I just discovered your channel, and I’m currently binge watching my way through your videos. You guys do a great service to the presentation of all things Italian, bravo!

Ok, you’ve helped us make up our mind. We’ve only got three days in Florence and will be relying on public transport to get around. Oltrarno looks pretty good. Great video BTW, very informative and well presented.

[daphne]

I binged all your episodes on Florence as we’ll be visiting in a few weeks! ☺️ Cannot wait to see many of the places you guys have shown! ☺️ I am also looking forward to your further travels through Italy ❤️

[thegreatescapers]

Hey guys! Missing y’all and your content! Hope all is well ❤ we’ll be in Florence again next Spring! Would love to grab a pizza! 😊

Love this excellent summary (especially since we're leaving for Lucca, and then Florence, this Friday!). Santa Maria Novella and San Miniato are two of my favorites as well. Here's what I missed on your top 10: Museo dell'Opera del Duomo. The renovation is just stunning. Also love, love, love the Brancacci Chapel, but I'm guessing this didn't make your list because it's undergoing renovations. Keep doing what you're doing!

Awesome video. Thanks for doing this. I am planning a trip to Florence and my biggest challenge is to chose where to stay. Can I ask for your recommendation? Maybe a place that is central to those beautiful places in your video? Thanks so much in advance!!

[olgafrank]

My husband and I have watched your videos and it makes us excited to visit Italy, in one of your videos you mentioned a leather store where they hand make it in front of you and you can personalize the bag. Where was that and do they do big orders the same day? Thank you in advance.

[Breakawaywithnoreen]

Awesome video.
Can you tell me when this video was taken? Seems to be cold then.

[Gfysimpletons]

Hope everything is ok….lots of turmoil over there…..be safe stay alert….U.S.!👍🏼

[lailahufanda]

great Video!!..are these leather shops accept cards or cash only?

[DavidMonierWilliams]

Few people, especially Americans never see the hidden treasures of Firenze:

1. The Perfect Painter in the Cenaculo di San Salvi.

2, The hidden place of great food and atmosphere of Olio e Convivium.

I thought you weren't going to mention scull del cuoio <3 <3 <3

[jaaneese]

hi! great video! i would like to ask what you guys’ main mode of transport was? were the places within walking distances or were there public transports?

[zeescribble]

Hi! I stumbled upon your YouTube channel when I was doing research on working on cruise ships. I found that you guys share a lot in common with me and my boyfriend and we would love to travel and see the world like you guys do and figured the cruise ship would be a nice start since we are both from South Africa. Me and my boyfriend are in our last year of school and really really want to work on a cruise ship together. We are really desperate for help If I'm being honest lol. We would greatly appreciate any tips on; how to get started, if we need experience to get the job, what cruise line you guys would reccomend, what agency's could help us, how to apply and how to actually request sharing a cabin together. And if you guys don't mind, what jobs were you doing when you guys worked on the cruise? Both me and my boyfriend have looked into being bartenders so if that's in line with what you guys did, any tips will be appreciated !
Thank you so much !!
