Wow! The guy is a hoarder. What a nightmare, but you can see he had so many nice things.

This was a very interesting visit to that flea market. The proprietor must have indeed been emotionally ill if he was uninterested in making sales. It appears he was a major hoarder. I sure wished you could have gotten that blue table. It would have looked so pretty on your terrace. Actually, there were many things in that fea market that would have been beautiful for your home. I love your videos, Alla and with each new one, I am finding myself looking forward to them each day. Thank you for including us in your renovation journey. ❤

mmmm roses and gardenias...

Yes ,indeed, a hoarder is an illness... Can't sell his items, and would rather they rotted.. Very sad. Keep to the Charity shops, I agree. Loving the camellias.. when they're all out, WOW!

Camilia's are the best!

Look at all the lighting above!!

How nice that you got so many pretty plants and the camellia bushes on sale! Everything looks so healthy at the garden center. It's a stark contrast to the antique store and the unwell owner. I hope he can find comfort and peace. Sharing these experiences can make them more bearable and us more compassionate. Thank you for taking us with you on your day off! 👏💚🪴🌼🏵️

Wow, I’m speechless… that’s a lot of stuff. Too bad he was not willing to sell cheep. Your dog sure is a cutie pie!

In the States we call that picking!! As in picking through someone's hoarder collection 😅

Think you should get those chairs that match yours from the terrace!

Alla look over on right hand side up at top you can set up translation to other languages there. now depending if you are using apple settings or windows you click on languages you want translated to or from. Now if you are a apple user just use google translate it will show up on your feed here on utube!

Buongiorno ciao my love the visit to the garden centre just fabulous and a bargain too I can’t wait to see where you plant the new plants it’s so lovely to shop with friends 😍👌My heart started racing at the antique brocante then I felt overwhelmed with the beautiful things thrown in piles left to ruin so sad let’s hope his family brings that treasure museum back to life 🥰On a happy note you had a day off new plants your pooche enjoying the water Grazie Mille See you tomorrow my love Amore💖💖😘😘👌👌🌟🌟

Can always use extras when you have a party!

The best way to visit that type of flea market is with a list. Then you are not overwhelmed with all the stuff, you look for specific items.

That was hysterical! OMG!

At least you got some Lovely plants. There will always be somewhere else to by bits

Good evening from east coast, South Carolina, USA. Good for you Alla for taking the day off. Keep doing this weekly. It will keep you refreshed and give you strength to carry on. It’s always a joy seeing your smiling face at the opening of your videos. Would you please share the name, number, and address, of this location? And also your address for mail? I see something I would like to purchase and have sent to you. I enjoy your videos so much! It’s like reliving my 33 years here in this 158 year old estate/homestead. I have spent 33 years and still, doing renovations on this HOME and GARDENS. Please keep it simple, yet beautiful, as you plan and reno. That market is the kind I like to go in and spend hours hunting for treasures. Lucky you.

Thank you Merritt 💕 you are very very kind! This place called Il Poeta (near Como) Google it, it happens to be very famous…but read reviews first 🙈 we wished we did read the reviews first haha Oh I wish I could see your renovation, I’m sure it’s beautiful 💕

Oh it's so sad when you see what effect boarding has on a person. There's 10's of 1000's of dollars there just rotting away and that's how it'll stay until he gets major help or passes on. We had a slavage yard much like that here and the council had to step in with court orders to force a clean up. So excited for your camellias and they'll look incredible when they're bigger 😍

If he would have good prices I would have a good rummage but I think he didn't want to sell, only accumulate. Do you know what the first plant you put in your basket was? It was so pretty and colorful. Your pup is so pretty, love seeing her being silly.

I will give you the bravery award for going in. I wouldn't have been that brave and from the state of everything I am surprised he is allowed to actually run this business. There obviously has to be laws and inspectors for the health and safety of his shoppers and himself. If there was a fire it would difficult to get out. I am glad you got your lovely plants.

Always been told by my Mom if you put something in your hand and it brings you joy it is yours. Never keep things that don't bring you joy. Buy plants that are green, yellow means it is not healthy. So look to see if bugs or something.

the garden center is addictive haha....

We are seeing that Hoarding and Mental Health are linked. 10 years ago this man would be called "CRAZY" or "ASSENTRIC". Now we know that his mental state will not allow him to sell any of his wonderful items. If you bring him something you want to purchase he will associate value to that item and price it higher than retail or he will price it so high you just can't justify buying it. Even if you agree on a price his mental state will not allow him to sell, he will get frustrated, angry, or confrontational. All that great stuff being destroyed by rain, sun, rodents, bugs, and idiots breaking things walking thru that mess Loving the videos, just subscribed this month and watching all your Lake Come videos

Hello! Enjoy your Videos from America. Remember the gardening rule; threes or fives of the same plants together. You will create a beautiful garden. Good luck!

And group the same plant and color together. Since the camellias grow tall use those as the background and or privacy fence. Mine are about 8 feet tall.

Very interesting place…… too bad they had nice chandeliers hanging outside!!! The poor Ill man must have been a hoarder. Anyways you got some tools to work with and gorgeous flowers, can hardly wait to see your garden. Where I live the weather is very cold and lots of snow, so sometimes when I plant they freeze in the winter….

@@DreamingofAChateau I loved a few pieces, at the beginning there was that hay rack against the wall and that would have made a beautiful plant hanger for a wall. And where you saw the duck picture I liked that oval basin on your right side, on the table. But yes it seems the owner does not really want to sell ! Its sad such places.

the owners of such shops are real hoarders. over time there is more junk in the shop than real antique objects and everything is neglected

Well that was just creepy… I’m glad you were with friends. Now we know where not to go. 😂

I wouldn't have been able to stay in that charity shop for even 5 minutes. I'm severely claustrophobic and I definitely would have had a panic attack. Also, your dog is adorable and the views are absolutely incredible. You are so lucky to have a house with those views. Where o live in US a house like that would cost a fortune for the views alone!

Hi, I've watched all your vlogs from the very first one and including today. Ok enough already. I commened you your work but you need to focus. It is very clear you have not done this before. The summer is wonderful but an Italian winter is very cold and bitter. Ok your house has signs of rising damp, mould and has not been lived in for a very long time. You need to get your roof sorted and get rid of those bloody wasps and get it insulated. You need to get your electrics sorted and tested. You desperately need to get your heating sorted tested and running now. Otherwise you are going to get sick and also your pupper. You will end up with bronchitis, asthma and God knows what else because you are not warm and dry and you need to get your chimney sweat and certified for you insurance. This is also important for your possessions, they will smell, grow mould on them and also just be horrible The rest, the pretty stuff will come later. Don't get us wrong we love the garden centre the markets etc but someone must tap you on the shoulder and say stop. You need to be be practical and get you basics sorted first and you need to get it done right now. Best wishes😊👩‍💼

The place was so overwhelming and too cluttered, way too much stuff and he didn't have any organization with it all just thrown together which makes it hard to find what you're looking for. He did try and have certain sections but there was just too much stuff. I think once the garden is cleared, and you can see the actual layout maybe a water fountain would look nice. Absolutely go back to your usual charity shop, that one was terrible. have a good night, Love from NY.

Hope they have a big sale in that second hand shop / to move that inventory

normal for large flea emporiums.. you’re late to the party 🎉 😂

It’s a sad place .. so many things are lovely and could start a new life but he is a collector not a seller .. everything is rotting away 😢

Hoarding is a very distressing condition. How sad those things are just deteriorating and will never find beautiful homes :(

Ciao, mi piacciono i tuoi video, ma purtroppo c’è scritto “sottotitoli non disponibile” tu puoi modificare?
