I have been working with children over 40 years and this I would like to tell you: today it is an exception to see a child happy und busy, smiling and content without a overbording piles of toys!! Luce always finds an occupation by imitating activities from adults ( wiping the walls, cleaning with a broom, bringing her chair….) she plays with sand, stones, household gadgets, loves the cats …. Luce is simply a wonderful child!!! Congratulation on how you raise your daughter! Also how you talk to her, repeating words in both languages, italian and english! You do such a good job as parents! Greetings from a 72 years old Swiss lady
Children need interaction with the parents. Today's parents are so busy---including with their social media, that they neglect their own children's welfare. Sara and Luca are doing a fantastic job.
I thought exactly that too....no truck load of toys, just doing what mum and dad do.
@mariannegottier we were the same with our son he had toys but he always was more interested in watching or helping what we were doing. Friends always complained and said he was spending too much time with us and not being a child. Yet every time we would visit their homes they were constantly complaining about all the kids stuff everywhere, and at the end of play resorted to yelling at their children to pick up their toys. Not one could see it was their own doing. And when they didn’t want them under their feet, the TV came on. It’s sad to see them now as adults struggling to deal with life’s pressure because they were never prepared or taught even the basics
@@9eyeswideopenthank you for your comment. You express it even better than I do, english is not my best foreign language… Children growing up with endless TV consumption have NOT a good development of the brain and are missing very important skills for their life ( like you said)! This generation will have big problems in achieving their adult tasks. Grettings for my heart-Soul! marianne

as a junk dealer most of my adult life .. I just love , love , love the curiosity shop you took us to .. one thing I love about your videos is that they are not staged and that you take us all to get a 'feel' for what Italy is like .. I am in love with the deep history and architecture .. the food and mostly the people .. thank you so much for bringing us on a European adventure every week .. xo from Canada
You both do lots in a week…thanks for sharing your lives ❤❤
😍😍😍
Such a beautiful family❤
What's the name of the second-hand shop? Or how to find it? I'm in Cefalu and would love to visit it.
I think they went to Centro Gamma in Palermo. We got some furniture there and they delivered to Caccamo (45 minutes away) for €40.
Luca! I love how you said it... "some little disasters can happen and it's just part of the game!" True word of wisdom!
❤
So true!!
You probably thought of it. Since the kitchen floor tiles are damaged from the glue. I would flip them over and keep the wall kitchen tiles. Instead of painting them.
I have had the same experience one day removing tiles and ... Oups ... let's say hello to my family sitting on the couch in the living room thanks to the hole in the wall !! The one doing nothing make no mistgake, do mistake and learn, that's it. Cheers from France. I enjoyed your video, you're so beautiful people ❤
I love this sweet hardworking family! Lucia is so content to be with her family all the time! She is blessed with this easy going mom and dad who include her in everything! Always smiling and curious! What a wonderful way to grow up!
"Everything is fixable"... I love your attitude. Keep your good cheer and all will be well,❤ Brava on your fabulous furniture!
This new adventure in Sicily appears be a healing and renewing life for all of you. Luce can go out into the street and safely discover new things. Luca’s eyes are bright and shining, showing that he’s back in his element again, and loving it. And Sara is “the glue” guiding things along. It’s lovely to see all of your family enjoying life. 😊
The reason Lucha is so beautiful, is because she's such a happy baby. That's because she knows she is loved.
She is a model of happiness that every baby should know.
As long as they are loved and wanted, they will naturally do the rest.
Do you hear me, America?
She is adorable
I totally agree - if children know they are loved by their parents, whatever age the 'children' are....this is such an important factor in their life...
I am in America & my parents were very loving very strict. So are all my family & friends parents & grandparents. You here us from America.
BEFORE YOU PUT EPOXY ON THE KITCHEN FLOOR...Buy some stain made for concrete/stone. You can't clean the kitchen floor because the discoloration is permanently inside the floor tile which is porous. You can stain over the discoloration. Replace one stain with a better stain. In the US we stain brick pavers and concrete all of the time. Pick a color similar to the original tile and experiment in a location that will be covered by cabinets or shelving. You can't stain the same tile more than once until it's dry and cured. After you have stained the individual tiles and allowed them to cure coat with epoxy.
By the way, eliminate the kitchen door and reframe the opening. It's just getting in the way. Now is the best time to do it.
