- We picked a random name out of a hat and just went there! And it was AMAZING!
Hey guys! We hope you enjoy today's vlog. It's a little bit different, but we were really craving for an adventure... and we got one!
We went on a mission to find out if everywhere in Italy is beautiful... and we found some answers 😂
Thanks so much for watching and we will see you next Saturday from Napoli!

Thanks so much for watching guys! Hope you enjoyed this video, even though is a little bit different ❤ See you next week from Napoli!
There is only one place in the world where everyday life is so completely reflected in the sublime, in a wonderful mix of nature and culture........it is Tuscany.
Marie-Henri Beyle, Stendhal
Ciao, ho la fortuna di poter girare il mondo, l ultimo mese l ho passato in sud America, tra paesaggi naturali da mozzare il fiato! Non potrei più vivere senza fare nuove scoperte e vivere nuove culture! Ma ogni volta che torno in Italia ringrazio Dio di avermi fatto nascere in Italia, più viaggio e più mi rendo conto che in un mondo che è già il paradiso noi Italiani viviamo nel punto massimo della sua espressione!
Mi sembra che molti italiani non sanno questa verità! Ovviamente Italia non è perfetta...ma nessun paese lo è
Concordo perfettamente con te, e come non potrei esserlo.
Small hint to get rid of the indoor flickering in videos: try to set your camera for 50 frames/sec instead of 60. Electricity has 50 Hz frequency in most of Europe, so house lighbulbs go with the same flickering rate.
Thank you so much for taking the time to letting us know about this!! I've tried changing every single setting to try to get rid of this and it never crossed my mind that the 60 fps could be the problem!! Thank you so much 🙏🏼
We have the best memories from this random little trip ❤
TUTTA l' Italia Centrale è così!
Great video. Great concept to pick a random spot. Great style shift. I love Italy and I’m hooked on this series.
Thanks so much for watching! We really needed this little adventure ❤️ And the series just keeps getting better and better as we head south 😉
Loved this video! The intentionality behind your shots, visiting quaint small towns in Tuscany, and enjoying simple pleasures. Looking forward to learning about your secret project!😄👏🏽
Awww thanks so much! ❤️ This little adventure was exactly what we needed. And yes, we can't wait to share our secret project very soon! Thanks for following along... here and on IG/Newsletter 🌟 Big hugs from us!
Hello friends, Italy looks amazing. I may have to put it on my list. As an aside, look at your channel! Almost 25k subs👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I’m so proud of you for sticking it out through the early years. Congratulations friends. Stay safe, be well✌🏻🤙🏻🙏
Hi ❤️ We love seeing your comments when we're about to hit a new milestone, seriously 😎 Thank you so much for sticking around with us, and for supporting our little channel for such a long time. It's very special. We truly hope to meet you in person somewhere in the world one day soon 😇 Have a great weekend!
Montepulchiano is one of the places we spent on our honeymoon!! I may have teared up a little when I saw you there.❤ We woke up to a parade when we stayed there, truly amazing.
Awwww ❤️ Montepulciano is so magical and romantic! Love reading these little stories 😊 Thanks so much for sharing!
nice to see,people who appreciate the hills where I was born and raised,special places full of peace and harmony.
It is an amazing place! We hope to go back and spend more time there - so genuine and relaxed 🙌
We definitely have to visit a random place on our next trip - such a fun way to be spontaneous while traveling 🙌
La lotteria nella scelta della località mi è piaciuta, spero che sia vera. Soprattutto nel centro Italia scegliere a caso può essere una grande sorpresa che riserva luoghi fantastici, meno costosi, e affascinanti
I found you guys when planning a return trip to Cozumel with the intention to eat our way around the little island - your food tour video, then the beach recs, really served us well. Then, a year later, when daydreaming about an upcoming trip to Italy... I stumbled upon your videos again and it felt just like meeting old friends fortuitously. You seem so comfortable with one another, and are so generous and genuine with the viewers, "spending my time with you" feels like an extra cozy way to daydream about hitting the road again soon! It's a definite follow from me ❤
Reading this makes us so happy! Thank you for the kind words. How awesome that you went to Cozumel. That little island is one of our favorite places in all of Mexico! And welcome to the Italy travel series. We still have a bunch of videos to share and we hope they help you plan your upcoming trip. Italy is a dream 😍 Happy travel planning Marie ✈️ And sincerely thank you for spending your time with us 💕
Yes. Any place in Italy is a real wonder. And especially Tuscany with the splendid Florence which for me is the most beautiful and impressive city in Europe, forever in my heart. A good friend of mine said very nicely that "when a wall collapses in Italy, unfortunately a piece of history and art is ruined". I am so glad for you that you chose those fabulous places as your travel destination.
I really loved this video ! Such a genuine experince and your italian is getting better and better ! And thanks again for the postcard 🥰🥰
Thank you for watching ❤️
Very new to your channel - wish I found you earlier🤩🤩 What a great idea to raffle the towns!! It looked like a beautiful town - and WOW, what a fabulous Air BNB! Glad you managed to get some rest.
