I know! Yet Kylie seems to revel in it and enjoys showing off the weirdly fawning letters to G. She is creating a dangerous precedent, as mentioned by another Tattler, of the truly unbalanced taking it too far. If she must give out a postal address, and idiots come bearing gifts, then for God’s sake keep it private!

I thought so as well about Guido. It seems embarrassing to me, and probably his first time experiencing this world of gifts from randoms online.Kylie saying she will be like Grace Kelly in ‘To Catch a Thief’wearing these gloves, given to her by the Austrian, who seems to be sending over the entire contents of her houseI wonder what G makes of all of this oooohhhhing and aaaahhing over these discarded objets

Wasn't there a bag and used belt, too? @emm I've seen only a few other youtubers receive such gifts, and one in particular is sly about it. A while ago he must have noted that when he mentions something he wants, people send it. Some send very expensive colognes that cost hundreds of dollars. He usually drops hints in videos "Oh I really love xyz...but things are so expensive!" Or they will send him multiple packs of his preferred soda etc. Manipulative, bc he knows most of these people want to be "seen" by him and get a shout out. /cringe
Especially because it is Guido's actual work address! Imagine once travel resumes fully, people going to buzz his office?! Or waiting outside! Lol
yes I was just about to say this! I don't know any other influencers that don't just use a po box, and because of the nature of her content I am sure anyone with a knowledge of the area could find where she lives tooI thought so as well about Guido.

@emm I think it is completely OTT. The gloves are a very impractical colour and will stain easily. I am assuming the lady from Austria is getting on a little, has no family and is probably decluttering. I am guessing the bricolage may be useful for Kylie if they want to equip the chicken coop for visitors. But I do think there's something rather dotty about the frequency and quantity of gifts this particular subscriber sends. While I would be touched by a token, say, at Christmas if someone wanted to show appreciation of my work, this would make me anxious if I were an influencer. Luckily I am Pliny in Torquay and work in a fish canning factory in Penzance. I do not attract this level of adoration in my life.
I know a lot of influencers who do this but it is from companies rather than indivuduals, things like "can anyone recommend a good..." I think the Austrian woman also sent a coat or something too? I get that she must be decluttering, but it is sad that she is giving this stuff to some random influencer rather than friends/family or even a charity shopI thought so as well about Guido.

I wouldn't wish to pay postage on that lot! Ditto the old chap from America who sends old photographs and old cheques etc. This sort of ephemera tends to have value to the owner only who identifies with its history. While Kylie and Guido are being very polite about this gift and are no doubt touched by the old man's sentiments it must be pretty meaningless to them.
I don't understand how Guido doesn't find it weird tbh, or worrying to give his business address for this madness, I would have thought he was more sensible than her
I hope after seeing in the past months the volume of junk she gets he suggests she get a po box. Like I mentioned above, if people notice they will get airtime/a mention out of these things they will keep sending....and sending...
yeah I wonder what his colleagues think about it all, it must be irritating finding space to put all these parcels
Not to say annoying for his Receptionist and secretary if he has one.
Omg yesI thought so as well about Guido. It seems embarrassing to me, and probably his first time experiencing this world of gifts from randoms online.

Once more Kylie not thinking beyond her ego! Poor Gudio. She behaves as if she is a film star like Monica Vitti when, as one of my friend’s says, she is an advertiser creating one long turgid ad about and for herself.and as if she is some kind of property expert? the whole thing makes 0 sense
It's so strange. In one of her older IG posts in France with her family, she captioned the photo saying how she and her family were thinking of rennovating an old house in either France or Italy. I mean, do they just DO these things? Did she post it for to seem more interesting?
Somehow I don’t think the highly literate @PlinyinTorquay works in a fish factory in Penzance!@emm I think it is completely OTT. The gloves are a very impractical colour and will stain easily.