After coming across your channel, for travel interests, I started to binge watch your last few years .I fell in love with your charismatic, warm, sincere great personalities. With great interest I watched the renovations, acquisitions of properties, the arrival of beautiful Luce and your ups and downs. Nothing can compare to your channel on UA-cam. You are hard working, interesting, smart, intelligent , warm people whose kind hearts comes through your beautiful faces. I have to add a note to Sarah just last week I was robbed at the airport arriving for a cruise, we were left with no money, credit cards, documents or passport, of course no cruise, but I remembered the episode when you were robbed in South America and how you coped....it gave me strength too...thank you and Happiness and Success in your lives love from Canada but in Italy for few months
The color of Luce’s hair is beautiful! And she is so smart, curious and helpful. Loved this episode with so many things happening. ✌️❤️🏠
What happened to the wall is not a disaster, just a small hiccup in your plans. I am loving your life in Sicily. Thank you for sharing your lives with us.
I just LOVE it when Luce wants to imitate you too. She's very aware of her surroundings and watches everything you do. I saw driving like Daddy, picking olives like everyone and ends the video just like both of you. Of course she is always smiling!
She is so precious and is going to be a very intelligent young lady.
Your kitchen table is beautiful. I've never seen one open up like that. Ingenious.
Luca, don't worry about the wall. In situations like that, my grandmother would say, "You have to break a few eggs to make an omelet."
What a privilege watching precious Luce grow and flourish. I love Sundays and your updates. It is looking beautiful. You guys are such hard workers and I know you will have success in all your projects. Thanks for letting us come along for the ride!
The velvet mustard chairs are perfecto! It would be so nice to see a tour or walk around your new village, the little streets and historic buildings look fascinating. Thanks for another awesome episode😊😊😊
Kitchen wall tiles are beautiful - please do not paint them - keep them as original. And your new furniture suits the house - great value too. Well done.
Great episode! The yellow velvet chairs are so gorgeous!!!! Luce was so cute pointing to those chairs and her little
plastic yellow chair. It will all come together!!!!
❤ thank you 👋🏻
Hello Beautiful Family, Luca, what about enlarging the entire bathroom? I don't know what room that's on the other side of the bathroom, but how about making a "toilet room" that expands with a bathtub and additional storage?
Don't be discouraged. You and your wife are so positive and amazing.
Luce sharing HER yellow chair against YOUR mustard yellow chair with all of us, was PERFECTION❤ The best style vloger on YT 😃
The furniture is perfect! I love that you picked to use the mustard color to pull from the living room floor for furniture; it is quite beautiful. I hope you can go back to the vintage market for light fixtures and more. What fun! And I love that Luce’ is loving all of the fresh fruits from your land.
Seeing her with her chair, I think the town is loving having her and the two of you in the aging community; more youth to sustain the village and bring it back to life. 🥰
Luce is so adorable. I look forward to these weekly vlogs just so I can see her little smiling face. She brings so much beauty and joy in such a scary world. Thank you for creating this content. God bless you and your family on your journey.
What beautiful furniture. That was a lovely place. It will be so homely when you furnish each room. We must not forget little Luce, we are all mesmerised by your beautiful daughter
Tip! If you put a slit in some tennis balls, and put one on each leg of Lucia’s chair it will move around and not scratch the floors.
Have a good week. Maureen.
Good morning! So much going on and all of it richly sprinkled with love and Luce’s wonderful smiles and giggles! It doesn’t get much better than that! Love all you are doing and each step shows your amazing foresight and vision. Well done beautiful people! 🤗👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💖👶🏼💖🙏🙏
Always a great day when I see your smiles!!! So awesome that you are showing Luce to care for the kitties - and her happiness when she is around them! Thank you for sharing your adventure! Ciao!
I can not believe how cheap your bargains were, specially that beautiful small seat wow! So much stuff there, you could spend all day there. It’s all so well made. The little accident is only minor❤️❤️❤️
What great finds of those furniture pieces! The bathroom floor came up really well. Can’t wait for next week.
Love how you call us "beautiful people". That was not a disaster, it was a small problem resulting in a learning opportunity.
When you remove bathroom fixtures you should stuff plastic garbage bags with rags inside into the drain holes so that you do not get sewer smell in the house or accidentally drop material into the drain pipe and cause a blockage.
Absolutely love you three.
Luce with those kitties 😻😺😻 is absolutely adorable! I felt sorry for Luca having the small accident with the new plaster. We have an old house too and realize these things happen. God bless you all with His love. My prayers continue for you as you work on all these projects.
❤
@@leaw IF....Luce pushes her chair (or anything) onto the baloney.... and climbs up on it.....
Baloney guards for children > Wire Mess....? This may be the greatest danger in the house.
