    Small world, my mother in law was stationed there at the same time. My husband grew up there. He classifies Sicily as his home. We go as often as possible.

    You’ve shown me my Paternal and Maternal grandparents towns, I keep watching and I am understanding so much about why I am the way I am, it’s inherent, in my blood. I’m 2nd gen American, my DNA is 90% Sicilian but all the other small percents we can’t explain like Arab, Norway etc, your videos nailed it. Thank you!

    Hi It's interesting you speaked about eastern coast that siracuda is a must visit. But what are your top 3 ancient or just historical sites in the southwest? Before I went here I heard a lot mentioning of Agrigento etc.

    Also is it easy to go from example Taormina to southwest coast. Also is this trip considering hours traveling worth it?
