Thanks for the video! I thought Popoli looked very interesting, but I was encouraged by the man who was showing me a house elsewhere, to not look in Popoli. He thought it wasn't worth looking around, but I found it very convenient with the train station readily available.

Glad you liked the video and thanks for taking the time to comment. I'm sure the man encouraged you not to look in Popoli if he had a house elsewhere. Have you already bought anything? There are so many properties available in Popoli and also on a private basis so you can avoid paying agents' fees. It's definitely worth looking around if you want access to a great infrastructure and facilities yet a quiet town with great road/motorway connections, a very central location in Abruzzo from which it is so easy and quick to access anywhere within the region either by bus or train from its very own station, or just walk into the parks from the town and immerse yourself in nature. Also a great investment opportunity now as Popoli Terme as it's now called is the only place with a Terme in the whole of the region and you can also easily let out your property on a casa vacanze or B&B basis to all those accessing treatments there as there just aren't enough rooms in Popoli. 😊

Ciao from Lille in France, I’ve been waiting for this video for a long time and lot of emotions watching it. Popoli, the beautiful village what my mother and grandparents had to leave to live in the grey of northern France. Small detail, we hear slightly the popoli carillon at 2mn 10s and the swallows of Popoli during the interview of Luca. 😉 I had the privilege of entering the "chiesa di Saint Francesco" on the eve of its reopening after repair following the last earthquake. "Chiesa della S Trinita" was closed, under construction. a pleasure to discover its interior, thanks to your video. Simpatico questo Signore Bruno . Ciao Bye

@@ExploringAbruzzo Thank you for your answer. My mother never got over leaving "Popoli". Many had to go abroad. Today, it is paradoxical that foreigners present the village to native people from Popoli 😉. Otherwise, have you planned a second part that will present the natural wonder "i sorgenti di percara" ? I didn't find this sujet in the playlist of the channel. Ciao

Thank you Luca. Your birthplace is just fantastic and there is so much to see and do, I hope others will take the time too to explore it as it certainly is deserving of more exposure.

Truly gorgeous video with so much detail. You are right to say that this fantastic city is mainly seen as a place of passage, but it must be said that it is truly wonderful and certainly deserves more attention. Thanks to your video, Popoli Terme (new name) with its beauties will certainly be better known and I am also sure that it will become an even more tourist destination, because from here you can easily reach all the other important places of this fantastic region. Great region with great people like you. Thank you so much for this wonderful video❤

Thank you so much Maury, so glad to read that you liked this video and yes, this town truly deserves more attention, you are right! It has so much to see and explore and such a rich and fascinating history. Let's hope that more people will stop off and visit in the future. 😍

Thanks for the answer! I thought the town looked nice, but I was only near the train station and the town square. I took the train from Pescara to Popoli, and then was picked up by someone to look at a house in Corfinio and another in Vittorito. But as of yet, I have not bought anything. Both houses were sold soon after I saw them, so I missed out. It's exhausting going back and forth for relatively short periods, from the US, trying to find a place. I didn't realize there was a Terme until you said something, so I learned something new. When I was there, in the region, I did try to contact people in various towns, using the numbers on the properties. As you know, that's difficult, too. I'm hoping to come again in the fall, maybe I will have better luck then. Thanks again for posting these useful videos. Jackie

Hello again Katja and Andrew. I’ve gotta say it, your videos just get better and better. I’m so glad you’ve made one about popoli, we really enjoyed our time there. I didn’t know the father of the Vespa came from there so that was a real bonus! ( I’m a huge scooter fan!) We’re out in December and would love to see you again. Hope you’re all well, love from the Stones.

I love watching your videos… so thank you for sharing beautiful Abruzzo and it’s beautiful villages and cities. I am coming in October to visit and was wondering if there is a thermal spa in Popoli that we can go to.. or do you have to be from Abruzzo.. I believe the one in Ceramanico Terme remains closed..

So pleased to hear that you enjoy our videos, that means a lot. Thanks for your lovely comment. With regard to Popoli's Terme Inn it is still currently only accessible with a medical certificate. It will be a few years before it becomes a spa with access for all. Caramanico Terme will remain closed. I'm not sure about other spa/wellness centres. I think there is a hotel in Alanno which isn't too far from Popoli that has a wellness centre and the Hotel Ovid in Sulmona but you may well need to be a guest to access their facilities.

A great video again. Very informative and helpful.

Thanks for these awesome videos, we are also looking to move to abruzzo and thought renting first would be best, can you give me an idea of how much renting costs per month for what sort of property please?

@ExploringAbruzzo

10 ай бұрын

It's a great idea to rent first and to explore the region so you find your most favourite place to settle. Renting really varies. The closer you are to Pescara and L'Aquila the more expensive it gets. You can end up spending 800 to around 1000 euros on a 2 or 3 bed apartment as we saw from estate agents windows recently. If you are in the countryside then it will be cheaper. Here in Popoli, for example it ranges from around 350 to 600 per month for a 2 to 3 bedroom apartment/house. So glad you like our videos. Thank you for watching and please do subscribe if you haven't already.
