    Thank you for having me on your channel! Had such a nice time during your visit and meeting you. Best of luck in the future. /Erik
  • @thyncha
    Most people just have to look in the mirror to do that
  • These people are not unhappy or disconnected they just want a simple peaceful life and quite, they enjoy hard work and the serenity
  • @alilclosey28
    Ah the Greek Woman has my heart! What a sweetheart, and the way she called the translator her 'mermaid' is like she took in a new honorary daughter/granddaughter 🩷
  • @mattd5419
    I'm so happy to see Matt in a video again
  • @amirthehammer240
    There's alot of lonely people out there. I used to be a city bus driver. I said good morning to everyone. One day a lady who was in rough shape stopped when i said hello and said thank you. I said for what? She said for noticing i exist. That moment opened my eyes to the world.
  • @dannytube8867
    what we have to understand is that there's a difference between being alone and being lonely,
  • @gkukel
    Definition of lonliness can't be comprehend from outside. People become lonely even in crowded areas. If some one is healthy he can never be lonely, there's always something to learn.
  • @Amir2Earth
    I’m surprised no one is talking about the Italian guy! He is literally self sustainable, but on top of that- it seems he has his own crazy inventions. Like a crazy inventor 😳 he even looks like he’s from the past… exactly like Da Vinci FR
  • Ironically the most loneliness I’ve ever felt, wasn’t when I’m alone, it was being around people that claimed to have love for me. Being alone doesn’t bother me if it means a peaceful life.
  • @crazycoyote1738
    The two elders were very sweet, but the old man had so much goodness in his eyes. He was like the giving tree..
  • @CM-lb9eh
    Aw the nana was the sweetest soul.
  • @amissimo0
    although Flaminio may seem sad, as an Italian I can assure you that his tone was very joking and he was very happy to have you there
  • @Rovant
    The Italian guy is exactly what I imagine ancient inventors looked like. His knowledge on the world is so interesting, especially since he relies on old methods. I wonder how many others like him there are in the corners of the world.
  • @MelleSalome8888
    The Italian man touched my soul. I just wanted to cry happy tears the moment I saw him. What a human being!
  • @mikemitchell8219
    I am an Over-the-Road truck driver in the United States. Even though on the road I am around people all day, every day, I feel isolated and live life completely alone. I don't have a social life and don't share my many crazy experiences with anyone else. I am seeking discomfort every day and let me tell you, I love it. I am at peace and every day is a new adventure.
  • @levibeebe9100
    Glad you guys talked about being lonely even around people... the loss of connection, empathy, everything that makes us good. We need it back. You guys are helping.
  • @Peter-kk6rg
    I have lived by myself,for twenty years and love it,and don't like people. And have never felt alone.