Belated Happy Birthday, Luca! You are doing so well considering what you had gone through! Thank goodness for you and Sara! I am so very glad to see you both so happy, and Luce is a little angel! I love seeing her happy with the cats!🌟 Thank you for taking us to the huge used furniture store in Polermo, that was really beautiful to see, and you got some beautiful furniture there! 🌟
The kitchen floor didn’t come out how you may have liked, but I LOVE it!! I think the “old used look”…. Is perfect
Incredible furniture finds for your 1,000 year old home. Viewing and being there in real life would be heart ❤ 💙 💜 warming. You are on top of things that matter to you. Good on you 😊
What a wonderful life your little girl has. So much love in your family...it is so wonderful to see...truly! Thank you so much for sharing with the world. I would give you thousands of thumbs up if I could, one seems insignificant, but I do it in hopes it helps in some small way. Thank you dear ones!
Lucy is the star of the show. We’ve never seen such a happy little child!
Luce not Lucy
English equivelant
lucy is lucia then... not luce.
luce means light!@@user-pp2cg3iw5d
Hi, from BC, Canada.🥰😍🤩 Luca, I don't think you did anything wrong. Didn't look like you were hitting very hard. if you just tapped, it wouldn't have come off. Double bind. Floor and tiles look great. Sarah you are so wise knowing that a mistake is an opportunity to gather information and that without mistakes, one is not taking enough risks. Brava and bravo you two. The olive grove is wonderful. Love, love, love the furniture.
❤🙏🏻👋🏻🤗
Sara and Luca, how nice to hear you speaking Italien. Italien is not a language, it is music. And your English, with this wonderful italian accent. It is true, if you don‘t have an Italian in your country, you need to buye one. You are a beautiful familiy with Luce. Good luck and the best for you in everything you may do. Take care.❤
❤ What a cute divan! Yellow mustard was tops! Very nice dining set and breakfront! Although stressful, it's also amazing to get the second hand items at reasonable prices. They are all exquisite! ❤❤❤
I wouldn’t worry about small things like that. Floors collapsing would be a problem. That’s just a patch job. Probably won’t be the last one. FYI, you should have a wad of cloth shoved into the sewer stack hole there. Keeps the smell down and keeps debris from falling down. Also keeps the sewer gases from filling the house. You’re both doing a great job recovering the tiles on the floors and walls.
That market was our paradise.
😂😂😂
I really appreciate your love of old things --- the floors, the chairs, the olive trees. Sara, you seem to be living your best life. Brava!
The first thought that came to me when the accident happened with the hole, let's open the bathroom to this room and make a master bathroom 😊
It’s cool to hear you speak more Italian in this episode. And I like that you had those parts without narration…just seeing you pick the olives together in your grove. Btw, two of my brothers married two Italian sisters from Fuscaldo. I was the ring bearer at one of them…super important job!
I like it when they talk to each other in Italian and agree about the parts without narration.
The English is terribile
What a successful trip to Palermo, great finds, the pieces fit perfectly. Great update guys, I'm sure you'd be able to sell any empty houses in your town.👍❤
I love the way that Luce was comparing her little yellow chair to the ones you've just bought. She's so beautiful! 😚
All I can say is Luce is soooo adorable & your house is going to look amazing when you're finished.
You are making great progress. Love the furniture you bought. Don’t worry about breaking through the wall….it’s nothing in comparison to all you accomplished. Luce….so adorable!! The olives and figs…made my mouth water.
We really enjoy your videos! You face every challenge with honesty, positivity, and together. Thank you for sharing part of your life with all of us.
The bathroom floor looks like new. Well done. The furniture is great and the prices were also great. Slow and steady will get you there. Love from Canada
The furniture is beautiful...what a great find, can't wait to see the bathroom and kitchen done.
Luce is such a lovely happy baby. May she continue to be blessed.
I just love that little Luce. She makes me smile and laugh. You guys are doing a great job and your channel is growing so fast.
What a proud day picking your first olives!
Your daughter is such a happy beautiful child. She is living a good life. ❤️
I love your choices of furniture!!! It is so much fun to shop in second hand furniture and antique stores!
Just a thought, but maybe in order to add light to the bathrooms you could put a grow light for plants to simulate daylight and add a few small plants, that are up high, so they don’t interfere with the small floor space.
