The stockfish that arrives here in Italy comes directly from the Lofoten islands(Norway). The story goes that in 1431 Pietro Querini and his crew were sailing North and after a journey that had seemed unfortunate from the beginning there was a shipwreck and the survivors found themselves in the Lofoten islands. They were rescued and taken care of, so they spent the colder months there and when the season allowed them to take sea again, they slowly returned to Venice and brought lots of dried stockfish, given to them because it was a durable food that would have lasted for the whole journey. The enthusiasm with which it was welcomed in Venice was due also to the fact that in that period in the different convents and monasteries in the region, people were eating too much meat and dried stockfish represented a perfect solution to reintroduce the habit of the venerdì di magro (light Friday).

In the osteria the waitress was very friendly and told us a bit about the story. Even if I am from Vicenza, I did not know so much about it....sometimes you feel like a tourist in your own city hehe
Hi, Sam! Your sublime videos, with so many lessons and stunning backdrops, light up my day and week! I can't be envious (because I consider envy as a desire to destroy the well-being and wealth of other people) I could be a bit jealous but as we are accompanying you, I'm more focused on the many valuable things we can learn and see on your trips! Take for granted that your videos arise our curiosity! Cheers, Sam!
Luis you are a legend! Your comments making example sentences with the language I taught really lights up my day!! Excellent examples. Be careful with the last one.. 'arouse' not 'arise' All the best!
@@PAPIEnglish Oh, thanks because I thought it was the past tense of "arise" 🤦♂️ and "arouse" in this case is a regular verb. 😁 This is a new lesson! Thanks, unless you told me, I wouldn't have realized it!
great video,sam,such a sublime city… I liked the last cut with you trying to pronounce osteria….it makes you more human seeing you fighting as well as we do learning english…and thank you for your great work!✌🏻tom
Thanks! 😃 yes I am always putting something extra at the end!! I am too a language learner and I think it is nice to share my doubts and troubles as well! All the best Tom!
sublime light up my day, arousing curiosity, backdrop, at a push, backdrop...Interesting vocabulary in context. If possible make at least 10 minutes videos. Many times we feel, they ended suddenly. Thank you Papi Engilsh.
@@PAPIEnglish yeah i really really really like it😆 Thanks for making such an awesome video, i shared this to my friends and they are really like it too ❤❤
I love this video. It's very useful for learning English by myself these social distancing days. I miss the world so much before Covid19 when having traveled wherever I wanted. I'd like to visit Vicenza, one day. Thank you😍
I'm from Vicenza. I didn't know you but I've seen this video on Facebook and I'm here commenting to tell you: congratulations! Very nice format. PS: I think you missed the opportunity to show the "Villa La Rotonda", probably the most famous and iconic monument of the city
@@PAPIEnglish Pinocchio, who lived in Italy, saw his nose growing everytime he told a lie. Even the white ones. I'll see you on the next video and will compare 😊
I suggest you visit India. If I am correct, you will enjoy India very well. Because you will find a lot of diversity. You will find here billionaires and beggars living in one locality. India's cultural diversity is amazing. You could find it only in some countries.
PAPI English travel videos light up my day 🤩 Great video again! I didn’t know Vicenza was so beautiful, I’ll definitely visit!
Yes!! All the cities in Italy are so nice haha! Definitely worth a visit! :)

Matteo knows the word - arouse. Hehehe. Especially in the presence of Papi-)

PS: I think you missed the opportunity to show the "Villa La Rotonda", probably the most famous and iconic monument of the city
Thank you so much!! I'm glad you enjoyed the video! Unfortunately Villa La Rotonda was closed because of Covid :/
@@PAPIEnglish oh that's a shame. It opened again recently. However, it's beautiful ( maybe even more ) also from a distance ahah.
Bogota!!!! You should go to Bogota!!!!!

Super!

Sam, did Matteo tell you that Vicenza has the best ice cream in the world? Soooo good. I feel envious... no, it really is jealously and so on
haha great example! Nooo he didn't tell me, I thought the best ice cream was in Trieste! haha
@@PAPIEnglish Trevisi is THE place. I am counting on you to show me around 😉
@@ruicoelho1962 of course! :)

Noialtri de Vicenza/Vicensa parlemo dialeto Veneto
You should come to Argentina!
I really really hope to go there soon!
Hii sir how are you ❤
I suggest you visit India. If I am correct, you will enjoy India very well. Because you will find a lot of diversity. You will find here billionaires and beggars living in one locality. India's cultural diversity is amazing. You could find it only in some countries.
I hope I can go soon! I went twice when I was a child but I would love to go back and make videos there!
Plz visit india
I hope to make videos in India one day soon! :)
