Really lovely video! I used to live in Collesano. Isnello's neighbouring village. I remember many an evening hanging out in Isnello with family & friends and freewheeling home on my vespa. I also remember as a young boy, heading up to Isnello pre dawn with my Zio to collect fresh snails. (For cooking). Happy memories.
@@MaryBartnikowski Living in the UK these days. Why you ask? Certainly not for the weather or food. I still have family in Collesano and Palermo. The rest are living on the mainland these days. I try to get back as often as possible as it's less than a 3hr flight from the UK. I tend to stay in Cefalù when I visit as it feels like more like my spiritual home. Staying with family becomes too weight inducing and not good for the old waist line. The older I get the more I seem to miss the place. When I do visit, I never want to leave. Maybe I shouldn't?!
Agate is the saint I'm thinking, yes I am coming back to explore more, Isnello is my ancestral town where my grandfather was born in 1898, it was a long time dream to get there and I finally did it. Thanks for writing and commenting.

Sounds fun, where do you live now? And why did you move, I'm curious as every time I go to Sicily (annually) I want to stay longer than a few months.

Amazing to think that racing cars roared through the town on SP9 prior to WW1!
I didn't know this - interesting - appreciate you visiting my channel
This town is ancient, but pretty. You should go to the Achates River in Sicily. It's where and how the mineral, Agate get's its name.

There's palm trees there?!
yes! Sicily is on the Mediterranean so it's warmer than you might think even in winter
