- In this video, I reflect on starting this channel and connecting with all of you. Then we take a little trip to Como in full Christmas spirit. I also share a bit of the magic of "panettone", the traditional sweet bread that is a must during the holidays.
Thank you for being here and for making this trip so special. I wish you and your loved ones a peaceful and happy 2025! 🎄✨
Let me know what you think in the comments: I love hearing your opinions. 💬
Some useful information about the video:
The pastry shop in Como is Pasticceria Martesana. They have several locations in Milan and one in Como. It’s one of the best pastry shops in Italy.
The teas purchased from Peter's TeaHouse are:
Pandoro Black Tea - Black tea (52.5%), candied pineapple pieces (pineapple, sugar), candied papaya pieces (papaya, sugar), raisins, flavors, orange peel, lemon peel, vanilla pieces.
Citrus Breeze - Black tea, lemon peel, natural flavor, dried orange pulp, safflower, lemon myrtle.
Buon Natale Black Tea - A blend of black teas from Ceylon and China, flavor, cornflower petals.
We bought the artisanal panettone from Pasticceria Comi in Missaglia.

I have added some useful information about where we shopped and the types of tea we purchased in the description.
A friend of mine who is Irish and loves Italy, she always talks good about Italy. Influence of her, I started to intreated in Italy as well and just saw your post and started to watch now. :)
Welcome to my channel, and thank you for your comment! I hope you’ll enjoy the simple moments I share from this small town in northern Italy. I’m not sure if you’re Irish too like your friend, but both Ms. Z and I are very fascinated by Ireland. We hope to visit it one day. As for Italy, it truly is a place with so many diverse aspects, with each region having its own unique characteristics. I hope you’ll have the chance to visit it someday. Wishing you and your loved ones a happy 2024!
Always a delight to spend 10 minutes or so with you as you show us the beauty in your corner of Italy. Thank you for the obvious effort you put into making these videos. I especially enjoy the peaceful music you select to accompany the video footage. Happy New Year!
Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment! I'm glad you enjoy my storytelling about these places. In turn, I’m grateful to the musicians whose instruments create the perfect soundtracks to accompany my images. 😊
Wishing you and your loved ones a 2025 full of serenity and wonderful moments!

Thank you so much for your kind and heartfelt words! It means a lot to know that my videos brought a little brightness to your year. I’m grateful to have you following along in 2025. Wishing you a wonderful and peaceful year ahead! 🌟
Thank you for sharing a part of your life with us, looking forward to watching more wonderful vlog from you. I wish you and your wife a peaceful and healthy 2025!
Thank you for appreciating my stories of a simple yet deeply lived life. I hope you'll enjoy the upcoming ones as well. Wishing you and your loved ones a serene and beautiful 2025!
I enjoyed the trip to Como a lot. It’s nice to travel from my sofa to such nice places! Thanks for sharing the photos of you as a child. How sweet!
My favorite scene was where your wife cuts and serves the Panettone so softly and elegantly, and you have it with tea. Perfection of ambiance through your expert photography!
Happy new year, wishing you, your wife, and channel an amazing year ahead.
Hi Introvert, the places around here are very beautiful, and it doesn’t take long to reach them. I’m sure that sooner or later, you’ll want to visit this area, just as Ms. Z and I would love to visit yours. In February, my son will be traveling to Norway. I know they’ll arrive in Tromsø and then head to some remote place.
I love those photos too; they’re so heartwarming.
Ms. Z brings sweetness and elegance to everything she does.
Wishing you, Mochi, and Mr. J a fantastic and peaceful 2025! 😊
@@fifthfloorgarden How exciting that your son will travel to northern Norway! You know, to us southeners, northern Norway is almost like a different world. Exotic even for us. Hope he will have a fun and safe trip!
I always look forward to your lovely videos with the scenery and other snippets of your life and Como looks beautiful. I have a weakness for tea shops here in Australia and always have trouble not coming home with too many varieties of tea! I hope you and your family had a lovely Christmas and best wishes for the new year.
Thank you so much for being such an attentive viewer. Ms. Z has the same problem as you when she steps into a tea shop.
Wishing you and your loved ones a fantastic 2025!
