Shopping for a Bikini in Capri Italy

Hi guys,

First I am sorry that we are so behind with the comments. While we are traveling our time online is very limited – but we will be reading and approving everyone of your comments just as soon as we get back home – thank you for writing :)

We are loosing our sense of time the longer our adventure here in Italy stretches. We have been blessed to see some incredible sights and experience many wonderful things. Italy is something that everyone really should experience at least once in their lives. People here simply know how to live well. This trip has been a life changing event in my life – it has opened my eyes to how rich a well lived life can be. Everything here from the natural beauty of the countryside to the food, to the warm and kind nature of the people here has worked it’s way under my skin. If you decide to come here and visit, I believe Italy will take a piece of your heart and hold it forever.

It was hard for us to leave Capri behind, but we didn’t have very long to feel the loss before we found ourselves starting a new journey by boat to Sicily. Zuzana has always dreamed of visiting this Island, and I have been fascinated by it since watching The God Father films :) We hope that you have been enjoying our Italian travel vlogs so far – and that you are still doing your workouts while we are traveling!!!

Best,

Frederick & Zuzana

    Hi there, I am enjoying reading about your trip to Italy. I studied in Italy and now live just on the other side of the border in Chamonix, France. You two are doing a great job and are very motivating!
    I wanted to point out at the beginning of your post that “We are loosing our sense of time…’ is incorrect. It is ‘losing’, just one ‘o’. Or for example ‘I want to lose weight’. Loose is used in the sense like ‘her pants are too loose in the waist’. Hope that is helpful. Enjoy the rest of your trip!

  • Charlene

    I just read that there are a number of stars traveling all over Italy right now….including Jessica Simpson who was pictured in Capri. That may explain the crowds at the stores.

    Hi Zuzana,

    When you try clicking on this video it says, this is a private video. if you have been sent this video, please accept the sender’s friend request.

    Anyone else having this problem?

  • Tiffany Stephens

    where you guys traveling w/o knowing where you would sleep? How adventurous, you swindled boat ride tickets! Even if it wasn’t so exciting it had the cutiest little sleeping quarters and it was something different, and in ITALY!!!! Have a ball in Sicily my girlfriends parents were raised there so they visit often and they say it is extrodinary every time. Do Tell????

  • Laura

    Wow!, I am soooo happy for you guys =), well deserved, and enjoy!!! =)

  • HealthyLife

    Yes so enjoyed very much. I love coming along on your adventure and shopping trips even if it is just to the supermarket. LOL Hope to see more of the same, they are a lot of fun.

  • Rebecca

    When you win the tickets its like Titanic! Hahaha :)

  • Katia

    Hope you enjoy Sicilia! Visit down Catania, I lived there fore 3 years in a military base and loved it, oh and please eat a panino on my name lol :).. no but seriously enjoy it! i miss it there :)

  • krolineb

    good trip nice of you to take us with U

  • Dan Gross

    You guys are having a great time which is awesome. Thanks for sharing your trip. You have given us all some great pictures. Thanks
    PS: You two are perfect together!

  • http://ozziepossum-diyhealthfitness.blogspot.com/ ozziepossum

    Wow, the trip to Sicily will be quite the adventure. Such a shame you had to leave Capri. It is one of my favourite places in Europe. So beautiful and decadent.

    Your cabin on the ship reminds me of my time working on Cruise Ships. I did it for four years and lived in a cabin that size the entire time (and sharing with someone too) It takes a lot of getting used to, living in such a small space.

    I am so jealous of you guys. I am dying to pack up my pack and take a trip again. Loving the updates.

    Dee
    Aussie Aussie Aussie, I LOVE Italy!

  • Tiffany

    Italy is beautiful but you must visit Croatia!! It’s just across the Adriatic and it has the most spectacular beaches i’ve ever seen

  • Tiffany Stephens

    It is better than I immagined so I think to be there would be like a dream. It is my journey to get there now that I’ve seen it through your eyes. I hope you all give the 411 on how you made this seem so increadibly smooth.

