I've never been to Italy yet, it is my dream. I'm almost embarrassed to say how old I am but I think I might have in one of your other videos lol... I'm 30 but never really travel anywhere and I want to change that. Just seeing lake Como with the clouds floating beneath the hills like that and the calm water. That really made me feel that sense of wonder inside. I love your vids :) and your story of moving from the USA to EU is very inspiring
If I have to die, honestly going in the coast of Italy is not the worst of ways.... still though. Be safe out there
Great video but the music was too loud that’s my only complaint
I am sorry for you, but we should not take everything for racism. you were stopped in the middle of a tourist crossing. There are many pickpockets in Paris who wait for tourists to pass by to steal them. If you had continued walking he probably wouldn't have said anything to you. I myself had the misfortune of stopping like that right in the middle of the tourists who were circulating near the Louvre pyramid. My mistake is that I remained standing when I could have sat on one of the fountain edges. Two security guards, not very friendly, came to ask me what I was doing standing there. They asked me to move out of the way or to sit down. However, I am white and French. As for you, when they understood that you were just waiting for your friend who was taking photos, they didn't insist. We need to stop seeing racism everywhere. Just because you're black doesn't mean you shouldn't be screened like everyone else, especially in these very secure tourist places. ;-)
I hear your experience in Zurich I lived in Geneva for 4+ years. In the public buses, 2/10 times when I would go and sit at a 4 seater with white people they'd move seats. I was 10-14 at that time. My brother who was 23-25 at that time would regularly get stopped by Police to identify himself I also played for a local football team in my neighbourhood (Aire) and some players would make racial remarks, but I'd complain to my coach who was Moroccan and he would deal with the situation Sometimes my family and I would go to a restaurant and we wouldn't get served by the waiters Switzerland's chocolate and metal industries profit from exploiting resources like cocoa and copper from African countries like Ghana and Zambia. from Kenya
A fellow North Carolinian!!! (Raleigh girl here, go pack 🐺). But thank you SO much for this video. I’m going to Zurich in July and was kinda worried. So thank you sooooo much. Please keep these videos.
Love your vids of Croatia!
Looking forward to see them all growing!
It's cool that you're from NC. I'm looking gor a better country, currently living in NC and looking to move out of country. Gotta visit Denmark because the USA is getting very ghetto.
Thank you for taking your time to share your experience in moving from the USA. I have lived in Florida for most of my adult live (I'm 30 now and was born in New York) and I've never been to the EU, so I know I should probably travel there first. But I have always been in love with certain places there, especially Italy for all of the obvious reasons like the scenery, history, people, culture, food, the beautiful language, etc. I have been learning Italian for over a year now and I love it. Italy is a bit tricky with the visas if you want to move there directly, as besides the work and school visas, you basically have to have a decently high passive income to be able to go there. Or get very lucky and get sponsored through work like you did. Short of that, I was also thinking about using my knowledge of English to my advantage to be a teacher or translator or something of the sort. This video helped ease my nervousness about the whole process and made me reconsider getting sponsored by work to move. I am also a person of color (a darker color than white... lol) and I've wondered about how it would be to go overseas. Obviously, it depends on the area you are in, and the individual people you are dealing with, but in general, I've read that Italians are very friendly and I have an online Italian friend group that I talk to regularly and I have to say that I don't know anyone more friendly and energetic than them lol
Plants can't do it on their own, after you explain that a plant can do it on us I've
Great video fam!
We are on the same journey. Best of luck to you both
Thanks for the insight man. I’m starting my German now. How much do I have to work on my French do you think?
How good it is in florence to live with family?
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Malmø is 100 kr(€13)by train - so leave the car
But just be a refuge not speaking English very well that’s another story! With your Tourist attitude your dollars and going from the US of course you will not have any problem any where.
Can’t wait to follow your progress alongside yall! This is my first year too and my garden is a bit adhd inspired
About your bad experience with police, the attitude is not different towards white natives French people like me. I remember one time I was walking in the streets of Paris and being stopped rudely by a policeman putting his hand on my shoulder. He asked me aggressively: “what are you hiding in your hand ?”. You see, I’m a smoker (yeah I know, how stereotypical…), and I wanted to light a cigarette but my lighter died out, so I kept the cigarette inside my hand until I’d cross someone that I could ask for a light. So it took me a few seconds to realize that, as it was happening while I walked past those policemen, they thought that it was a joint that I tried to hide from them. I was in a very good mood that day, so I just bursted out laughing and showed the guy my regular boring filter cigarette and my empty gas lighter. He kept his very unpleasant suspicious face all the while and just ended saying “Alright, you can move on.” and turned his back and left without any kind of apology or just simple politeness. As I said, I’m white, born French, and at the time I was past my thirties and not dressed any different than anyone else on the street. I had few Parisian police controls in my life but they almost always were an unpleasant experience because they never bother to be polite even when it turned out you did nothing wrong. So even though there undoubtedly is racial and age profiling going on (especially in Paris) for those controls, they don’t have double standards on how they behave during them. Whatever your skin color, nationality or social background is, they are pretty rude and never apologize if they made a mistake.
YES! I am English but have lived in America for 43 years, even so I have an English accent and there may not be racism, but there is certainly an 'attitude' towards the English especially since Brexit!
Looking good! Be great when you get to harvest them!
Zack my brother it's gech you are doing good! I like it
Nah bro, you're the only plug look-a-like here. 🤣🤣🤣
Actually something physical did happen Your Blood Pressure Increased Cortisol level increased your sense of safety decreased all events occurred and add up over time internally with each micro and macro aggression you experience 😢
Racism has no boundaries 🤔🧐 Unfortunately Black ppl have to expect it 😔
Great video! I think the lovely yellow shrub might be an Edgeworthia chrysantha, but can’t be 100% sure. Worth googling to see. It’s on my wish list! I’ve just subscribed and look forward to seeing your garden and your channel develop. I have a gardening channel too that you might like - check it out!
Yea I just googled and you're definitely right, it's the Edgeworth Chrysantha. It was the first bloomer already in Mid-Feb and it's a lovely smell. I'm going to subscribe to your channel as well. I'm looking forward to see how things are going in your green corner of the world!
@@NaturalwandersGreat! I’m pleased I’m getting better at plant identification. :) Thanks for subscribing and stay in touch!
This is wonderful in every way
Thank you!! We're having a lot of fun making it :)
Great tip for getting bricks out. I am needing to do that with some square stones and wasn’t sure how to start.
Yea I highly suggest just starting with a hammer and crowbar and some flathead tools like a putty knife or flathead screwdriver. It took about 5-10 minutes to get the first one out, and then it's smooth sailing!
My experience in Paris has been mixed. People are very nice or very fake nice or just plain irritable. I get stared at a lot and I stare right back. Definitely felt less welcomed as a dark skinned black woman with the elderly white French. But also have had some good experiences too. I like Paris but wrestle with whether I want to live here vs just visit. Its definitely very racist. I always feel like a spectacle here. And don't feel very welcome. The most surprising thing is how unfriendly black French people are. And noticeably how they do not seem date or marry each other. I rarely saw black men and women hanging out with each other. It was almost like they are ashamed of being black or afraid of the way they will be perceived. They are far more unfriendly than white French and that shocked me. They will go out of their way to NOT make eye contact or smile. I also don't feel welcome by people who look like you. I experience this in the US as well as an African American by black Americans. Sidenote: Spain by far is the most racist country that I have visited and hostile to the point of having physical objects thrown at me and very angry hostile shopkeepers. It saddened me as it is a beautiful country but not sure if I would visit again.
Whats name of hostle?
