsrs we watch have been there, that we can think of. It's VERY busy, very touristy, and super chaotic, but I think it's definitely a must-see, especially, as you said, if you're into history. Those kitties were so cute! haha We'll have to check that place out if we ever go there again.
I have only visited Rome briefly and want to go there for a longer stay and really explore it. The video was really inspiring and got me thinking about going maybe next year. I have only been to Palermo in Sicily and that was work related although I hear the island is really beautiful. Palermo was great though with some wonderful restaurants. The street markets are really amazing! Looking forward to seeing the video!
12:28 those are common starlings actually..I met them last winter when they kept landing on my window and I kept feeding them without knowing what kind of bird they were...eventually I googled them up, and I was totally amazed when I saw their cloudy fly in flocks ✨
Love the cheese pull, wish more cheese there🤤 I've been to Rome in just few hours to visit Colosseum (joined guided tour lol) and didn't have chance to venture the food. They looked so good, can't wait to try next time 😋
I have spend a week at a time a couple times in Rome and I'd still go back to see more. I'd also like more time in Venice, a week was not long enough there.
Hey guys love your vlogs and the locations, I just heard you say your traveling to Sicily, please if you have time go to a beautiful medieval town called Licata, it’s a province of Agrigento where the Greek Temples are.
You two are lucky! When I went to Rome a few years back I went in May and it was soooo packed!! I really didn’t enjoy it for long because it was too many people! Also, there was 4 weddings going on!
We just scheduled our next Q & A for our Patrons, coming up next Saturday! To participate, become a member here 👉 www.patreon.com/TheEndlessAdventure
Hi, I'm Italian and I really want to say that the quality of your video is so good, in these days I will see all of yours videos about Italy, because I've found them so cute and well done.
When birds fly in those beautiful swirling flocks it's called a murmuration.
And starlings are famous for that!
Love how you guys always include the cats wherever you go.
Those bird formations come through here every spring & are mesmerizing to watch! Also, it is a great honor to be chosen by a cat! 🐱🦅💜💙💚💟
Love that you are still both so humble and natural!
I've been to Rome, alot of history, the people, food, the ambiance, unbelievable . I stayed at a 4 star hotel, soooooo beautiful!!!!,💗
I went to that cat sanctuary when I was in Rome about 6 years ago! I’m so glad to hear it’s still up and running. I was backpacking Europe and was missing my cats at home so this did the trick. I spent probably way too long petting all the cats and almost crying the entire time 😹
Fell in love with cacio e Pepe @ Roma Sparita Thks to the beloved Bourdain
Oh it's a freakinh amazing place
Oh, how I miss MY Saint Anthony, the brilliant Mr. Bourdain.
I absolutely love that dish. So simple yet so perfect. I always ask for extra pepper though bc I love my spice
I had that twice in Rome and loved it, along with Carbonara.
best pasta ever actually. with puttanesca coming in second
Both of you never fail to deliver a great video every time. Thanks for sharing this with those that are thankful for them.
Rome is so beautiful ...love it
I'm was in Rome for the first time at Easter 2019 and it was awesome!!
Such a beautiful city!!❤ROME❤
Trastevere is so beautiful! That's the hood I stayed in while in Rome. I'm chuckling as you guys keep mentioning how "crowded" it is in Rome, but you guys actually are there at a great time - shoulder season. So just multiply what you see there by 4 or 5, or 10, and that's Rome in the summer! LOL.

I went to Rome a long time ago and l want to go back again. Thank you for showing me Rome again
We absolutely love Rome! We have been lucky enough to visit here twice and still have not seen everything we want to see.
Trastevere is our favourite spot in Rome. Best food, bars and vibes. Can’t wait to get back!
My mouth was watering at the little cheese balls and then I lost it at the carbonara 🤤 I’ve had it in Greece but I’m sure it’s 100 times more amazing there!
Love that city. I’ll be there shooting some content in the spring. What’s amazing is that there is so much buried beneath the city that is unexplored.
For our honeymoon, my husband and I took a Mediterranean cruise. It was absolutely amazing, and we decided to extend our stay when we returned by one day so that we could see Rome. We used the Metro to get to all the hotspots, seeing the Mouth of Truth, the Forum, Colosseum, we are gelato on the Spanish Steps at sunset, and got to see the Trevi Fountain lit up at night. Best trip ever! Our flight back want until Murray the next day, so we spent a few hours in St. Peter's Basilica and the Vatican City Museum, which took us to the Sistine Chapel 😍