  • Regan

    lol it’s like the movie Titanic. you gambled and won tickets on a boat that will “never sink” and ended up in a tiny room with bunk beds. say hi to leonardo dicaprio for me :)

  • robbie

    you guys seem to be having loads and loads of fun! awww you make me want to go to Italy as well..
    Capri is really really beautiful!
    Best wishes for your journey coming on and have fun :)

  • ashley

    You guys are soooo lucky!!! I love the new swimsuit as well as the red one!!! have fun and be safe!!!

  • Kitty

    Yes…you guys are very funny…got your reference to the Titanic. Lucky for me I just watched that movie for the first time a couple months ago or your comment would have gone unnoticed!
    So pleased you are going to Sicily!
    And glad you are picking up some fashion souveniers along the way. No doubt you will have to buy a duffel to bring home all the loot…

  • sunny

    Thanks guys for sharing your wonderful trip with us. I really enjoyed it. I’ve never been to Italy yet but it felt like I’m in Italy traveling with you guys when I was watching the video. Thank you, I really enjoyed the scenery of the wonderful country through your eyes. :) Oh, by the way, Zuzana, I finally got my first Lululemon capri pants. I wasn’t planning on buying it but I was at the mall earlier and they were having a big sale and I got mine for $50. It looks exactly like the one that you have. The dark gray one with the purple and gray twist at the waist. It’s really nice and comfortable. I’m so excited and I can’t wait to try it on and do the work-out in it. It does really have a nice feel to the fabric. I really love it. Thanks for recommending the brand. And Thank you again for sharing your trip.

  • http://www.facebook.com/carlanunesdacosta?ref=profile Carla

    Haha be advised the men in sicily have no qualms with chatting you up with your husband around. hahaha
    Their food is awesome! and i really enjoyed that at times rustic place :))

    A la bella Sicilia

  • Antonia

    When you get home can you do a talk about what it was all like and what you learned and how you feel about going on the spur of the moment? etc… thanks again for this trip given to us via the internet.

  • Guille

    Frederick and Zuzana hello friends,

    with every second of video that I wonder at nature and places of this world so precious just in this moment it is winter in these parts but still feel the warmth of your workouts and your sincere words for each destination visit. I’ve been watching the last video michael jackson leave where he sings Earth Song, saving the land of mankind, I think all these landscapes make us think we have a treasure to watch. The capture of the butterfly was a great thing in the video those moments are like a miracle.

    Good friends by sending much love I just want to wish them well and I have a question that can help you carbonkid, how I can encourage my girlfriend to win the love of training, as she has many excuses to do it and the greater Entertainment sleep?.

    I hope to provide with any of my training soon,
    and will forward the phrase that is why my day, The moment you. This live is precious. never return, use to actions which neither time nor anything to achieve clear,! use it to create gestures of eternal love where you. lives. Feel inspired and motivated words of encouragement, remember you have all the tools you in front of you, you know better than anyone that internal motivation is the best source for success.

  • Montse

    did you guys buy tickets from naples to capri
    before or while you guys were there?
    looks wonderful i love your videos

  • Donna Prasad

    Wow.. that’s so beautiful! Thanks for putting up the videos for everyone. You both inspire me to visit a new country!! Last year I traveled to Tokyo, Japan, and wow.. It was incredible!! I had a memorable time there. Lots of friendly people, with good healthy foods there, and got to learn about their history and saw lots of nice places! If you travel around Japan, you will see so many things, I went to Hiroshima too, its so nice there. I recommend Japan for you both, its one of a kind.

    Thanks so much! xoxox
    Donna

  • Yobi

    Did you guys really win tickets or was it a joke?
    I love your site, it really rocks but im going to make a tad criticism. So you say this and that is expensive in capri but then you spend money shopping at Deisel??? Isnt that a bit expensive just for a bikini and some shoes–easily like 200-300 euros? I am astonish! How do you guys survive a 2 week back-packing trip while spending so much money on expensive clothes?