Hi Cheryl! Thanks so much for being here. Happy to hear you're liking the videos ❤️ Italy is so beautiful. We had a great time 😊
I agree with your decision: well done.
I'm Italian and I suggest to everybody the strangers who wants to visit Italy to forget Florence, Venice, Rome, Naples, MIlan and so on and visiting instead all the small town aroud the biggest.
Probably you will discover the real Italy and the real Italianity.
Thank you! I do understand the appeal of the iconic destinations - especially for people visiting the first time. But I also agree people would probably have a better time in the other places. We really loved Napoli, though!
I think everyone's travel experience is their own. If you land in Italy for the first time and you're bound to your itinerary because you; only have 10-14 days; you're taking trains everywhere jet lagged, over packed, stressed because you made a point to NOT to order a cappuccino in the afternoon so you ordered an "expresso " Dang now I look like a tourist! Well at least I pronounced the 'e' in gracie. What are all these tourist doing here anyway? This is MY Rome holiday! You know, running around Florence, Venice, Rome, Naples, MIlan for your first trip isn't so bad. ( Personally, I surely wouldn't visit all those cities in a week or so) Now, you can go home, regroup and come back again. Rent a car and visit all the small towns you want. And as you stated, park on the outskirts of a large city and take a train to the center...Stay in an Agriturismo, or just get lost. More time spent in any country, more deeper your cultural experience will be. Even if it takes a few trips! BTW, where in Italy to you live Andrea?
You are right. Obviously my suggestion was for " a second time in Italy" and for travelers and not tourists. It's normal for a tourist first visit the most iconic towns in Italy that, ufortunally, due to the tourism itself, are becaming a stereotyped model of italian style. But the real italian life is far from the big actractives. Also the italian people hospitality is more genuine far from the tourist path. This does not mean that the greatest charm rightly goes to the historic cities.
I was born 70 year ago and I live in Ferrara: a small town 50km to north of Bologna. The medieval kingdom of the Estense family.
I traveled a lot in my life for business, I was an engineer, and due of that I ever staied quite far from the big cities...discovering the real essence of the countries.
Have a nice day
Vorrei visitare Abruzzo questo autunno. Sono già stato a Roma, Firenze, Milano, Vicenza, Bologna, Sorrento, Catania, Siracusa. Anche Cosenza, che mi é piaciuto molto, perché non è turistico. Penso che anche l'Abruzzo sia così.
Hi. Great video. Thank you.
Thank you for watching Hyde 😊
Such a beautiful vlog, plus you were watching one of my favourite UA-camrs. Thank you for all the hard work that goes into your vlogs.
We have the same taste on YT 😎 Thanks so much for watching and supporting our little channel. We really appreciate it so much ❤️
Loved the video. Sometimes something unplanned can turn out to be amazing. This video was done like that. I see how much you guys have improved in your presentation. Keep up the great work. ❤👍🏼
Thanks so much Mario! Happy to hear you enjoyed the video, thank you for being here ❤️ We really loved this little spontaneous adventure 😊 We will try something like this again for sure! Big hugs from Mexico!
Thinking about going to Mexico long term. Good idea?@@waysoftheworld_
Excellent. We travel to Italy every year for a couple of months. We live in Florence and travel to many different places. Thanks to you, we will visit Sina Lunga. Grazia mele.
That's awesome! How nice to spend some months in Italy every year 🙌 also take a look at Montepulciano if you haven't already been. Grazie!
That's amazing, I'm from Siena (very near to Sinalunga) and I work with Italian trains so I do the route to Sinalunga many times every week.
And right now in in the USA visiting relatives in Boca Raton (FL) how small is the world 😅
hahaha what? That's amazing. What a small world indeed ☺️ We almost added Siena to the list but we weren't supposed to add any towns we were familiar with (and we know Siena is gorgeous!). Anyways, have fun in Boca. Enjoy the beach, go to Deerfield Beach and check out a place called Charmed City Burgers if you're into food like that. It's one of our favorite spots. Oh and of course check out Delray Beach. We love that area! Enjoy :)
Congratulations, you are two beautiful and nice people, I wish you much happiness, and many more journeys together.
Amen to that! Same to you 💛 Thank you! 😊
You guys are amazing!! And this is insane!😃
Haha yea it was great! What's up Ali??? It's Gordon - hope you and the fam are doing well! 😎
Love your vlogs thanks for sharing💚👍
Thank YOU for watching! ❤️
It's incredible you went to Sinalunga, I live nearby there and the fact that you went there leaves me speachless
Haha fate brought us to your part of the world. You live in a beautiful area that left us speechless!
We’ve been invited to a July 2025 destination wedding to a villa outside Sinalunga so when I stumbled on this video, I fell in love with your videos. I’ve been binging all afternoon. You guys are so cute together. We are not international travelers and not at all comfortable with mass transit. I learned so much about AirBNB and being spontaneous in Italy. I’ll be checking out more videos.
