I swear, when people enjoy so much visiting my country, I start falling in love with it as well, I start to actually enjoy stuff that I wasn’t even considering, and that tourists find beautiful or unique. Thank you.
It was my first time flying out of the country to Europe in may (my birthday month) and got engaged during my vacation with my man and his parents. It was so beautiful seeing the architecture of buildings, learning about the history of Greek mythology, buildings, art, and seeing how cats can roam and you can tell the people feed and care for stray cats. I was happy with my experiences there with my fiancé and his parents.
Hi Tiffany! You can find so many art shop here in Italy because we have so many Accademia di Belle arti, university of fine art. Also in Tuscany we have two Accademia, one in Firenze and one in Carrara (where I live) next time you have to visit Bologna! but don’t forget also Carrara😊, Cinque Terre or Genova… 😊
The mosaics were my favorite part. There was one on the way up to a tower that had the most amazing collection of colors - gold, pale pink, dark reds and blacks. Also always climb the towers for the amazing views! What a great trip! I also really enjoyed Florence over Rome.
How lovely ☺ I also thought the way you edited the part where you wanted to sit under the tree and then came back and showed why you changed your mind was funny.
This was the coolest video I've seen in a while. The feelings, the art, lifestyle, food, architecture.. perfection 🤌🏼✨ also the vlog felt very relaxing and inspiring. Thank you! ☺️🫶🏼
Tiffany, This was a wonderful vlog! You should do more travel vlogs featuring art and art classes! I did not know your bday is a day from mine! I hope you return to Italy again sooner than 5 years from now! You seemed so happy and inspired! Cheers ❤
This makes me excited for my own trip next year! It'll be a painting one with himepaints! It's nice to see ya having and enjoying the sights. I can understand your friends love of Italian churches, they're just so pretty!
I also did a study abroad for a month in Italy, in a small town called Rimini (it was the off season for their festival season so it was very quiet and slow paced). I also want to return back someday but I'm so worried I'll just be feeling super sad all the time because it'll be different without all the friends I made. So thank you for being brave and going back to your study abroad town and feeling all the feels. Maybe I'll be brave enough to go back and be nostalgic one day!
My first European trip was to Italy, with a massive group of classmates as party of a culture class. It was on that trip that I quickly learned what a nightmare it is to travel with a lot of people. On my last day, I disappeared and made my school group worry as I just wanted to have one day alone. It was the best day as I got to meet three random locals. I learned then and 30 plus countries later, that traveling solo is the best way to do wtf you want, when you want, how you want with whomever you want. The way to never feel alone is to stay in hostels where people from all around the world travel either in small groups or alone, stay. Once you meet teenagers alone, you will never be co-dependent on anyone again. Btw, your friend seemed to be mean and snobbish, the tension between the two of you seeped through the screen. I hope on this trip you learned that you can do everything alone and do not have to depend on anyone to see what this world has to offer, even abroad. It's like the Artist's Way book, a solo trip is a artist date every day for the duration of your trip. Great video by the way. It seemed like the best experience was the workshop, you glowed!
I took my first solo international trip a few months ago and I did a leather workshop there and it was so much fun, I had never thought to take classes like that abroad until then, that was so fun to see in your video! I relate to you in many ways but to see you do something so similar was so magical to me LOL
The church designs were interesting but I would be sick too after 15 of them. The morning and your sketches look so beautiful. Hope you have fun using your new art supplies. I never knew about the drawing challenge of earlier artists. Also the architecture and scenery is awesome. Thanks for sharing your trip
My favorite video of all I love visiting Cathedrals and Churches when I travel. And Im so happy as a Catholic that you made this video. ❤✝️💝💞 Thank You for making this video.
Every time I watch your travel vlog, I feel like I'm right there with you on the journey. Your camera angles are so immersive! Just curious, have you seen the new v4 Bento Bag and the Ikigai Backpack from NomadLane? They might just fit perfectly into your travel routine.
I love the idea of traveling and looking at and making art in different parts of the world! Thanks for sharing your trip! In the future, you can probably just get an eSim data plan when you go abroad? You can purchase ahead of time and it doesn't require a physical Sim, so you can have data right away when you land.
ngl your friend being mean triggered tf outta me and made me cry haha but this video was really beautifully put together, and being able to see italy with you was such an amazing experience. thank you so much for sharing your adventures, and your artwork, with us. it's such a gift. xoxo
@@apple.cheeksreally hun, try to think it through, no friend have to be mean to us even if you try to justify it “oh that’s our friendship” nope. Talk to your therapist about it, like no one should invalidate or diminish our feelings. Just a little advice. Hugs
Ahh I loved this so much!! I am from Florence and it made me feel the same nostalgia you felt in Modena to watch this here in Los Angeles ◡̈ You really captured Italy beautifully! Btw - did you know that the place you found in Rome with all the cats is where Julius Caesar was killed? It's the Theatre of Pompey and now it houses a bunch of stray cats!
When you said 'leather tortellini' I was not sure what to expect, I thought maybe there was another meaning to tortellini than a type of pasta. But what the heck - you made a leather tortellini! It's so cute, what?!? I want a whole bowl of them.
oh my GOSH. i just bought tickets to italy last night! thanks for sharing your journey there with us ❤ LOVE your museum sketches! (if you see this, have you been to italy in the winter/colder weather? your study abroad photo looks like it might have been warmer weather too...but thought i'd ask! 😊)
lol she is so cute that she call broccolli tree a maritime pine, I'm Italian so when she talked about it I wanted to understand what tree she was talking about lol. she is so cute. I liked the description, they actually look like broccoli LMAO
What a lovely trip!!! Thanks for sharing! I have a question, where did you get those lovely heart hoop earrings you are wearing while in Florence? They are so cuteeee 💕
❤ I think you were trying to do what you do at home with the library. That man was probably like you don’t live here. Go away. But I’m glad you found a better place. ❤ and you seem like a contemporary art lover instead of the old stuff. Which probably why you didn’t enjoy those churches.
Oh no you had to travel on our birthday D: I know I usually don't have good birthdays but I would hate to travel on it. Last year for it a hurricane came and lost the internet xD
I love your video and wanna try to go to Italy too, but is it scary to roam Italy alone? Especially as a woman? I’ve had friends with bad experience being alone in Italy so they always had to be in a group or with a guy (part of the friend group)
I feel like as long as you don’t talk to any random strangers that approach you and watch your stuff, it should be fine! I think I felt better about being there because my friend was always a walk away from me~
As an Italian I feel like if you walk alone like past 8 pm it’s get uncomfortable! It depends on the city you want to visit tho. I’m from Milan and I would never go out past 8/9 by myself. I had experienced a lot of catcalling and weird men just do strange things but as long as you are in a public place with other people you’re safe. Where you were thinking of go? In winter it’s beautiful visit Milan or Naples for the Christmas fever eheh
I'm Italian and I was looking forward to seeing this vlog so much! I'm glad you had a great time in my country ❤💐 come back soon!
Hoping to go back many times hopefully
14:44 the cats chilling in ruins were soo cute and adorable. I love the general atmosphere of your trip. Thanks for sharing it with us 😻🇮🇹
I stood there for a good half hour staring and counting them! I heard from other tourist's talking that there is a cat rescue there or something??
@@apple.cheeks 😲 that's so nice in a very unique place. I'm happy you could film them!
I swear, when people enjoy so much visiting my country, I start falling in love with it as well, I start to actually enjoy stuff that I wasn’t even considering, and that tourists find beautiful or unique. Thank you.
“I just kept picking stuff up, and I didn’t put it back down…” 😂😂😂 I really enjoy your travel vlogs, thank you for sharing them 😊💛
Thank you for showing us your trip! It looked so beautiful out there!
I cried along when you cried… it felt so emotional even from the video 🥺
Those are tears of joy, fond memories in a far away land can do that to us. I felt that. Enjoying your content. Making the year count 😊