Love the ‘I am guessing the bricolage may be useful for Kylie if they want to equip the chicken coop for visitors.’ (G probably wouldnt want this stuff in his family home that is no doubt already filled with its own historicl curios
I think they will start arguing once they get into the proper renovations, she will want to have everything perfect, expensive vintage things etc and he will be viewing it as accommodation for someone else, whcih obviously you want to be nice but you wouldn't spend as much as for your own home. I find the way she talks about money really manipulative to her fans, most people would say "we are not buying xxx as it is too expensive" instead she always words it as "we can't afford it" as if they are living on the breadline, but which I assume just means Guido didn;t want to waste too much money on thisSomehow I don’t think the highly literate @PlinyinTorquay works in a fish factory in Penzance!
I see Guido is now getting in on the grifting. He has Kylie acting as his real estate agent, renting his chicken coop for romantic stays and enticing would be restaurateurs to rent his kitchen/event space for €2000/month in an out of the way location, during a pandemic when travel is restricted and restaurants closed. One of her fawning followers, ready to take up the offer, wrote to ask if any experience is needed !
Now we have the wedding show to fill production time and to appeal to all those interested in dresses, planning, dinner preparation, flowers, etc. The only problem is, Kylie admitted that they cannot legally marry, due to missing documents, but the show must go on !
While I don’t see any rapport between them and all they talk about is business(until recently) with both of them taking turns talking over and ignoring the other(I particularly like when Kylie is waiting to talk, Guido rambles on and she repeatedly blinks her eyes in frustration, as if to say This is MY video!), her followers obviously do !
It’s entertaining for sure, but not in the way she intended; I just wonder how many followers are taking her advice and are making plans to live the dream in Italy, where, with the fantasy she presents for preparation, they will find a nightmare.
This is where I have a problem with her and how she trades misinformation into likes and transacts her self absorbed narcissism into a false reality for unsuspecting followers. She should know better and I’m sure she does.
It’s a show.

Totally agree about her wanting to talk, she is so self obsessed she clearly wants to, but wants to play up to the meek 1950s housewife, it is hilarious. 100% sure now she is pregnant, the only reason for such a quick wedding usually is visa issues (which don't apply as this is not even legal and she has an EU passport anyway) why else would they be rushing it? especially as none of her family can go. I am interested in how she plays this out, I bet it will be "I didn't even realise I was pregnant" or she will lie about the timeline. bets on which?
I also worry about the people she will convince to move there, not everyone can fund themselves from youtube and , apart from english teaching, finding work as a foreigner (or even native) in italy is extremely difficult. I saw a video the other day of her budget in italy for food weekly, I was shocked how much it was, (nless I missed something around 120 per week?! or was this per month?!) I live in London where food is much more expensive and including me and my cat I spend less than her (and I spend quite a lot imo)
I guess she/they got a sweetheart price on her kitchen rennovation, in terms of the appliances? She's the brand ambassador!? Lol

Well said @Jerry! Agree with all of the above. Italy, at the best of times, is a difficult place for Italians to live and work, let alone foreigners during a pandemic and its aftermath. Yes Guido seems grumpy when Kylie makes all of her calculated madcap suggestions about how his family’s property should be renovated; and she looks like she can’t wait to speak when they are conversing as he is taking up camera time that should be focussed on her! The Kylie show is the only one that matters
Esatto @emm
Talking of money how can people want to be patrons - this crying poor by K is all about keeping the dollars rolling in while somehow downplaying the fact that she is actually residing on a very expensive estate that will be making more money from holiday rentals promoted by her videos!

Thank goodneess for this forum and that we found it ! I think it was only through reference in Kylie’s comment section that we knew about it.
How frustrating to watch the videos and have my comments censored/deleted by sweet Kylie!
There are three of us who watch, are horrified and laugh in disbelief, including our teenage daughter who is 100% Italian. We’re an international family living in Italy.
How nice it must be for Kylie to traipse through the sunflowers and dance with toilet brushes and Guido to ride a white horse, knowing that Italy is beautiful but broken. Or should I say broken, but beautiful, because I always come back and now am living here, with my new family.
We have a lot of fun comparing her depiction with the reality of our daily living in Italy.
