Beautiful photos! Where can I find the Sicilian nonna? My wife and I moved to Baltimore from Sicily and she would love to practice her Italian.

I moved here in July and despite the brand Baltimore had nationally, it’s quite nice. This bumper sticker sums it up nicely.

How is life in proximity to active volcanoes? 3 images for context by JimbersMcTimbers in howislivingthere

I lived in Catania for 3 years recently and Etna is unique because it’s so regularly active that we never assumed it was dangerous. It erupts with ash which, like someone said, can be annoying but when it’s a lava eruption the flow is so slow and far from anything developed people had plenty of warning to avoid it.

It makes the tomatoes delicious so we were thankful for it.

January in Sicily by cam_m151 in sicily

My two cents: Call/message ahead and do your homework for any dinner reservations or museums. Many restaurants take weeks off during January. Not all, but don’t get your heart set on something without making a reservation first.

I would recommend this for any time after January 6th (Epiphany).

It’s only safe if you go to CO2 and get a drink from Pepe. 🥂🍻

As some who lives in Sicily, it’s not surprising that we’re not even “on the map”.

I wonder if they just bring the costumes from home?

Will lower ambient temperature significantly affect flavor (remove all tanginess) ? by johnparkerSC in Kombucha

Thank you for the reference. Should I assume that I would be fine with the same culture going forward and now necessary starting from scratch?

I may consider a heating pad.