@@apple.cheeks yeees in Carrara you can visit the Accademia, we have a leetle gipsoteca from Canova ❤️
bologna is gorgeous!!
I really enjoy your video. Nice sketches. Showing the architecture, art and urban landscape, nice. Thanks to share.😊😊
Thank you!
What a beautiful place, thanks for sharing. I love all the different details in the churchs. So glad you could revisit Italy and explore. ❤🇮🇹
OMG I was just thinking about putting one of your vlogs on in the background to draw to when this notification popped up 😂😂 Yippee!!!
Perfect timing

You and Darren need to start a travel video company for the younger generation. You are mesmerizing!
How lovely ☺ I also thought the way you edited the part where you wanted to sit under the tree and then came back and showed why you changed your mind was funny.
Italy is so beautiful…love those churches…really enjoyed this video ❤
Such a special video! A travel sketchbook would be so beautiful to create and see
This was the coolest video I've seen in a while. The feelings, the art, lifestyle, food, architecture.. perfection 🤌🏼✨ also the vlog felt very relaxing and inspiring. Thank you! ☺️🫶🏼
What an amazing trip! I loved seeing the leather shop and your making of the tortellini -- that must be the perfect souvenir.
It was really nice !
it's been so long since my trip to italy, this video brought back so many fond memories of the place, so glad you enjoyed your trip! 🥺❤

Maybe this is the perfect time to hit up some of those old friends for a small reunion!