  • Marija

    Yey, it’s working!! I’ve watched the video so never mind my previous comment.. ;)
    Capri seems like the one of the most beautiful places in Europe!! Thank you for sharing it with us! :)

  • http://www.myspace.com/xxvdave David

    Cool videos! Looks like you guys are having a great time on your Italian adventure so far. Watching the videos makes me feel like I am on vacation with you guys, lol! Hope you make it home safe and sound.

  • Megan K

    Hey,

    It looks like you guys are having such a good time! The backpacking trip is such an exciting idea! =)
    That’s so cool how you played cards and won a trip on the boat, it reminds me of Leonardo DeCaprio in Titanic, his character gambled for tickets to get onto the Titanic.

    Have a good trip!
    Megan K

  • Langly

  • http://sxeanleedavid.z1space.com Sxean

    OMG,… I had no idea Italy was so beautiful. Thank you for sharing your great adventures! I too, realize from your pictures and this entire website that there is so much life has to offer. Working here at Microsoft is awesome, but experiencing life to the fullest is the ultimate. Again, thank you, I will make a point of it to enjoy life and meet people from all over the world and spread the peace, love and joy. :)

  • Brittney

    Lol, ya’ll gambled for tickets like Jack on the Titanic. lol.

  • Mickela

    you guys have to stop being so cute

  • Elena Balan

    Hi guys,

    This is an amazing journay, I am “watching” you and enjoying every single minute of it. This is an wonderful way of giving a little piece of your adventure. I am hoping you are going to visit Firenze and Sienna too..or Venice…
    It would be nice if you could post some pictures from your trip, maybe later, when you’ll get back home.

    Love you,
    Elena from Romania

  • Amanda (Maryland)

    Idea for website: Maybe do a randomized workout thing. So for example, a little part of the main page it will say “Today’s workout: “Zuzuana Kicks Your Ass Again Workout.” (lol) You click on it and it takes you to the workout page. That way if you guys don’t workout one day, or do not post a new one for a few days, or we’re not interested in the “current” workout, there’s another option that is selected. Sometimes there are so many to choose from that sometimes I wish someone else would pick it for me haha! :)

    Enjoy Sisily!

  • Ashley P

    Your bum does not look big. In that case my bum must be over-sized and I’m petite. You look wonderful in almost everything your wear.

    Those islands remind me of Hawaii a little bit. I thank you guys for sharing all this with us.

  • Eva

    Ohh, how wonderful places… And that butterfly, the sunset.. everythig.. and you guys are sooo cute together!!! :) Wish I could be there once…
    Many kisses from Hungary!! :)

    P.S: Nowdays I have some problems with visiting this page… mainly at night. Sometimes in the morning I can check it, it works, but when I get home from work in the evening it doesn’t work and I don’t know why because on my workplace I can see it (yes, I check this page at my workplace, too, so what??? :D) and from an other computer everybody can see it but I can’t… There is always this text: Maintenance mode, try again later, etc.
    I don’t know what’s the problem… but now it works so I’m glad. :)
    Oh and I’ve done the vegetable soup that you’ve posted a few weeks ago but I messed it up so much!!! :DDD Oooohhh I have to practice cooking… :))))

  • Marius

    You guys seem like two wonderful persons. Im really enjoying watching your videos from the trip. Have a nice journey.

    Best regards from Norway.

  • Pati

    I am enjoying the videos very much, the places that you guys are traveling through look stunning and I can’t wait to visit Italy one day! I have been doing the older workouts, since Zuzana is still working out on the trip too ;) I love the fact that you guys do burpees everywhere you go, haha!

  • Staci E.

    When you were on top of the highest point- it was so peacefull! It blew my mind. Normaly when things are on camera the sound is intensafied(sp). For it to be that peacfull on camera, I can on imagen how wonderfull it was in person.

    :)

  • becca c.

