⁉️🙋🏼♀️ HAVE YOU EVER BEEN TO ITALY 🇮🇹? What’s your favourite Italian city? What do you think about Italians? 😉
Thank you 🤗 Stay Safe ❤️
Rome is lovely, was there only just about two nights, so have to return in future. Napoli is also very nice, just like the Sorrento area. Never forget the Como lake and Lago Magiorre area.... have been there several times and always had a great time. Thank you for your vids Anna... By the way, why is your name Anya at Instagram instead of Anna? Just curious 😁
Ciao Anna, I'm Italian ... my wife has two wardrobes full of clothes and shoes .... and every time we have to go out she tells me "I have nothing to wear ..." everything must always be coordinated and perfect, even for going to sleep ....Brava i like your video. Un bacino.
i will give you contents for the history of Italy if you needs
for example nuragic buildings have the same contruction method of giza phyramid
you are simply wonderful
A civilization like the one you describe would already be extinct for some time:
1) the "bella figura" is not a simple "external act". It has to be the demonstration of who you are inside. If you misbehave, you don't look good, even if you're well dressed. Being nice to others is part of the "bella figura".
In fact, we have a proverb that says: "the dress does not make the monk".
2) if the Italians all drove as you say, the insurance would cost more than what it costs in your countries. It's not the case. You are uneased at driving, so you cause accidents and pay high insurance. Suffice it to say that in Italy there are fewer deaths on the roads than in Germany i.e.
Not to mention the great love for alcohol in Northern and Eastern Europe. We are moderate compared to you. Therefore, there is more laxity in repression.
3) You described a first communion lunch, not the regular lunch of an italian. We would all be over one hundred kilos if we ate as described :)
4) to be Italian it's not like being of Italian origin. Generally, it is Italian Americans who mean to be Italian, while residents of Italy consider them distant Americanized relatives.
Italy is not Rome and Naples. We aren't France, swallowed up by Paris.
However, there is nothing offensive. This is just a slew of clichés. You saw what you wanted to see. If science behaved this way, we would be stuck on flat earth. Yours is an opinion. Mine too.
A few years back we drove from Norway to Toscany. Since then we've vistited Italy almost every year. Covid put a break on that, but now we hope to go back. Italy
Italy 🇮🇹 is amazing, might be an English Stereotype but I love Florence (a.k.a. ‘Chiantishire’). Italians are very friendly and welcoming both inside and outside Italy 🇮🇹 and if you’re invited to an Italians home to eat then they hold you in high regard, and you’re about to eat one of the greatest meals in your life. Viva La Dolce Vita!
Thank you but be carefull in this video there are a lot stereotipe ....and The Dolce Vita is a sad movie
Tuscany is for many aspects very similar to Britain.
Experienced hate crimes yesterday here..three ganged up on me the only American here..why? Well just approached the bar ordered a drink..next thing I know bar tender snaps my pic without permission..I say please can you erase that..then three screaming at me YOU ARE IN ITALY if you are over eighteen and in a public place we can do what we want and why do you not speak Italian you are in Italy..when I tried to explain they would not let me speak and said get out and in your country a policeman put his foot on the neck of a man blah..had to go to Er it was so violent.,hard to explain, but far worse than it sounds..these were the same people that had been previously friendly Soo..hard to trust now
Sadness
I’ve been to Rome, Naples and along the Amalfi coast, Norway can’t compete. Don’t get me started on the food😋😋
Norway has another kind of beauty, as Italian j would like to visit Norway (better in summer!) but maybe it's TERRIBLY expensive 😀
I actually find Norway stunning. Two different kind of beauties but still both beautiful.
In Rome,most Italian people are wonderful. Got help from several kind. Italians yesterday.
Very accurate, but we don't consider Stallone, De Niro and all people who wasn't born & raised here Italians. We say "di origine italiana" (Italian decents).
You may have been born and raised on the other side of the world, but if you have an Italian family, an Italian name, grow up with an Italian culture, you are Italian. If you were only born in Italy, but you miss everything else, you are not Italian.
@@villamedj3533
I am Italian and I know what I mean. Being Italian is not a question of documents, but of culture. If you were born to an Italian family, you have an Italian name, you speak Italian, you eat Italian, it has typical Italian customs, no matter where you were born, you could also have been born on Mars that you are 100% Italian. This is the reality of many "Italian Americans". If anything, it's the Americans who don't exist.
