i can not tell you how weird it is for me to see you geek about all the places that are so familiar and just scream home to me, like i've lived in Rome for my whole life, that's my hometown, i have family in naples and have been to the amalfi coast thousand times but seeing you so genuinely excited made me appreciate those places and this culture and these people so much more ahhh we're always so accustomed to our homes that we rarely see all the beauty around us so yeah, taking my time to appreciate how lucky i got to be able to stroll here whenever i want and see the beauty of this country and just take it for granted
Oh! Those images of Pompei, Vesuvius and the birds chirping at the cottage 🤩 Thank you for taking us with you. Toujours agréable entendre quelques mots de français. Ciao Bella! 🐐
I loved to see your way of experiencing Italy, especially Rome. The fact that you skipped the vatican museum to go biking.....I wish more people would travel like you instead of only going to the same 5-10 most looked for stops. Looks like you got a really real, historical and well thought through experience in Italy. So happy for you ❤
Gosh Emma you need to come to Argentina, a short drive out of any city except for Buenos Aires and you have nature everywhere and such different terraines and climates too! 😊
i think i am commenting for the very first time over any of your videos, i have always been a silent visitor of yours but i FINALLY finally watched your travel vlog of italy and rome and now i am going to start this one and i should not contain myself anymore and should say this, i am really REALLY in love with your videography and with your voice and overall, yours is my THE COMFORT CHANNEL EVER!!
I completely understand what you were saying about speaking/practicing the different language. I studied for 4 months in The Netherlands, and most people would recognize right away that I wasn't a native Dutch speaker, so they'd switch to English. It made me so happy whenever someone humored me and continued to speak Dutch.
Merry Christmas, Emma, to you and your family. Thank you for this wonderful video and all of them you've made for us this year. Peace and good will to everyone here. "Ciao."
What an amazing travel vlog Emma! Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with us. Please film some snow for us Southerners when you get a chance.
I’ve been watching your videos religiously for like four years and now you literally filmed as you were driving past my little hometown, I could cry! Hope you had a great time!
Living in Italy, sometimes I tend to give for granted the beautiful places we have here and watching you react like that, watching your emotions, has made me fall in love again with my country. Hope you'll have the chance to travel back to Europe in the future!❤
I live near Salerno and I’m glad you enjoyed the Amalfi Coast! It’s such a gorgeous place and I feel extremely lucky to live here. Hope you can come back soon (even if I can imagine how much you had to spend just to fly from Canada to Europe). ❤
I know I’ll never get to travel to my dream places so thank you for bringing me (and all of us) along with you. I feel like I got a little time in Italy thanks to you. What an amazing experience, I’m SO happy for you❤
I saved this video for watching today before work. What can I say. I felt so much like being on holidays, super relaxed, absolutely absorbed. I've never been to those places and completely forgot everything around me while watching....which made me be late for work 😅 well worth it! Thanks for sharing your trip with us!
Italy has its hilly and mountainous regions too. Also a precious memory for me was sitting and chatting with an elderly Italian lady on the steps of the hospital/nursing home where she was staying. She was speaking in her Venetian dialect so it was hard to understand everything. On saying goodbye she gave me some cake appropriate for that time of year apologising because she hadn't a plastic bag to put it in.
Once again, thank you so much for sharing your beautiful experiences in Pompei, Vesuvius . Certainly seeing a different side of Italy. Seeing you cry in Pompei, was very touching.
I'm so glad you had a wonderful time in Italy!!! The places you stayed at were so stunning. 😍I'm from Germany and despite the way smaller distance, compared to your distance from Canada, I've never been there. Your vlogs made me want to go there even more.
After all the hustle with school demands, it's finally our Christmas vacation. And, Emma, this vlog makes me feel like I've traveled abroad! Thank you 😻
Where the ruins have more stories than bedtime tales, and the coastal views are so breathtaking, even the mermaids are considering a vacation! I just suddenly missed the time when I was there to film one of our TV show episode.
Amalfi coast is so beautiful. I remember while driving along the coast road once i encountered a bus coming from the other direction. It was a very curvy and small part of the road and there was not enough room for passing each other. I was on the rocky side of the road therefore i had to set back the car until there was a space wide enough for the bus to pass. I was in a rental car and was not so familiar with it and its measurements so I was sweating blood and water during this interaction. Will never forget it in my whole life.😂 But still Amalfi coast is definitely worth everything.💛
thank you so much Emma, I really enjoyed this vlog!! I also partially did the same visits to Rome / Naples / Pompeii last summer and you are definitely so so lucky to be there during off peak season, especially in Rome where literally there were huge crowds everywhere, it was probably 100x noisier and you have to line up for everything. The vatican museum /dome / sistine chapel are definitely worth the visit though, maybe next time :)
i’m so so happy you had a good time in italy emma 🥹🫶🏽 happy for you to have had the opportunity to see the stuff you’re passionate about! also don’t be too hard on yourself with your italian 😭 you also have to think about the fact that most people talk in dialect 24/7 so they know that for non italian people it’s gonna be harder for them to understand (even i struggle sometimes and i’ve been born and raised here loll) you touched on a very important point in your video, the pollution in here it’s literally so bad so so badddd, they actually started to say that we’re one of the most polluted countries in the world 😭💔 it’s so sad :( the wilderness is definitely nothing compared to Canada for sureee, whenever you show the scenery there, the forests and all, i’m so in awe. anyway i’m so happy for you 🫶🏽
I loved this so much. You really gave us a taste of these places. Be sure to watch Goodbye Mr Chips with Petula Clark and Peter O’Toole. Part of the movie is set at Pompeii. It’s a wonderful film.
Good job you weren't in Venice in the summer, you can cut the air quality with a knife. Nice to see you had good weather this late in the year. Enjoyed your travel log, brought back a few memories. If you want wilderness try northern Scandinavia, quite beautiful.
Thank you for this one! I have family in altavilla silentina, which is very close to trecase. I haven’t been there in quite a long while and seeing the clips was really great! How did you like driving there? I pretty much learned driving there and was terrified the first few days, haha! I have to go there again some time soon!
Dear Emma, I am your fan from Ukraine and I sincerely thank you for your work. I lecture on culture/literature at the Kyiv National Library, and am currently working on a project on English literature, is it possible to interview you? -Yours Dan
Seeing Emma nerd out about ancient Rome while on site in Italy is incredibly heartwarming 😊

