A Day in my Life in Positano - How we shop & Carlo gets Creative!
Just a normal day in our Positano life...Possibly the coldest day of the year, it actually snows in Positano half way through the video!
We had pretty much run out of supplies so had to go and stock up so if you've ever wondered how we get the shopping from the road to the hose you'll find out here!
Also, Carlo was suddenly inspired with a DIY moment and wanted me to film it all (that's a first!) He pretty much took over the vlog with his creative ways which was fun and I hope he joins in more often.

WOW.....This is gonna sound really weird, but just this morning, I was musing about your videos, and I was smiling as I thought about how cute Holly is, and immediately pictured her in a cute little raincoat, toddling along beside you two as you go out on your various errands and adventures. As the image crossed my mind, I realized that I'd never seen her dressed in any doggy apparel, and thought "Well, maybe Nicki is one of those folks that thinks clothes on dogs are silly, and doesn't use them." I still couldn't shake the image from my newly awake brain, but figured that since I'd just viewed a post when there had been nonstop rain in Positano for a long time, and maybe that's what suggested it to my still sleepy brain. I finished waking up and went on about my day. THEN....late this afternoon, I ran across THIS post, and there was Holly, jogging along with you in her cute little rain/snow suit!! (WHAT ARE THE ODDS??!!)😮😮😮 I'd never seen this post before, and I'd remember if I had, because I was envying the coat rack Carlo made. (I was just picturing something like it for my own hallway yesterday!) I get these weird little alarmingly accurate flashes from time to time, but not in any way that's terribly useful, unfortunately. However, if I do get a strong feeling that you should buy a lottery ticket, I'll be sure to let you know, lol! 😂😂😂
Just great Nicki, Carlo is lovely seems easy going. You make a great couple
I am OBSESSED. More gardening and cooking, please. You have made my lockdown so much better! ❤️

Same here 😂🌹
I loved seeing the two of you together doing the ordinary every day stuff 😀❤️👍
That was just lovely. When I visited Positano I fell in love with it like everybody does. Thank you so much for letting me live with you in these videos. I think your lovely little dog has some Pekingese in him. It’s so nice you take him with you everywhere. And watching the cat come up to be brushed oh my goodness how sweet. Much better than the Kardashians.

What a compliment!
I adore this! You know how to make a cold, dreary winter day fun. Love the new coat rack Carlo, well done!!
Aaaahh, the Before Time... when Life was a bit more Normal and Sane, little did we know how good we had it, or what was to come! Good lesson, moving forward...
awww I want a handsome Italian man to make me funky things from old umbrellas too x
Absolutely loved that brolly coat hook,fabulous bit of recycling,Carlos is very clever.
I dream of living remote as you but when I look at how difficult something as necessary as shopping can get I have second thoughts. Food for thought
Love to see how imaginative and handy Carlo is, to make that coat rack out of umbrella handles is simply genius!
You both seem so happy in spite of the steps Lovely couple thank you for sharing
I just discovered your channel and now I am binge watching you. I enjoy your content and your easy going manner of filming your life in Italy. From a new fan in Washington state.

Hey, me too! I've been binging for a couple weeks now. Luckily Nick has loads of content!! I'm in Seattle :)
The coatrack Carlo made was amazing. I wish I was so creative. I wish I had found your channel last year but now I am binge watching all your videos for Saturday.
That's a great coat hanger art installation.... excuse me while I go search out old umbrellas!!! Thank you, Carlo!
"Accidentally bought these" hysterical! I loved hearing Carlo speaking Italian! Reminds me of my grandfather. No one in my faily speaks it here anymore :-( He's very creative. Excellent coat rack. Love Holly's coat! I enjoyed watching a day in your life in Positano.
I love the simplistic lifestyle that you and Carlo lead.
I love what Carlo did with those broken umbrellas! Very creative!
Loving going through all your videos! Nearly watched them all Love the sun, mountains, fruit and veg growing. Love watching how others live around the world.
I love how you and Carlo find creative ways to use old stuff and make useful things out of it. I just throw them away (silly me, so bad for the environment), but...I am learning and I am inspired by you ...Best greetings from Transilvania, in May 2021. I hope there is an endless supply of your videos ....I hope you get 15 million subscribers and just reward yourselves for the lovely time you offer all of us, sharing your beautiful life in Positano!
I was pleasantly surprised to see that Holly’s coat has a hood!!
Carlo is very creative. I love to see people recycle or upcycle.❤
Really enjoyed watching you "Two Peas in a Pod"...Thank you for sharing this day with us. Excellent coat rack!!
Awesome coat hanger, great idea 💡 👍
Like I said before, am totally addicted to your vlogs! Both you and Carlo really know how to make the most of your wonderful lives!

Hi Ava, I'm Carlo, Thank you very much for the comment, I noticed that you left many other comments, unfortunately I can't answer all of them, I'm really struggling it takes hours and hours, I could say almost all day, (they are not as veiled as Nicki) but I have read them, you are really very kind and I really appreciate who like you do, leave us wonderful comments, which push us to improve! translated with Google, Sorry.
This makes me want to live out my dreams of moving to Italy and marrying an Italian! More of you two speaking Italian and translations! This is my favorite video so far. I’ve been binge watching your videos old to new.
Watching these videos helps me keep my dream alive, that I will one day see Italy. Because it's not just the beautiful architecture that I want to see, I want to meet ordinary people and hear the language of my Nonna (she was from Napoli). I love how you show the splendor of Positano, but also the ordinary daily life of living there and the things that make your family unique. You make everything interesting, you have quite a gift for vlogging! ❤
Just clicked on here and it is exactly 2 years ago to today’s date. Still love watching your life. Carlo is so creative.........🤗🇨🇦

Carlo is indeed very creative.Great recycled umbrellas
2024 Living in New Zealand 🇳🇿 Italy 🇮🇹 blast from the past. Beautiful reminders that are so cherishable.❤...😊
Great idea Carlo!!!! Bravo 👏👏👏👏 Blessings for you and Nicki.🤗
love the recycling of the umbrella’s. My husband’s work area looks similar and I too, can never find what I need. So, for Christmas 2016, I asked my nephew’s to get me my own small tool box with tools. They did and add to it at my birthday and Christmas. I can now find basic tools when I need them :) Thanks for sharing your lives with us!!!!

Nicki! I just found you! Now I have been watching post after post. I live in Vermont, USA. Cold and snow. I own Cottage Hill Farm, 25 acres of gardens and a park. Summers are beautiful, but the winters brutal. It’s complete joy watching you and your home and family. I can just feel the sun. Best wishes.
Carlo should be a sherpa guide to Mt. Everest! What a load he carries, you too Nicki! And I love how you both 😂 together, so connected and loving. A beautiful couple! Thank you for sharing. I'm behind on the videos but I'm watching everyday, I'll catch up soon😉👍

I really enjoyed this video. The umbrellas up cycle was a great idea, and I found this video simple and very relaxing!
4:30 I recently learned (from a children's school) to cut a kiwi in half and scoop out the flesh with a spoon! I also saw someone use the mixing blade from a small handheld baking mixer (push it into the sliced half, twist and pull out!) Thanks as always for the amazing videos!!! Love them alllll
Love the New Coat Rack,Very Inventive. 👍
This is by far my favorite video. Carlo is so handy and he made me laugh when the cat attacked his doughnuts!