Hi Laurie! I think you wedding host is Mary? She asked us about transportation and I think it was for you 😂 So, here's our answer: Our host offered to drive us to Montepulciano and we took the school bus on the way back to Sinalunga. It was a fun experience, but then you're tied to the bus schedule. If you do want to make the trip to Montepulciano, it's better to rent a car in advance.To keep in mind though; I don't think there are car rental agencies in Sinalunga. Enjoy. This area of Italy is breathtaking!!
One side of my family left from that exact town in 1905. I will go there this year.
Lucky you! You will have a great time 😎
👏👏👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤❤❤....grazie per aver visitato e apprezzato la mia bella Italia!
Hiii from Grosseto Tuscany!!!! Ciaooo❤❤🇮🇹
Part of The Twilight's saga was filmed in Montepulciano (new moon)
Oh, cool! It's definitely a beautiful spot 🧛🏻♂️
@@waysoftheworld_ yes the main piazza
@barbarasestak9085
Full explanation/fun fact: it should have been Volterra (as in the books), but the author never seen volterra, not even in Google maps because she described in high detail a main square that doesn't look like the one in volterra at all (plus a non existing fointain). That's why in the movies the shot where they reach the town are from actual Volterra but then the shots in the square are in montepulciano
How beautiful!
I know! These places were a dream ❤️
It is the lesser known places that are most beautiful where you experience the real Italian life
I agree that these lesser known places are a must visit. They can be combined with the more popular places... Italy's iconic spots are on so many people's bucket lists.
Hello, great video. What time of year was this? Do you know what this area is like in early november
We were there in mid October. I think we were pretty lucky with warmish weather... early November has a chance of being rainy and even quieter.
👍👍🙏🙏😀😀
🙏🏼❤️
Great little video. My daughter is getting married in a vlla outside of Sinalunga in May of 2025. Can you tell me how you got from Sinalunga to Montepulciano? Did you rent a car, Uber or did your host drive you? We will have guest wanting to make the same trip and not sure if they need to rent a car? Thanks!!!
Hi Mary :) Congrats on the wedding! This area is STUNNING! This is funny. Is your wedding guest Laurie? She also left a comment asking LOL - Anyway... Our host offered to drive us and we took the school bus on the way back to Sinalunga. It was a fun experience, but then you're tied to the bus schedule. I think it's better if she rents a car. To keep in mind though; I don't think there are car rental agencies in Sinalunga. Good luck with everything 🩵
@@waysoftheworld_ Ha! No, Laurie is not one of our guest, but I know the villa we are renting for the wedding seems VERY popular. So regarding getting around the area, that is what we thought, that you really need a car, and that you can't rent one in Sinalunga. Thank you SO much for responding and I wish you safe and wonderful travels!.
la lotteria delle località mi è piaciuta molto, se è vera, da dire che in questa zona del centro Italia è difficile avere un sorteggio sfavorevole perchè ogni località anche la più sperduta riserva paesaggi e sorprese incantevoli
A pity you guys didn’t visit _La Foce,_ which is about 10km far from Montepulciano and home of the wonderful British writer, Iris Origo.

Next time! Thanks for sending! ❤️ We would love to go back to this area with a plan and a car hahaha
Lost Spoleto!
A very sin
I live 40 minutes from this ‘random town’.
You live in a beautiful part of the world 😎
Tuscany my homeland 😮😮 my country Is fucking romantic
It sure is! 😎
What did you expect to hear in Italy " Bounjour" "aurevoir" " a bientot" ? Also nobody speaks with that stupid stereotypical accent from Holyywod movies, certainly not in Tuscany.. 🤦♂🤦♂
Ahahahah con quella cantilena e il gesto classico della mano. Buongiono arivedeci mamamiaaa🤌!!! 😂😂😂
It's always a pleasure to read obnoxious comments like this one. No, we were not expecting to hear other languages obviously... the comment was to express appreciation for how beautiful the Italian language is. We went to places before where all we heard was English or German. So yes, we do LOVE when we hear Italian! We're just thrilled we didn't encounter people like you in our travels throughout Italia.... ✌🏼
@@waysoftheworld_ sorry for them, they probably are ignorant and out of all the beautiful things in this video the only thing they was able to think about was the pronounce of 2 words, he wrote in english but i bet if we heard him in real life he would throw some broken pronunciations and probably your italian is better then his english, also don't know what they was talking about im italian and your pronunciation was better then the avarage foreigner that come in italy for just a trip so mean is getting good big W for you, hope you enjoyed the trip and continue to enjoy and sorry again for this pesants they really are embarassing and should pass more time with foreigners
@@ciaoatutti307bel ragionamento da maggiordomo, complimenti. Io invece ammiro chi non si prosterna riverente davanti ai turisti (yankee soprattutto) sempre e comunque, come è avvenuto per troppo tempo a Firenze, con i risultati che vediamo. Evidentemente per te bisogna adeguarsi ai soliti pregiudizi del cazzo come l'italiano canterino con la sua chitarra a fine video. Peccato che non gesticolasse abbastanza e non fosse disponibile un bel mandolino.
You are unnecessary rude.
I’m so lucky to get postcards 🫶🏻❣️. Love the flexibility of being spontaneous sometimes. Great video. ❤❤❤❤
We love you guys so much 🩵