My favorite city.....campo del fiori is my favorite spots.....💗
These two young people are so cute and soooo talented. I find myself marveling at their unprecedented abilities in so many different venues!
Honestly one of my favorite blogs in Roma, spent around 14 days myself in this city and I'm glad someone finally mentioned Trastevere. Wonderful neighborhood in this city. Good stuff! You got me subscribed!
Those birds are Starlings. They fly like that when coming in to roost for the night. The display is called a murmuration
yep !
You beat me to it. Rome is known for lots of murmurations of starlings in winter. Are you the Neil Egan who worked at 1A Sophia? If you are you will know what I am referring to.
Sadly I have no idea what 1A Sophia is, so I guess I am not.
Thank you for that. I knew they were starlings as soon as I saw them (get a lot of that here in UK too) but I had no idea it was called a murmuration.....
Everyday should be a school day :)
Neil Egan interesting. It looked like art.
I have been waiting for a new video! My eyes have been blessed, thanks you two!
The best CBD in the world! It feels like walking through a museum.
I love the food descriptions they help take me away to a new place. A place I can dream of that isn’t day to day living. Thank you for your videos.
Rome done right..thank you sweetest couple ever❤️👍🏼food ,food, food😋
That place is the best place for suppli' in the city, known mostly by locals. This is smart traveling.
“Sticks his hands in my puff” is my new favorite quote.
Rome is amazing
God job sneaking in Largo di Torre Argentina. lol That 5 & more cats law is well done. GO ROME!
Awwwww those kitties!
I was in Rome a few years ago. It was mid December, and the weather was great. Pretty much like what you guys seem to be having in this video. And it was still really busy too.

Great Video! We stayed in Trastevere this summer for three days and fell in love with it. You picked a great neighborhood to stay.
the ancients were wayyyyy smarter than we are!
love you guys!!
500k people, 1 million animals, 1 coliseum.
WARNING! This is not to be watched if you are hungry and have no pasta in the house. 😂 Great adventures. Love it. Cheers.
mouth is watering from that pasta!!
this lady has a great smile and the more the better ,good luck on your adventures you two.
I found my new favorite travel channel. I like you two have a good balance of being excited and calm.
Ahhhh you guys!!!! I’m so glad you went to Rome even if it was just for a day 🥰 I really wanna go here, I wanna see the colosseum at least once in my life, it looks absolutely beautiful 🥰 the cream puff incident made me giggle, hope you still enjoyed them though! Looking forward to the next one :)

You guys are the cutest I loved this video because it reminded me of the time I spent 2 weeks in ROMA. Thank you for the video
I went to Rome last year and found that portions were big like in America!!
Really? I thought the portions were smaller. The pasta was so good I always wanted more.
I love Rome! Even though it was sweltering hot and in some places (like Vatican) very crowded it still remains my favorite city. Super excited for Sicily as I always wanted to visit!
Don't think those were bats, Starlings more like, a " Murmuration" of Starlings :)
Yes. Starlings come with civilization. They like cities. Sadly, they run the native birds out of their home territory. You'll almost never see a murmuration of starlings over a town with a population under +/- 30,000 people.
You're correct @marty mc , they are a murmuration of starlings
Flocking Starlings :-)
I agree. Have seen these often in the fall in the North Country of the Northeast US. They are definitely starlings. P.S. love your videos Endless Adventurers.

Hard to believe this was less than 18 months ago, feels like a different lifetime.
It's a murmuraration of starlings... we have this in Blackpool Uk too :) over the North Pier.
Two forks 😂 this is why I love you guys. Genuine footage!
wonderful video and has given me an emotional feelings that i love italy. been there many times from south america
(12:37) It looks really cool when all of the birds form into a giant bird shape.
The cat sanctuary is absolutely Awesome!!!! It made my day!😻
Ah we LOOOVED Rome! It was the first stop we had on our adventure over to Europe. We spent 4 days in Rome and still didn't think that was enough. MAN do we wish we were vlogging back then!

