very interesting video 23 differences between american houses and italian houses i've done a
few of these i think i've done uh germany i know i have done that one and um i probably have done
i won't say i've done other countries to be honest i i won't say i have i won't i won't but
um definitely i'll be checking out this one right now 23 differences between american houses and
italian houses so without further ado guys let's get right into this video
23 differences between american houses and italian houses starting now
in this video we're gonna go into the houses of italians and americans i'm
talking about going to the bathroom doing laundry and all that stuff yeah we'll see
you don't open a window in america you slide it you need to slide oh a little bit of
sweet privacy we always have some kind of curtains at our windows to prevent the people from looking
into our houses in america there's no privacy you can literally watch
families having dinner all together from the streets or your neighbors having sex
in their apartment from the next not really do you remember fat naked guy
bro that's come on man that's a movie bro that's in a movie that's in a movie there's something
called blinds bro yeah you do have privacy maybe not everybody does privacy but you do have it
and how americans can live without having a balcony where do you keep you smiling garbage
in the summer where do you put the cake you just baked to cool down why do you drink or
coffee in a beautiful spring morning americans always complain that their kitchen is too small
i'm italian i cook all my meals and i do it in a kitchen that is the same size of your closet
we rarely have air conditioning in the houses in italy our buildings are built with actual
bricks or concrete to keep the house cooler during the summer we use ventilators to keep the air
moved we spend loads of money into our windows and doors to improve the thermal insulation
and we actually try to keep our energy consumption low in order to reduce the damage we are doing
to the entire world in america living in an apartment without ac is pure blasphemy
try to insulate your houses in new york city most of the apartments literally have ac boxes
stuck into open windows like this i'm not kidding we have steam heating so we use radiators while
you have mainly central air conditioning yeah in america you sometimes have these kind of windows
which are very beautiful to see in my opinion and especially they are amazing because they let more
light into the house genius in america the entrance of a building or of a house is always
higher than the grounds so you always have to take the stairs to get to the entrance not all houses
though in italy diandras is simply at the street level you also often have these beautiful wooden
porches westfield is famous for its porsches they even have a porch festival in june how cool is
that these other ones are in baltimore super colorful so cute in america if you need to go
visit a friend of yours at his apartment you don't need his name and surname you need his buzzer code
you dial another part we ring the bell through the intercom by pushing the
button that has the name and surname of our friends on the label next to who it
in italy we traditionally use tiles or marble which is very nice during the
summer because they keep the rooms nice and fresh since i suffer the cold a lot though
i hate tiles and i love the fact that it's very common in america to have wooden floors
thank you america for taking care of my cold feet let's go to the box for some socks no
literally let's use the toilet using the toilet is a pretty big deal for us human beings right
well for your information in america you don't do your business in a hole you know what
you do it in a puddle of water oh you know oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
why you got to use a public bathroom though you can splash it everywhere
when you relieve yourself and you can see everything clearly before it disappears i
strongly believe that the showers are one of those features that made america big
and for sure they are one of the reasons i keep traveling there
they always have the highest water pressure you can imagine
i'm able to raise my hair in five and a half seconds in america versus twenty-five minutes
bro did you see the drippy drippy you can regulate the temperature but not the amount of water coming
out like it's either on or off no in america you can regulate that you definitely can you can
you can building showers in the bathtub i swear i don't know why
as strange as it is you'll never see a washing machine in an american bathroom
nor in the kitchen sometimes they don't even have the washing machine in the apartment it's
very common to have a laundry room in the basement of a building that you share with every inhabitant
of the building if you're lucky otherwise you need to go to the laundromat to do your laundry
you american i know what's the question just popped into your head is it true some some
folks though like some apartments you have it inside like not in your uh you have a separate uh
area where you can do your thing but not every apartment the newer versions definitely has it
like that where you can do it inside but um inside your own apartment but the older ones
nah you gotta pay italians keep their washing machine in the kitchen yes it's true even if
it's more common to keep it in the bathroom on the balcony which you don't have or in the basement
it is extremely common in america to have white painted wood i'm talking about doors
railings and all that white painted wood i'm talking about doors railings and all that stuff
which i think it gives a touch of freshness and elegance in every house don't you think you also
sometimes have weird plaster decorations on the walls resembling the ones we used in the churches
in the 17th century which i personally find quite kitsch but it's a matter of taste do you like them
let me know in the comments oh i almost forgot to talk about the tumble dryer the tumble dryer
an appliance without which any american would be completely lost seriously if
you break your dryer in america you don't wash your clothes they are not able to find
any alternative solution to dry their clothes i'm serious yeah the europeans do that a lot
though is that when they have houses built next to each other they actually have a space between them
like it's too narrow to have a garden or a usable nice space but it's still a space that screws
up the insulation of the buildings why don't you try to save some energy from time to time america
come on do you know that everything in america comes in an extra large size well really the
best thing about this is that beds come in an extra large size too for someone who loves
sleeping like myself that's a dream for all the americans watching for at least the first 18 years
of our lives every time sleeps in a bed like this one for all the italians watching every american
kid grows up sleeping in a bed that actually fits two people in it i know what it sounds like
but look at the bright side if you're used to sleep in a bag like this
when you get to sleep in bed like this it will feel like heaven yeah the b day ah the b day i
could make an entire video about the b day here let's just say that like any other countries
out of italy in america you'll never find a b day sorry fellas last one what is virus cape
america americans made of their fire escapes a symbol of their cities and an embellishment of
their buildings the streets in their rich village in manhattan holly co-likely playing moon river
retail guitar the view from my friend pablo's apartment that i posted on my instagram profile
go check out my instagram if you haven't yet the final scene of pretty woman what country would
america be without those fire escapes if you like this video please give it a thumbs up and share it
with your friends you know how many people died in those apartments bro in like i know about new york
but a lot of people died with that that fire escape thing and it's not even anything special
bro but a lot of people died with those apartments but i don't even like apartments like that i like
apartments where it's like a home home itself not those type of apartments you know what i mean but
yeah what it is man but um yeah pretty interesting video 23 differences between america american
houses and italian houses what was that one that she just spoke about i don't even remember