Beautiful footage. Thank you for sharing your trip with us. 🩵
You are precious. Your friend is mean. Feel the feelings. You spoke of independence, be you. Your drawings are beautiful.
Right!? I felt that too! Like poor tiff just keeping up with him
What an amazing trip, thanks for sharing ❤
I’m so happy you vlogged in Italy. Thank you, awesome video

The Koh-i-noor is actually a czech pretty famous art brand. I think you would also love visiting Prague in Czech Republic 🇨🇿❤️
I had no idea! ✨

great video, really enjoyed watching. I have serious envy of all the art shops!
I wish our art shops here were that nice 😭
the cat sanctuary is one of my favorite places in rome, im glad u found it!!
Haha my husband and I visited so many churches and museums too haha 😅
Watching your vlogs makes me miss walking around Italy 😞🇮🇹
Italy❤ mi manca un sacco❤
Its LOVELY.

Your travel vlog is so well done, this could really become an additional income stream)))

I ended up getting an esim at the place as well, I’m not sure why they don’t let me install them beforehand 😭

Oh no! I’m sorry about that, we’re both unseriously mean to each other but we both really respect our friendship! 💕

Yeah!!! When we put them all into the leather dye it literally looked like tortellini soup
Lol did he say… “go wipe your tears honey, you look pathetic” ?
So rude
@@zazacage3106 maybe he was joking with her?
Not the style of travel I would do but it was still nice to watch :)
Nice Trip ❤
oh my GOSH. i just bought tickets to italy last night! thanks for sharing your journey there with us ❤ LOVE your museum sketches!
(if you see this, have you been to italy in the winter/colder weather? your study abroad photo looks like it might have been warmer weather too...but thought i'd ask! 😊)
Excited for you! It’ll be a blast~ the times I’ve gone have been right before it starts cooking down so unfortunately I haven’t :(
lol she is so cute that she call broccolli tree a maritime pine, I'm Italian so when she talked about it I wanted to understand what tree she was talking about lol. she is so cute. I liked the description, they actually look like broccoli LMAO
Too many churches 😂😂 I totally felt the same on a guided Italy tour!!
I guess that's why most like to travel alone :-)
Yup! Just have to get past the fear of being alone ahhahaha
if i had a friend who did not compromise on travel plans and took me to 15 churches id stop being friends with them 😭
get ouuut the cats on the ruins are the best
Re-watch it because of Emily in Paris 😂
Loved the video!
“Whoooaaaa, what else can you do??” 😂🖤🖤🖤🖤
What Fanny pack is that ? I loooove the size
It's the Baggu one :) Perfect bag for travel in my opinion
What a lovely trip!!! Thanks for sharing! I have a question, where did you get those lovely heart hoop earrings you are wearing while in Florence? They are so cuteeee 💕
From Ana Luisa~ they’re my everyday go tos :)
Standing in front of the random fans and ACs in the museums is a mood in the hot Italian summers 💀
It was the only thing carrying me through the museum 🥲
omg the cats! 😻

i love that your friend play Keane for you to cry hehehe
I actually think the park was playing it, perfect song to cry to
Eyyyy I’m also born September 28th.
Oh no you had to travel on our birthday D: I know I usually don't have good birthdays but I would hate to travel on it. Last year for it a hurricane came and lost the internet xD
It was actually okay! I ended up getting to celebrate a little with my mom since I got back early :)
Hi may I ask what sketchbook that green color?
where did u get the water bottle holder?
did you wear your hokas the whole time? theyre so cute and wondering if i should get them for travel
they're SOOO comfy, I literally wore them all of Italy, a month in Taiwan, and every time I travel domestic :)
Love your trip!
What camera are you using for your vlogs?
For this video I used the Sony AX43A, Canon Vixia Mini X and my iPhone 14 Pro!
Tiffany, I would really like to know where that leather key-chain/charm making place is in Italy please. ”35:00 “
Never mind I found it😂
Just in case I’ll leave it here for others! La Vachetta Grassa
what’s the organ song in the background used at 2:30?? it’s so pretty !
9:22 I thought you were going to say that the video sponsor was the Catholic church lol

What is the song at 19:09? It's so pretty~
Thank you for sharing. New Sub here..💕👍
Did he really call you pathetic for crying?
its was literally so mean. i was really shocked
your friend was probably a priest in another life hehe
he responded to this: "or maybe a priest in this life" haha!
You should have stayed longer. And enjoy your birthday there. And have a new experience. Oh well 🤷
I wish! I’m not as spontaneous hahaha
