    Thanks for sharing your video! I'm claustrophobic too, and was wondering how it would be to walk up those narrow stairs!

    Not sure if I’ll make this climb but, I loved watching it thru the two of you.

    I enjoyed watching your video of the door almost climb. I just have a question about the 45 minute timeframe. Does that start the moment you start climbing the stairs at the entrance or is that for you to stroll around at the very top of the outer dome?

    That's a fun thing to do. There's a lot of history in the Domo made possible by Lorenzo Medici. I don't recall having a time limit at the top of the dome although that was quite a few years ago in 2007. It is a unique experience if you're willing to tackle the steps. My wife bought a bunch of those genuine fake watches on the street which she regreted when she had her luggage searched once in Rome and twice at Charles De Gaulle.

    I love seeing the extra scenes!!! However, a lot of the scenes are also in the Global Expats episodes, which makes it feel repetitive to watch them back to back. Do you plan to reduce the overlap in future episodes, or will the Micha channel be something we should save for later, to watch long after we've seen the Global Expats episodes, so we don't notice the repetition as much?

    • @michaworldwide
      @michaworldwide  Рік тому

      Thanks so much, I’m happy you enjoyed the bonus footage! 🤗 And the majority of my videos will be completely different than what we post on the Global Expats channel, but this video is just a special case of wanting to share a more simplified version of the long episode for those people who just want to see the experience of climbing to the top of both sites without all the history, ticket info, ect! All the videos I have coming up will be more day to day life in Italy, and a few fun things we get up to in Florence that we won’t be sharing on our main channel! 🇮🇹

      @@michaworldwide Thanks for the clarification! We *love* your content, both here and on the main channel. Part of the enormous charm of your channel(s) is your juxtaposition of serious educational content (like history, ticket prices, maps, and POV/establishing shots) and your own personal/goofy reactions to the places you're visiting, highlighting your endearing personalities. It's like you're alternating between being teachers and class clowns in the same episode! We love that mix! :)