@@ITALICVS A person who is a descendant of an Italian who emigrated a hundred or more years ago certainly cannot claim to have the same traditions as an Italian today, nor the same behaviour. Just as Texans are no longer cowboys and sheriffs, Italians are no longer what they once were. Italian Americans do exist.
@@giorgiodifrancesco4590 Re-read what I wrote, it has nothing to do with what you answered
As Italian, let me comment a common belief about greeting in Italy which is totally wrong.
Except for very small zones in south, kissing people when we meet each other is a quite seldom habit.
This is usually done when you greet someone you did not see for a long time or when you meet with relatives.
You will never see usual friends or colleagues meet and kiss each other, even an handshaking is not used in such circumstance.
Normally we do not absolutely kiss someone who we have just known or just met.
Vero cosi👍
Ma per te, perche ai raggione 😘
Great clip. Thanks!
Good afternoon = buon pomeriggio. From 2 pm to 6/7 pm. After that evening.
va bene ma nessuno dice buon pomeriggio
Buon pomeriggio è come i decagrammi… hai mai comprato dieci decagrammi di prosciutto? 😁
@@giovannimaiandi3455 ahahaha esatto! Ma chi lo dice buon pomeriggio dai?!😂
Thank you Anna.
I love watching your videos! I learn so much!
Brava, bella analisi
Luv your video, very informative. As someone who has family all over Italy you are on point.
Thank you Anna. Again, another wonderful video. Curiously, we have a lot in common. I have been to Tromso, Norway and have photographed the northern lights there amid the magnificent landscape and aquatic sounds. And we are both living amid the environment of the Roman empire as you are presently in Rome, Italy and I am residing near Pula, Croatia just across from Venice, Italy separated by the Adriatic Sea. Possibly you might be able to visit Pula (though it is a very small village in comparison to a large city like Rome, Italy) and see for yourself how well it compares to the original world of Rome - and its environment - and the Italian people who reside there on a permanent basis. Once again though, another wonderful video. Thank you for your time and for your expertise in producing them.
Nice and have fun, like this video. Yes, spend 3 weeks 10 years ago in Italy but still only just in 3 cities. Looking forward to visiting Italy again soon.
Great vlog as always! Looking forward to see your next place to work and live!
Aww thank you so much Torgeir 🤗 I wish I knew which one it’s going to be 😁 seems like it’s still optional 😉
Loved the Italian view
Finally someone who studies Italy SERIUSLY! So j can inderstand in which way others really see US! .It's Very interesting, congrats!
I’m italian and my opinion these video are full of stereotipe
@@maurizionobili945 ce ne sono ma almeno non ci sono SOLO quelli, ho visto di peggio.
Lei e bella, ma quando uno va a vedere un video d'Italia, credo, che vole vedere cose interessante d'Italia, non sempre solo la bella faccia di lei, che ne anche e italiana.🤷♀️
@@MaryJane-bk9vj E dice tante cazzate😂😂😂🤦♂️👍
@@maurizionobili945 lighten up.
Anna: you have nailed it. All so true!
Very true!❤
I love your videos ...Brava Ragazza
I am an American Italian, family from Napoli vicinity (tra Napoli e Benevento). I've been to and driven in Italy several times. Italian driving, for me, makes so much sense. The one cardinal rule is "Don't hit what's in front of you." Everything else, I do mean , is fair game. If you drive like a normal American / Brit, etc., you will confuse them and get into an accident. I saw one guy rear end another in Napoli. They both got out of their cars, looked at the minor damage & each other, threw up their hands and then got back in their cars and went on their way.
Did you drive in Napoli??? Wow 🤩🤩 you are very brave 😁
After driving in England and Norway .. I’m not sure I can handle driving in Napoli 😁
Agreed. Italians have an amazing understanding and fully expect the unexpected. Great drivers!
Naples doesn't represnt whole Italy btw.
if you drive like a brit you drive left and go to have an acsident for shure
Cool video
Thank you very much ☺️🤗🤗
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel yw
Absolutely true
I really enjoy watching her video on Italy.