  • Carol Marley

    Where are you stopping in Sicily? I am currently living there with my family. If you have time, and want a workout visit Cave Grande. You hike down to the bottom and can swim, and jump off rocks into the chilly lake water. It is beautiful!!! The hike up is where the workout is. :D

  • http://30bananasaday.com Windlord

    Glad you’re both having such an awesome time!
    You love the “Godfather”s, Fred? How appropriate for my WO today of “Fat Assassin” ;)

  • Karel

    Ahoj Zuzano a Freddy,
    Musím upřímně říci, že jsem strávil skvělé chvíle sledováním vaší návštěvy Itálie. Moc vám za to děkuju. Nicméně mi hlavou projela myšlenka, abych vám doporučil knížku, kterou napsal Roberto Saviano. Je to mezinárodní bestseller. Je v ní přesně napsáno, jak vypadá současná Itálie nejen těchto dnů a lze tak lépe pochopit, jak se věci doopravdy mají.
    Mějte se krásně,
    Karel, Praha

    Dear Zuzana and Freddy,
    Truly, by watching the videos I have spent wonderful moments touring with you in Italy. I thank you so much for this. Nonetheless it crossed my mind to recommend you the book Gomorrah by Roberto Saviano. It is an International Bestseller. One can get the point how the things really are In Italy not only these days.
    Best wishes,
    Karel, Prague

  • http://www.cycleforshelter.com Sarah WS

    Hi Freddie/Zuzana,
    I was just wondering if you could tell me what camera you are using while you are travelling in Italy. I am going to be doing some video blogs of my own to document my training for a fundraiser……and I need to get something light weight, and that will shoot good quality video.
    Thanks!
    p.s. I love your workouts and have been following you guys for over a year now. Congrats on all your success and looking forward to new workouts when you return!

  • C

    When can we see Freddy’s body?? Come on lets see him in a swimsuit for once :)

  • Cat

    Hi Zuzana & Freddy,

    You’re both great – really love the workout routines. Have been used to doing the usual gym stuff like free weights, machines/cables & cardio machines for several years. Must say that since I began interval/tabata style workouts (your routines in particular), have noticed significant results in a short period of time. The intensity & high challenge level of the programs are awesome & *addicting.* Have already told numerous people about your site :-)

    You are wonderful people which makes your videos/blogs even more addicting to follow. Your *live in the moment* ways is refreshing. Glad you’re enjoying Italy. And by the way, Capri may be gorgeous but if the people there are snobby…it’s a shame. In your video you mentioned that you’d dress differently next time to fit in better over there…why would you want to? Designer clothes mean nothing/says nothing about the soul, as you know. Stay true to yourselves always :-)

    peace,
    Cat

  • Lullu

    Nice yourney …
    …next time you had to visit the best place in the world: the costiera amalfitana.
    It has Positano, Amalfi, Ravello ….
    This is one good for you : http://www.hotel-villasanmichele.it/eng/ambiente.htm

  • Ann

    Hi Zuzana & Freddy,
    I agree with you. When you travel, time flies so quick! My husband told me that after his first trip to Thailand( where we first met).He stayed for 3 months and felt like it wasn’t enough. When he came back to US, the way he looked at lives had changed. It was such a great experience to travel to other countries. Open your eyes, open your mind. You will see things that you’ve never seen before.Probably, once in a life time.
    I’ve been following you guys to Italy since the beginning and enjoy it so much :) I always want to go there. My husband’s family is from Sicily too.
    I’m still working out from your daily workout.I went back to the older rountines and tried to beat my personal best…and I did it!! Yesterday I did the bootylicious workout and today my quad and butt are incredibly sore.I dont even want to walk up-down the stairs…LOL.
    Have a great time in Sicily!!

  • Ann

    And that highest point of Capri is paradise on earth!!!

  • Jayne

    Hi Zuzana and Freddy, I have to say that Zuzana you look so pretty with just the little make-up that you have been wearing in this videos on vacation. If you are not wearing make-up too than that is great because you look so young and vibrant. You do usually look good but I think the make up makes you look older but not in a bad way I just had to say how it contrasts because it is nice. Your trip is amazing how you two are sharing it with us thanks again.

