I am 82 and am not thinking of moving, but this conversation did enlarge my concept of what’s possible. It is something I can still integrate, like the opening of the windows of my mind. It feels like a seed that was sown earlier began to germinate as I watched. I am wondering what it will be because it will be different than the lives I can imagine for young people.

“The answer is always NO if you don’t ask” WOW So true, I never thought about it that way. Loved this interview. Olivia is a fascinating woman. Kylie, I think you’ve made a great friend.

I grew up poor in North New Jersey near NYC. City kids (specially boys) can have the wrong kind of friends and end up in the drug scene and gangs (which are the primary sources of gun violence). It helps to live with a father (male figure that you look up to, respect and want to make proud, and who is not afraid to show you some tough love when needed, that you will be thankful for later on in life) so I understand why she as a single mother, would want to move away from that risk.

Single parent from Georgia. I recently bought a home in Sicily and am working on my visa so will be moving soon. My son is 14 though he has spent so much time there and loves it. Excited to be there. Such an amazing lifestyle

I’m just coming across this KZread video now and saw your comment ! How was the move? Was the transition well for your son? I live in Nj and I’m thinking of moving to Italian as well and I have a 9 year old son.

"Creativity does not have to be taught, it has to be protected." I loved this Olivia! Such an amazing video, thank you Kylie and Olivia for sharing your thoughts. Truly so inspiring and I know this is going to touch so many lives. I moved abroad a year ago after my husbands green card was denied. It was such a blessing in disguise. I’ve lived in France for a year now and I have grown so much and am so grateful to have my eyes opened to this beautiful world. Thank you again Kylie for sharing this beautiful woman!

I’m a single mom of 2 brilliant, beautiful, black boys (4 & 5) and that desire of moving (back) to Italy has been in full force circulating my mind. I feel the same as Olivia- not wanting to raise my children in America, needing affordable organic (and preferably more vegan options, but that’s me), and desiring a better education for them (not only academically but socially and spiritually)- and my heart is so glad that I finally came across this video. Actually, 6 minutes ago I searched “single mom of two moves to Italy” and this is the first option I clicked on. I’m so glad! So much of what Olivia is sharing resonates with me, down to back story and dreams and the choices I make when it comes to raising my children. I’ve never felt so spoken to! Thank you for sharing this! I’m a new subscriber now! To Olivia: I have had a plan, I knew it was possible, I’m ever inspired to just make the move, I’ve experienced it before (moving to Italy on my own) but never with children, however I know the ins and outs, I often have faith in my abilities and the courage to explore, and overall I know I can do it. But now, I believe in myself. I’m going to do it! Thank you Olivia!

And if you feel complete where you are, then you know this is your home.Also I think it’s a good thing to give your children the opportunity for dual citizenship. Great move Olivia.

@@KylieFlavell Thank you for your incredible work that clearly reaches far and wide

Olivia is a delightful person. I identify with her spirit of adventure. In fact I share a lot with her in many ways. I was a single parent to one son. He was a baby when my marriage ended. I lived in New York City but I never remarried. When I was 62 I just decided to move to Italy as I knew I loved all things Italian. My son, then in his 20s, came with me. He loved Florence and other places in Italy but wasn't happy to go back to the US alone. However, that same year he met his now wife, a lovely young woman. I have 3 grandchildren now and although going to the US gets harder every year, I am still doing that. I totally relate to what you said Kylie about the freedom of the wee hours of night and the ease of being there. I often stay up until 3am or even until dawn. I always say that when everyone is asleep and I can think haha. One of the blessings of living alone. I am however 73 now. In my opinion, having an adventurous spirit and a love of Italy is an ageless thing. Thank you Kylie for this encouraging video.

Inspiring, I watched this as a single mother of one who wants to move to Italy, it has given me courage. A pleasure to listen to two beautiful & articulate women, thank you.

It is so refreshing to see a mom in today's day raising her children like we raised our 27 year old son. Keep going strong and do want you feel is the correct path for you and your children and you will see amazing children grow into amazing adults. It is the best satisfaction a mom can feel. God bless you all!!!!

One more comment...I wish I could talk to Olivia. I bet we could chat for days. What a beautiful soul. When I clicked on this video, I never imagined it would leave such an impression on me. Yippy!

I love, love, love this video. A beautiful, loving, intelligent and fun conversation between two brave, amazing, inspiring women. Kylie, thank you so much for sharing your new friend Olivia with us.

Amen to that: "Angels can fly because they take themselves lightly." I think after watching and listening to this awe inspiring chat, how you two beautiful angels have taken flight, many will take courage and start exercising their wings. I work with small children and love to have them observe in the butterfly season how the butterfly comes out of it's cocoon. It's a slow process and I imagine quite a struggle for the butterfly, it's also very vulnerable as it goes through this process. Once it's out, having shed that restricting layer, it then needs to sit for a time exercising and strengthening it's wings for flight. The process can not be rushed, it has to go step by step, but once completed it is now ready with the freedom to fly. As you both shared I felt your lives with the processes and the struggles you have gone through reminded me so much of the butterfly. We will never be totally free of life's struggles but with wings as strong as yours I know you will continue to enjoy the flight of life. P.s you make good flying instructors. Christine Auckland N.Z

what a lovely video Kylie and Olivia! I resonate with so many of these comments. I left the UK in 2005 and have been solo traveling non stop 16 years, just me and my suitcase. I believe many many people will start living this kind of life now. THANK YOU for such incredible videos Kylie. Highlight of my day.