Definitely one of those places where you spend ages and ages
@@lostfox27 Yeah we could easily spend another week there seeing completely new sights. We loved it so much!
@@BeyondYourDoorstep here here
Piazza Navona is the best!!
Eric your cinematic skills have greatly improved (I’m envious)! Great video, we too love to travel off season! Thanks for sharing! Safe travels! Cara & John
I think I gonna visit Rome just for the Cat Sanctuary🐈
I went to Rome last October on my first ever solo trip - i loved it so much!
Lol, I wouldn’t call Trastevere (emphasis on the second syllable) unknown or up and coming. It’s one of the most well known, and highly touristed areas of Rome. Nice, but the secret has been out for decades.
Haha, that's what I thought too ^_^
so true
Love you guys! Been watching your awesome travel vlogs for over 2 weeks now since I found your channel. Keep it up and stay safe all the time.
Maritozzi and Suppli’, Carbonara, Amatriciana…..only thing missing is Cacio e Pepe and some nice Trippa….. it’s been 50yrs since my last meal there .
How I envy you lol
Great video
I want to see and eat everything you did. Sooooooo going to see those cats too.
Grew up on rice balls as a family holiday treat. (Missing them & Mom this Thanksgiving Day.) You got fantastic versions of them!!
You guys are now our favourite vloggers!!🤩👍👏
You guys really need an Italian to teach you how to eat pasta.
Long strands of pasta, like spaghetti, are always served with a tablespoon and a fork. You pick up a mouthful of pasta with the fork in your right hand and twirl it against the bowl side of the tablespoon, forming a compact ball of pasta which you neatly consume. That is the etiquette of eating this type of pasta in Italy. Biting off the strands of pasta hanging from your mouth is considered "mala figura" or "bad figure" in Italy. The closest concept to this in the US is "that is simply not don." Most Italians would not be rude enough to correct you but it would diminish their impression of you.
Very nice sharing
Excellent as always, though I imagine you had a few problems with the drone
I was literally petting my cat when the cat part came on 😂😂
Oh the view from the januculum Hill is just fantastic and the equestrian of garibaldi right behind
Thanks for the shout out you two 😘 Wouldn’t mind a couple of suppli right about now 🤤 Great video! Cheers, Sheena
Same! We need more suppli in our lives, for sure! Thanks for the recommendation 🙌💗
I love your little comments on the video it's very funny 😂
Omg love italy!!! Can’t wait to explore ourselves!! 💛💛 would you recommend more time in Rome’s or was one day food to see everything ou wanted?
I loved Rome !
Always love your food episodes! 😋 hungryyyyyy
Congrats for your hilarious videos, showing us these beautiful places in such a funny way!! You said that you are heading to Sicily.

Best city in the WORLD By far...
I have only visited Rome briefly and want to go there for a longer stay and really explore it. The video was really inspiring and got me thinking about going maybe next year. I have only been to Palermo in Sicily and that was work related although I hear the island is really beautiful. Palermo was great though with some wonderful restaurants.

Several murmurations going on there. How lovely. They are normally starling birds.
1:33 What a pretty cup of coffee! It looks quite delicious for Italy!
HI, love all your video. you guys are a real inspiration for our channel
12:28 those are common starlings actually..I met them last winter when they kept landing on my window and I kept feeding them without knowing what kind of bird they were...eventually I googled them up, and I was totally amazed when I saw their cloudy fly in flocks ✨
Love the cheese pull, wish more cheese there🤤 I've been to Rome in just few hours to visit Colosseum (joined guided tour lol) and didn't have chance to venture the food. They looked so good, can't wait to try next time 😋
You had me at stuck his hand in my puff.
I love your videos but they always make me feel hungry 😋
Guys I live one hour away from Romeeee! 😭😭😭 I would have loved to meet you!!!!❤️
Love love love
You have the best videos ❤😎🤟
Love from karachi 😍😍
I M simply addicted😍😍😍
I'll explore the city later, I'll go for street food first. Heard, Italy has the best street food collection.
no street food - the best restaurants in the world - never eat near tourist attractions though!!
I have spend a week at a time a couple times in Rome and I'd still go back to see more. I'd also like more time in Venice, a week was not long enough there.
Hey guys love your vlogs and the locations, I just heard you say your traveling to Sicily, please if you have time go to a beautiful medieval town called Licata, it’s a province of Agrigento where the Greek Temples are.
Yay, only about 5000 more until you guys hit the big 300,000 thousand milestone :)
Where is your backpack from? I love it!
Yeah, Rome is nice!
Also do the trevi fountain and Naples Italy thanks please do
The trevi fountain thanks
Trevi is WAY to touristy! go for 10 minutes then get out of there!
You two are lucky! When I went to Rome a few years back I went in May and it was soooo packed!! I really didn’t enjoy it for long because it was too many people! Also, there was 4 weddings going on!
any Visit to Rome is enjoyable - HOW can you not enjoy it? No respect for anyone who doesn't enjoy Rome..they have no idea
Charly Catlin hahhaahha i am dead :D :D :D