This journey of yours just gets more and more exciting, you are all a breath of fresh air and all things of hope in a world gone insane , thank you precious family ❤️
As always, I love your content and have never missed an episode. Frankly, when my kids were Luce's age I was lucky to function, but you two are renovating, harvesting, and scouring second-hand stores for furniture. While watching this episode my mind took me back several years ago to a video where you two, Trent and Allie, and Jordan and Kaylee were traveling in Central America. It seems like you took fresh authentic carbonara to the Nomadic Movement's bus where you all enjoyed a meal together. I guess that's not so rare, but I subscribe to all of your channels and you now have Luce, Leo, and Sadie. It would be nice to see you all reconnect and see how the next generation gets along. I think the children are all within a year of each other in age.
I'm so glad you got some furniture! Beautiful! Enjoy your week. I hope that the bathroom comes out wonderful too. Thank you! Bye... (from Sandi)
Hello from Kansas ❤please leave kitchen tiles! They still look so nice! It is so much fun to watch you guys fix up your new home! You are doing everything I have been dreaming about forever. I sure hope to see you playing cello again🎉
How fun🤗 I would have went crazy shopping in that furniture shop!!! You guys got some wonderful deals on that beautiful furniture that you found❤️
Luce is such a great little shopper! She’s such a little angel 😇
Those figs looked so tasty, mouth watering!
I am sorry that I forgot to wish Luca a happy birthday 🎂🎉🎈🎊 I consider it an honor that I share my birthday with the most handsome man on UA-cam. I just wish that I shared the same year!
May God continue to bless y’all and keep you in His loving care🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼
How perfectly sweet. During the opening intro Luce did her own intro saying this is mama and this is dada , she almost tipped her chair over and still did her intro , I love it! She will probably have her own UA-cam one day! I love the videos and I love where you live , your home is outstanding.
I am 77 years old and love shopping like this! And you got wonderful deals! Congratulations!
Those living room tiles look like million bucks . What a lovely & practical choice of furniture . Luce is like sunshine that brightens our Sundays . Blessings from North Carolina ❤️❤️
Love the furniture selections you made. As always, the cutest baby girl ever!
I think the tiles in the kitchen, the walls, look very nice and authentic😊
My childhood home in England had a table very similar to the one you just purchased. Our chairs were very formal with fabric seats as it was in our formal dining room. You definitely found some good buys.
The yellow velvet chairs are INCREDIBLY perfect/ beautiful for your home ( love how they match your tiles)…. Your entryway little couch is soooo perfect as well!
Let’s not forget your beautiful kitchen table ( free 6 chairs) and your china hutch!
I cannot believe that ALL fit in your van ( along with the 3 of you!)
Thank you for taking us all along with you to Palermo and to the furniture/flea market!
I cannot wait till next Sunday to see what your progress is!!!
Great video….ciao! Sherry💗
Italy is my favorite country!! History, art, architecture, food, chianti and you beautiful people…love from Mexico City🌹Pili 🙏🏻♥️
You had me very worried… talking about a disaster!!! I wouldn’t call a smallish hole in the wall a huge disaster!!! It is a more like a big boo-boo! Lol. A huge disaster would be the whole wall coming down! Luce always always makes me smile… what a beautiful and happy child she is! Love the new, old furniture lol. My dining room table opens up the same way as your kitchen table. It is great bcz you don’t have to store the leaf(s) elsewhere, they are always right there!
I love those used furniture markets! So much wood in one place. It would be a shame to get rid of it. No need to cut down more trees! Most of the baby boomers have downsized their homes so there is much to be found! Besides, they don’t make furniture nearly as well as they used to!
Thanks so much for sharing your life with us! You are a beautiful family with so much love❤️. Take care of each other!❤️🙏🏼🥰😎👋🏻from Ontario, Canada🇨🇦
I have embraced the phrase, "Mistakes come from inexperience and experience comes from mistakes." I loved your supportive responses to each other!!
Luce is growing so fast. Awwww. Thank you for another great video 🩷💜🇮🇹🇩🇪
🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️
Those look like great olives guys! And Luce is talking! 💛🏡👍😎🇺🇲
The hole through the wall gave you another idea/option for making the bathroom bigger, just move the wall of the bathroom into the closet and you have a bigger bathroom. ❤
What an exciting day buying furniture ! You got some beautiful pieces that were made to go into your house. Don’t stress over the wall…. It’s a learning experience… you have had so many successes so focus on those. Sending our love❤
Love the furniture you found. The kitchen table is so unique and well designed and the entrance chase lounger makes such a statement. It will also come in handy to sit on when taking off and putting on shoes if you ever adopt that tradition. Keeping the three of you in my prayers. May God continue to bless your journey. You are loved.