Wow this woman is giving her kids such an amazing childhood.

So interesting to meet Olivia! I lived in Florence and Scandinavia in my younger years as a single ( working) woman. How lucky Olivia’s children are to experience different cultures. But, most importantly Olivia went where she feels happy and can live her dreams. And that is the greatest gift to give your kids, a happy Mom. Life is short and there is beauty to be found in all countries. Wherever that is for you- go there.

I think Olivia is so down to Earth and such integrity just like Kylie! I agreed with everything that she said and she is very open minded! I think she is brave and strong and she will succeed for sure in giving her boys a full and exciting life! I moved as a single mum to a small mediterranean Island when my son was 6 and I managed to establish myself and give my son a safer environment to grow up in! It is daunting at first but Olivia was spot on, you keep in mind why you are making the move and what your goals are and you literally create your reality like that! Now my son is expecting his first baby! Wishing you a wonderful life Olivia and the fact that you have met Kylie after watching all her videos is perfect!

Kylie, you’ve done such a beautiful job to bring the essence of Olivia’s present experience to share. The visual touches and the texture of her voice, the authenticity of your conversation has left me inspired. It reminded me how I felt being in Florence. I am looking forward to also following her content.

As a mother of 2 small kids, transferring from LA to Padova during the pandemic, I can relate to this on so many levels! Thank you for sharing your experience ♥️

This interview has made me feel decades younger, for I want to fly like an angel! Nothing is worth weighing me down if I truly want to live! Thank you Olivia and Kylie.

What a wonderful conversation! Olivia seems like such a beautiful person, I can imagine how easy it would be to talk with her for hours! ❤

Thank you for sharing. I love Olivia's spirit of adventure. We must always challenge ourselves to live our best life! Kylie you inspire me to do so everyday!

Yes, she should be very proud. 😊

I loved this so much, I have happy tears. I enjoyed hearing about Olivia's experience of travel, moving a lot, life' ups and downs and looking at events through different lenses as it resonated with me as a single mum who has had to move a lot with work. I have had similar mental health issues from harassment and bullying as a teacher of children with disabilities. She is right, life's unpredictable, do what you want or take small steps to get there. This has inspired me to travel and get back into photography.

Kylie and Olivia, this was absolutely fantastic to watch! I am also a mom of twins and we’ve been toying with the idea of moving to Italy for a while now. It was wonderful to hear a parent’s perspective. Olivia, you are an incredible Mama! Your boys are very lucky. Hello from Vermont ❤️

Jeez, this keeps me going❣️ I’m struggling a bit with the whole transformative process at the moment, having moved to Rome about a year ago, following my own dream, my hearts calling, after given up a foreseeable future. No one said it’ll be easy, but I’ll be worth it in the end💗. You gotta be ok with being uncomfortable for some time. Very inspiring talk by fellow dreamers/achievers. Much love from Rome✨

It’s her mindset. The strength of it. She can accomplish anything. Thank you for introducing us to this extraordinary woman.

What a complete pleasure! Thank you for sharing Olivia with us!!

Such lovely perspectives shared here, really a breath of fresh air and so inspiring, thank you!

Thank you for this wonderful interview, just fascinating! I really resonate with the perspectives & thoughts in this interview (it occurred to me that you hardly ever hear these kind of thoughts being discussed in programmes/documentaries on mainstream TV and so on) Thank goodness for your channel. I also just watched your video on introverts - all of it SO TRUE!! it’s amazing to hear someone expressing the same things as how I’ve always experienced the world, especially the aversion to ‘small talk’ & being drained if we have to spend too much time in company and can’t get time to be alone and re-set. People in general really do underestimate the quiet ones (and worse than that can often mock them or look down on them)they have no idea how powerful the quiet ones are. Our connection to nature and our spiritual side is very deep and gives a whole other layer of meaning to life and the way we ‘feel’ the beauty of everything in the universe.

Your life is just getting so fascinating, I’m so glad you have a friend to share the same experiences as yourself. I hope to one day be in Italy, before I get to old.

What wise and inspiring women you both are. Thank you so much for sharing, Kylie and Olivia!

Taking her twins on a Grand Tour of Italy is inspiring and courageous for they will be exposed to new challenges helping them to evolve into more inclusive men who one day might help to protect creativity in others like their mother has done. 👏🏻🥇

We are back in Hamptons New York now. Our children speak French and they are years above their peers in taking chances and seizing the day. Thank you for this. You both are lovely.