@ thank you 😊
Thank you for all of the beautiful videos you have put out this year. I loved your trip to Como and the peek inside the shops. Wishing you and your family a very happy and healthy 2025 🎉
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm thrilled you enjoyed the trip to Como, it was such a lovely experience to share. Wishing you and your loved ones a joyful and healthy 2025 as well! 🎉✨
Brave to be seen. You might get used to it. Lovely nature video. Thank you for sharing your part of the world.
Thank you so much for your kind words and encouragement! I’m glad you enjoyed the video and the glimpse into my little corner of the world. Wishing you a peaceful and joyful 2025!
Hi! What delicious sweet delights in that pastry shop. And also your tea time with tea and panettone is very inviting. The photos of you as a child are very beautiful. You were a very tender and sweet child.
Yes, there was no way Ms. Z would have missed the chance to try something from that pastry shop! Tasting the artisanal panettone and the tea we bought in Como was such an enjoyable moment. I also really like those photos, they capture a child open to the future, not knowing what to expect. 😊 Wishing you and your loved ones a wonderful 2025! 🎉✨
From here in Tokyo, happy holidays from me and my husband - we really enjoy your beautiful garden and all the nature you share with us. Thank you so much, you make our life cheerful. We're looking forward to following your apartment upgrade journey!! 😊
How wonderful to hear from you all the way from Tokyo! It’s so exciting to see that the simple things I share in my vlog can spark interest and joy in places so far away in distance and culture. I hope to at least start making some changes to my apartment this year. Wishing you and your husband a fantastic 2025!
Merci pour cette jolie vidéo 🥰 Bonne année !
Merci beaucoup pour votre gentil commentaire ! 😊 Je vous souhaite une merveilleuse année 2025, pleine de joie et de sérénité !
Guardo sempre volentieri i suoi video ,anche a me piacciono i boschi. Da poche settimane mio marito è andato in pensione e vogliamo goderci un po' la vita .buon anno.
Grazie Lara, sicuramente avrete più tempo per dedicarvi alle vostre passioni, e anche per scoprire posti nuovi da visitare magari non lontano da casa. In che zona state? Grazie ancora per aver apprezzato i miei video. Vi auguro un splendido 2025!
@fifthfloorgarden abito in un paesino della bassa Modenese, non c'è tanto ma è tranquillo 😃
Molto bello, ne avete di posti da visitare da quelle parti, e c'è il delta del Po e il mare a poca distanza.
Happy 2025! This year, I’m making the transition to retirement and I need to find out what I’d like to do with myself.
Happy 2025! 🎉 That sounds like a big and exciting transition. Retirement is such a great opportunity to explore new passions or rediscover old ones.
@@fifthfloorgarden yes, that's right. Hopefully I will figure it out, but if not, it is fine to potter around.
Luv the pace and simplicity of your channel. So calming. Just what we need for 2025🕊️ Looking forward to the renovation. ❤🏡
Thank you so much for your kind words! 😊 I'm really glad the pace and simplicity resonate with you. Wishing you a serene and beautiful 2025!
Happy New Year 🎉
Thank you, Vicky! I wish you and your loved ones a happy 2025!
Hi! Seems you had a good time in Como with all those delicious pastries, is it possible you chose one from Sicily?
I'm looking forward to watching your new content in 2025 ( I love house renovations!)
Vi auguro un gioioso 2025 pieno di cose belle!
P.s. the picture of you as a child we're adorable!
Yes, we went to Como to buy some tea, but when we saw the Martesana pastry shop, we just couldn’t resist going in. They’re always ranked among the top 30 pastry shops in Italy. As for the Sicilian pastry, I’m not sure, Ms. Z tells me one of them was from Puglia.
I hope to start the home renovation projects I have in mind soon. I really like those photos too. 😊 Thank you for your encouraging comment, e auguro anche a te e ai toui cari un magnifico 2025! 🎉✨
@fifthfloorgarden I asked because I ate some of them on the 26th and were Sicilian pastries 😅 they looked similar!
Which kind of tea did you buy?
Enjoy the new year! I will wait for the new videos! A presto 😊
The Sicilian pastry is famous, especially the one from the Modica area. As for the teas purchased, I’ve just added them to the description.