Thank you Michael ☺️🤗 more is yet to come 🤍
Thank you a lot for the video .. really smooth and informative .. we hope one day you visit us in Saudi Arabia
She's so good in vloggin
I'm first. Missed you. 🥂🍾
Aww thank you so much indeed 🤗🤗🤗 I’ve missed you too!
Hopefully one day I will visit Italy and enjoy it 💙
We just returned from Florence and Rome, you are so right Anna and everything you describe about Italians.
Aww that’s amazing! How was it? Did you enjoy Italy? 😉🤗
which would be like saying: I went to be a tourist full of prejudices in Norway and I already knew everything from the start :)
When you travel the world, don't think you know a country in a few days or months. Otherwise, we might as well just "check in" the suitcases.
Anna you are so full of life !
LOVING COUNTRY ITALY❤❤❤
Very nice video, it's interesting...
But, as a roman, I would like to say:
1. kissing each other on cheeks is a way to greet only your good friends, relatives and sometimes your colleagues, but not all of them. I would never kiss on cheeks my boss at job, or somebody I'm not acquainted to.
2. I am roman and I hate driving in my hometown, because the traffic is impossible and many people simply don't respect the rules. But I do respect them, and I think I'm not the only one 😊
3. At weddings or first communions we use to have a very long and "rich" lunch. But everyday at lunch we eat very very less...For example, at lunch I usually have rice or pasta, lots of vegetables and fruit. And a coffee, of course!
4. I always do my best to help tourists when some of them ask me information or directions. So, it's true what you say: we try to be kind to people who don't speak Italian and need a help 😊
Sei stata bravissima 😊 è tutto verissimo... quando vado all estero vedo la differenza, saluti dalla Sicilia ❤
buon pomeriggio is good afternoon and it is very common
Saluti dalla Puglia ❤
the fan consider Al Pacino as an Italian.. i love watching your video love your accent.
1) no, you most definitely won' t see business partner kissing each other on the cheek unless they have ben working together so long that they basically became friends
2) italian driving can be chaotic and aggressive but in most of the places is always inside the boundaries of law
3) no, it is not that italian "act their part" , it is that as it always happens with capitalist economies a society is unfortunately brainwashed into obsessing into whatever some of the primary industries produce and in Italy some of the biggest brands are about fashion. That is especially true about italian women, who are bombarded since young age with marketing to make them obsess about their appearance and how others perceive them.. but it touches also the male part of the population.
Indeed ...and may I add:
4) italians don't get from 2 to 5 hours to eat. Only in some special occasions like weddings or holidays with all the family. If you go to Milano for example, most of the places were you can eat, you have to do it standing or on a stool, 30-45 minutes and then return to work. Even in the weekends they prefer going out to do sport activity or trips in the towns and places nearby.
speaking of brainwashing how is it your marxist economies ?
Hahah, about Naples and driving, 100% true, also about Alfa Romeo drivers, they like the power of the engines and have passion in the car. You did not mention that we are not patient at the traffic lights too, but, I Think, Italian woman’ s are also very good drivers too compared to other countries, ex United states. Ciao da Monza e “Forza Ferrari”!!!!
My family has never been to Italy and studio Italiano presto; we hope to go and being respectful and doing the right thingwith them while visiting; thank you for videos that tell what NOT to do and what to DO to be a good tourist! helene :))
That was great, Anna!
Just keep this in mind, the Eat-alian way is:
- Antipasti
- Primo
- Secondo
- Formaggio
- Dolce
- Frutta
- Caffè
- Ammazzacaffè (Ramazzotti, Averna, Amaro Lucano, Amaro del Capo, limoncello, mirto Zedda Piras, grappa, sambuca Molinari... Jägermeister NEIN!)
E il mirto!!
Hai dimenticato gli antipasti! Fosse anche solo due fette di salame di quello buono
yes, but that's the full lunch, used only for wedding dinner, party days, like Christmas, Easter...! on normal working days we have lunch for example with one first OR one second plate, no more, + coffee always in the end. No alcool on working days, except in region Veneto, they drinks anly alcohol from the early morning and for some reasons they ignore the fact that ordinary water can also be drunk. so Ammazzacaffé only for dinner, lunch is quick, 'cause we have to go to work, with a full lunch I think we would fall asleep in the afternoon after 15 minutes of work
Avevo mancato qualcosa, che ora ho aggiunto grazie ai vostri suggerimenti.