  • Mary Liz

    Hehe… you won tickets like Jack did in the movie Titanic. I’ll be checking back to make sure you got there safe now that I said that.

    I’m having fun going back to all the old workouts :) & watching you tour Italia. …. maybe they have prosecco in Sicily!

  • Carlo

    Hi guys, thanks for sharing your Italian tour with us! I’m looking forward to come back to my beautiful country to enjoy those fantastic places. (I work abroad)

    Just a minor remark: the correct pronunciation for “Capri” is with the accent on the “a”, not on the “i”! :)

    Keep on enjoying the trip!

  • Bruce

    Loving your videos, keep looking back on the site for new ones. Your right what a beautiful place … now I have even more places to add to my list of places I want to go to. You two make an awesome couple (Frederick you are such a lucky, lucky man hahahah) The videos are so relaxed and well done its like we are sharing your holiday with you, thanks !! ;o)
    Keep having a wonderful time take care.

  • Bruce

    Have to agree with you there Jayne, such natural beauty!

  • Sarah

    You two are so adorable!

  • Eric

    Ha, ha,

    didnt get that joke before reading the comment of Mary Liz

    Have Fun!!

  • Alina

    Freddy and Zuzanna, you guys are amazing! I just wanted to say that, ha ha :) But seriously, I am so glad I found this website, I am really enjoying all the workout videos. And how cool is that that you guys are sharing this incredible vacation with us, I feel like I am there with you. Wow, the highest point in Capri looks…..ok, I don’t have words to describe such beauty, I am speechless. Thanks for all the wonderful videos, you guys rock! :)))))))

  • Kerstan

    hello there,
    I guess I will start by saying that you are my new idol. I have recently gotten my personal trainer certificate and am obsessed with working out. I have been using your workouts now for about a month and just love them. I just have a quick question…I am at a stage in my body that I seem to not be able to improve. I look like you when you first started posting your workouts. I am ripped but not to the point that I want to be, how do I get past that? I workout three times a day sometimes and I cant seem to improve..and my goal this summer is to look like you, what do I eat…how else should I workout, any specific exercises?
    And one other note, my fiance and I live in Cranbrook BC Canada and I would love to meet you! please get back to me, I hope you are enjoying your trip over seas!:D
    thanks kerstan

  • Ashley

    That is so amazing and beautiful!

  • Shawnie

    Hey y’all! I am soooo excited for you! I have always wanted to visit the Blue Grotto, I read about it in a book while I was home schooling my kids…we all want to go there someday! I am not sure exactly where it is, but it is a little cave you enter by boat and the entire cave is lit by the sun only and it is a sapphire paradise! Maybe you could find it!!! May GOD bless your travel with joy and safety!
    Blessings,
    Shawnie

  • marX

    Me and my girlfriend is hoping to see a bikini beach workout at capri it will be so good to see

  • Cathy

    Hi Wonderful charming superwoman ;)

    I wonder if I could do spinning bycycle instead of jumproap? (I am doing the 6 week summerfit program).

    And the diet, do you eat carbs and proteins in every five meals a day? Was it one handfull protein and 0,5 hand carbs? Du you have something special of the fat – or do the fatneed supply with the carbs/protein measur?

    Thank you for a WONDERFUL site!!! Sorry for the spell..

    Have a nice time!!

    Sorry it’s Alps and Dolomites!

  • Jay48

    Saw your videos on YouTube and had to stop by. Great work, all the best!
    Regards.

  • Crystal

    I too worship the superwoman that is Zuzana. I have been working out at least 2 hours a day, (sometimes 4), for five months. I have lost over 30 pounds and have gained some great muscle tone. I do cardio daily, running or spinning, and also weight training.
    It sounds as though we are both at the same “peak” in our efforts. If you would like to share the advice given, I would be very grateful.