Awe thank you! Will do - we just got some today🥰
Nothing like an Emmie notification after minutes of mindless insta scrolling. Never clicked so fast❤❤
❤❤
I’ve been watching your videos religiously for like four years and now you literally filmed as you were driving past my little hometown, I could cry! Hope you had a great time!
Oh! Emma, i loved the vlog! Pompeii is really impressive and the Amalfi coast is gorgeous! So happy you're back and reunited with Calcifer! 😻❤️❤️❤️

I think that Magic Treehouse book is also how I first learned about Pompeii ☺️
I love the closing remarks of this video!
Travel, expands the soul!

Seeing you in such gorgeous landscapes in Italy is so, so satisfying.

She's making me miss hiking (and I'm in Canada in December😂). Thanks for vlogging during your trip and sharing it with us 🥰
Omg please share more of your journals!! Your drawings are so cute ✨✨
Where the ruins have more stories than bedtime tales, and the coastal views are so breathtaking, even the mermaids are considering a vacation! I just suddenly missed the time when I was there to film one of our TV show episode.
I am so excited for you! I got emotional with you at Pompeii... Thank you for sharing with us.

Magical! Thank for sharing Italy with us! Amazing!
So amazing!! It's surreal studying something and then getting to see it in person. I did that with Vienna. :D
Thank you for taking us along with you!

It's funny, when I go to Italy I never think to hike up a mountain but it looks beautiful!
i looooveeee ur travel vlogs!!!
Everywhere Looks So Lovely, Especially the Amalfi Coast and Vallei dei Mullini😃🌳🌳🌳🌊
Looks like it was amazing. Pity you got sick, but glad you were still able to see most of it.
Next you need to come to Ireland! 😊
Had a really good time!! And omg yes I would love to come to Ireland!☺️
@@emmiereads Plenty to see and do. If you're ever coming to Ireland, September and May are the nicest months to sightsee in.
So happy for youuu ❤ thanks for sharing!!!
I love Italy with my whole life I never visited the Pompeii’s but I go for a island Ischia, I highly recommend this
So glad you liked Italy ❤
Come to Romania for the real wilderness! 🥲 Lovely vlog!
Thank you for this one! I have family in altavilla silentina, which is very close to trecase. I haven’t been there in quite a long while and seeing the clips was really great! How did you like driving there? I pretty much learned driving there and was terrified the first few days, haha! I have to go there again some time soon!
I go to Italy every day, Pompeii is one of my dreams to go
Hey Emma! You need to read "Pompeii" by Robert Harris, great book ❤
The sick throat could also be allergic to the pollen on the west italian coast?
Your trip was sooooo you. I’m so so so happy for you.
Did you have any complications with food since the traditional diet in Italy tends to be so meat and cheese heavy?
Im living vicariously through you
Man. In Italy even the stray animals eat pasta. That's amusing.
Wonderful video. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Very spectacular indeed !!!
Living my dream life. Enjoy your strong passport moment
Yayyy ✨
Speaking of eruptions did you see there’s volcanic eruptions in Iceland??
🌅🙋♀️😊😃Thank You So Much for Posting This😊
air pollution really messes people up - I have friends who have been to London and came back with a *black* cough
❤❤❤❤
Please make a book vlog speaking only in French/Italian!! 🤩
💖💖
Outstanding 👍👍
You make me want to go to Canada. I would love the cities to be separated by wilderness. Nature is in a very poor state in The Netherlands 😢
zamzam water
Who did you go with?
Goethe is said to have had the highest IQ of any person who ever lived.
dont you guys use whatsapp in Canada? 🤔😃
You could have just been feeling sick because you were in a new location for a while with allergens unfamiliar to your body.
Dear Emma, I am your fan from Ukraine and I sincerely thank you for your work. I lecture on culture/literature at the Kyiv National Library, and am currently working on a project on English literature, is it possible to interview you?

How much money do you need to have to make this kind of trip
Italy is interesting, but what we really want is our erudite and beautiful literary expert chatting into the camera about here latest thoughts.
Such lovely spots in Italy that the country has to offer. I e always wanted to check out the Catacombs 🪦☠️👻☕📚🇭🇺🍕🍝🍷
❤❤❤❤