Amen
Luce is so sweet walking around with her chair. I love watching you build your new home. Xx
THE TILES ARE ALL SO BEAUTIFUL. I LOVE ALL OLD THINGS❤❤❤
Everything is fixable..well done Luca on the bathroom floor! Love the face Luce made when she didn't want to sit on that throne! Great furniture choices..well done! ❤️🍁
I love the furniture ❤ beautiful 🌻😘
Yes 💯
Thank you! 🤗 ❤️
Great furniture choices, the house is really coming together.
You are such a gorgeous family. Thank you for showing us the shops in Palermo and great finds with the furniture. The kitchen table is lovely and goes nice with the tiles. The chairs for the living room match the floor tiles so well. Luca dont worry about the accident with the wall, it happens and can be fixed. It looks like the plaster was put right over the back of the sink brace, which you wouldnt have known about. You did a great job with the floor I was stunned how well that came up. Dont worry if you need to take a break with filming with everything you have coming up. I love seeing you and your progress but not if it gets stressful for you. Take care x
The bathroom floor looks really nice now. Well done guys x
Congratulations 🎉🎉on your beautiful purchases absolutely stunning. ❤️❤️❤️❤️Home is where the heart is. Thank you for sharing both the good and bad times xx lots of love hugs
Oh… the baby girl is so pretty.❤
The furniture is so lovely and perfect!
The gold would be my choice too.
I am surprised the bathroom floor came out so beautiful. I really love it. Maybe you can keep it.
Thank you for taking us with you on your adventure.
God bless you beautiful loving family thank you!
You did very well getting your furniture for your home. You are lovely people also. Be blessed in all you do.
I enjoy seeing the beautiful scenery and progress on your house. It is becoming beautiful! And your daughter is beautiful and happy. I hope someone has the kitties spayed and neutered!
Pietro to the rescue! It's good you knew that calling a skilled tradesman would be the best (easiest, fastest) solution to your disaster. I loved to watch you browsing Palermo's winter market. My husband, like Luca, thinks the tool section is a "toy" section.
I love your kitchen table, my mother and father had a more recent build, but it extended just as yours does. My daughter now has it in her home! It’s only 100 years old though. Wonderful to be able to pass on to next generations. So many things from the past are so beautiful and should be used.
You both possess great parenting skills….your daughter is going to be an exceptional human being…God Bless. I love your videos, thank you for the fun and the adventures….❤
The vintage market was amazing lots to see. I absolutely love the furniture you found. Its all coming together just excited for you
Such a lovely video, so sweet to see you all picking the olives and then shopping together. All the chairs and the sofa were great finds. Good to see Luce looking after her own chair!
Have a great week ahead!
You didn't have a disaster, you had a discovery!👍❤️
Mistakes happen. Oh dear! Not the end of the world 😊😊😊. It can be fixed. Luce is such a beautiful little girl, That smile would melt the most hardened heart.
Lovely trees bearing lovely gifts. Also lovely furniture.
Lucce é a bebê mais encantadora da Sicília. A mobília é maravilhosa, tudo de muito bom gosto. Parabéns ao lindo casal e filhinha.❤
Wow today we had this in church so fitting to your story as in the joy too when there is harvest!
Hab 3:17-18 ISV 17 Even though the fig tree does not blossom, and there are no grapes on the vines; even if the olive harvest fails, and the fields produce nothing edible; even if the flock is snatched from the sheepfold, and there is no herd in the stalls- 18 as for me, I will rejoice in the LORD. I will find my joy in the God who delivers me.
Also wanted to say you make a good team 😊 and your daughter's outfits are just beautiful ❤
Still watching! You are right though, life is a journey from which we learn. Ciao for now ❤
Luce is supervising the kitten soo funny and cute 😂. Yes i think yellow sofa or couch will stand out in your living room beautifully .👍
Love your journey to the antique shop!
You will finally manage to rejuvenate your town❤
Good afternoon you three, from Derbyshire England 😍 😍😍🥰
Hello there!❤️❤️❤️
I love all the pieces you have picked out…. You guys are such hard workers no doubt about it, plus taking care of that beautiful baby girl ❤
Love you guys. The house is going to be really beautiful. Hard work yes, but at the end, so rewarding. Wear a dust mask when you work so you don’t breathe in the construction dust, it’s unhealthy, “white lung disease.” The property with the water and hills, olive groves and plantings is stunning. I’m surprised more people from the States aren’t flocking there to buy those One Euro houses. You bought some lovely pieces at the shop. Can’t wait to see how it all comes together. When the house is done you must have another baby. Lucia is so smart and adorable, you make wonderful children, we need another one for her. She has such a great personality. God bless the three of you and your home.