Hello nice video Love from India
Now I want to go to Italy.
Long ago- the driver's manual for my Fiat 124 Spyder was much the same. I ignored it!
Fantastic car, when I was a child I just loved it. Now it worths €€€€€, and the Abarth version over 150k
@@ilmatanela1816 👍👍
Charming youtubes on Italy..... Reminds me of childhood in an Italian neighborhood. Now in American social work Environment.... It reminds me how U.S.A. work/social environment is hostile and boring. Sad... but U.S.A's competitive environment is a very different adversarial competitive social environment. Although, which was fine, you did leave out the demographic and career issues/problems in Italy's future. Well, for that matter in many mature European counties. Just watching your TH-cam was a pleasure /// brough back many happy memories and enforced my observations of lousy cultural issues in modern America.
Grandeeeeeeeeeeeee
Hi,Chou I been 3 times n I love cheese creamy with bread ,,,I miss you n Italy mountain pasubui
You forgot to mention the Italian population in Canada. There are roughly 1.54 million people of Italian descent in Canada. In Toronto alone there are about 470,000. In Vaughan (city just north of Toronto) where I'm from, 44% of the population is of Italian descent. Even though I was born and raised in Toronto I still consider myself as Italian/Calabrese.
Hi anna well I love Italy so much they're football league is amazing I know the teams of as roma lazio fiorentina inter milan ac Milan and juventus and napoli one of my favorite legendary from napoli the best player of the 80s and 90s who won the world cup in 1986 and it's diego armando maradona also there's a wall of maradona in napoli with jerseys of Argentina and napoli i will like to visit napoli oneday to commemorate his legacy in football i remember when die 2 years ago I Was very sad and I cried alot about the death of maradona he was the greatest football player ever in argentina and napoli
Oh, come on man, our football league is actually one of the worst ever in our history, Italian clubs sucks around Europe and our national team too (also if we won the euro cup).
No future for soccer/football in Italy, we only can live remembering the past.
Anyway, this is still a nice country, people is friendly, and the lifestyle is great, and the food, sorry for the rest of the world, but is the best in this planet.
@@ziomirko10 yeah I forgot about that italy has eliminated for the world cup is so sad another year without qualifying for the world cup and on the other yes I like Italy so much but to move to Italy it could be difficult to move to Rome or Milan I prefer to live in Rome it's beautiful and what about the Italian cuisine amazing I always eat some Spaghetti with shattered cheese and some parmesan cheese on top
@@Blazethecat-nt7rl prefiero Roma que Milàn, pero te digo que la mejor calidad de vida, en Italia, es en la pequeñas y medias ciudades, especialmente por el centro-norte.
El “lifestyle” es muy alto, y la gente, al norte, no es asì fria como muchos dicen, y hai un poquito mas de desarrollo economico, lamentablemente (digo lamentablemente porque me gustaria que fuera el mismo en todo el pais).
Ciao sei in Italia 🇮🇹
Great video, i feel at peace hearing about Italy the way we imagined it to be ... In the last 4 years i was made to believe, Italy was just the European part of China !!
Over one million Italians in Toronto Canada.
You are very pretty ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Mostrami il villaggio d'Italia.
Mexico has italians too.
ok. now i know who I am. no psy for me :D
Anna is so beautiful easily can pass for a southern European ❤
😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃
Italians do it better!!!
Without the Romans and the Renaissance the world would not be civilized…
Italy is an open-air museum, the most beautiful places are the less known, foreigners are limited to Rome, Florence and Venice.
The only thing that I can say it's false, is considerer the famous italian-americans people, like Italians. No, it's not true. People like Sylvester Stallone or Rudolf Giuliani, or Frank Sinatra, are americans. Somebody could say that they are americans with italian origins!
That’s why at the beginning I mentioned that it’s just a funny video 😉 I’m not Wikipedia to be right about everything 😁
Stay safe 🤗
Of course they are american
She just said that there are many people with Italian roots all around the world, due to the emigration of century XIX and XX, the last name of this famous people is clearly Italian, also if they probably don’t speak a word in Italian language, anyway they are surely Americans, but the are also surely more Italian than Finnish, or Japanese.
@@ziomirko10 She also said that Italians consider famous people with an Italian surname to be compatriots. No one Italian person thinks that Robert De Niro is an italian.
what superficial reasoning, it seems typically American 😂
♥️♥️🇹🇳
Have address and name of hotel on paper
My cellular phone died thought at Vatican suites but at Vatican style suites
Miles apart. Key card helped so yes people of Rome wonderful, kind, helpful
God smiles on me
You didn’t stop to gesticulate for a single second during the video. Just like a Neapolitan as he is usually described by anglo-americans youtubers. From two to five hours to have a meal? During a wedding party in the south, maybe. How can you think normal people could spend such a long time eating in everyday life? The same about cheeks kissing and hugs. How can you think we kiss and hug everyone at first sight like a bunch of sex maniacs? It can happen amongst friends , especially if they are young people.
I was few times in Italy and unfortunately don't share your enthusiasm.
Maybe her next move is 🇮🇹
I think you are moving back to England 😆
Permesso? in italian it means more "may I come in, please?"
Robert Deniro is only a quarter Italian
What happens in Italy stays in Italy like they say what happens in Rome says in Rome 😂😂
Big mistake. Regardless our local sense of belonging we definitely FIRST ITALIAN and then Milanese, Romans, Sicilians etc
Se tu vieni di Milano e un straniero ti prende per un napolitano va bene per te? Non credo.
@@MaryJane-bk9vj ne sarei solo contento. Come la maggior parte dei milanesi. Ma dove vivi? Sei italiana?
@@claudiox2183 Vivo in Baviera, dove sono nata e anche i Bavaresi sono Tedeschi solo per i mondiali.😅 Mio padre e di San Remo e vive la. Per me non e giusto, ma tanta gente del Nord non vogliano avere tanto da fare con quelli del Sud. 🤷♀️
foreigners always love Italy more than Italians, I'm not, from an Italian from Trieste
sto notando una cosa... non siamo i soli a gesticolare con le mani da quel che vedo...
what you said about Neaples traffis light is not true. Somebody told you for joke
TOTAL LOVE

Very accurate translation. I have read that someone has translated the Comedia in russian, of course using the cirillics characters, but , and it is amazing, with endecasillabi (11 syllables verse ) and rhym.
italian business partner will never kiss you in both chicks. This is reserved for family and friends.
I love Italy and italian food but being American italian I love my American italian culture much better then italy
You're a very beautiful girl
I’m Italian and I always hated kisses…since I was a child… and I can’t stand to be touched ….🤷♂️
Oh wow! That sounds more like Norwegian than Italian 😉
@@AnnaGoldmanTravel mmmhhh, I like Scandinavia … ehehe… having said that we weren’t so much “all kisses and hugs “ in my family either… I’m from Milan by the way ;)
North Italy Is colder, while people of Rome love to greet each other through kissing
Stallone, Sinatra, Giuliani are not italians an we don't consider as they were . Robert De Niro is different. He move
every year in his parents and relatives little town ( Ferrazzano) in Molise and use to try to speak in italian. Most of italian americans don't speak a word in italian and don't know nothing about the italian culture and life in 2024 but just have the italian surname. Because of them all over the world people got a lot of stereotypes and common places about real italian people. Italians are those that lives in Italy only and speak in italian.
Oh no. Oh no. Oh no. Try and look beyond stereotypes please. And there is no such thing as an "average Italian".
io impazzisco quando gli stranieri vengono in Italia e fanno i video per spiegare ad altri stranieri come siamo fatti. Non ne sapete niente
Tu ai raggione! Ma podarse, che loro sanno un pizzico piu di niente.😉
I’m sorry but I really have to break this stereotype now - not all Italians are well dress and “playing the role” like you say. Actually, there’s a lot of cafoni everywhere you go, as much as there is well dressed people. Just like everywhere else
Americans this isn't sleep
I disagree on the fact that Italian Americans are seen as Italian honestly. Most people consider them too americanized and different from Italians in Italy. They are also for the most of South Italian ancestry that is not the same of say a Tuscan or a a Ligurian. Also many people in USA claim they are Italian when they just have some grand grand parents of Italian ancestry. For example both Stallone and De Niro are not even totally Italian yet everyone thinks they are fully.
Sault.how beautiful ~📽
Thank you 🤗
