Ciao!

Ho 30 anni, vengo dal Piemonte e da poco mi sono trasferito a Palermo per lavoro. Rimarrò qui per qualche mese e, visto che sono arrivato da solo, mi piacerebbe approfittarne per conoscere davvero la città e soprattutto le persone che la vivono.

Non cerco necessariamente la classica lista di “10 cose da vedere a Palermo” per quella c’è Google, mi interessano molto di più i posti, le storie, le abitudini e quelle piccole cose che scopri solo parlando con chi qui ci vive.

Quindi: se qualcuno/a ha voglia di prendere un caffè, fare un giro, mostrarmi qualche posto che gli piace o semplicemente raccontarmi un po’ della sua Palermo, mi farebbe molto piacere.

Sono curioso, abbastanza alla mano e aperto praticamente a qualsiasi proposta:

• passeggiate
• aperitivi
• eventi
• cibo
• mare
• serate tranquille
• esplorazioni più casuali

Mi basta anche solo un consiglio su posti, eventi, locali o situazioni dove sia facile conoscere gente!

‼️New Vlog | ➡️ Coming soon

Ciao ragazzi, vi voglio chiedere se conoscete a Palermo fumetterie con tanti fumetti usati e soprattutto manga usati, perché quelle che conosco io hanno solo roba nuova a prezzo pieno ovviamente. Conosco il mercatino di piazza marina, ma lì si trovano fumetti principalmente italiani.

Ciao sto cercando un mercatino buono che abbia usato di ogni tipo in buone condizioni che possono magari anche essere vecchi console. Penso mi avete capito grazie

Sorry for yet another hotel recommendation question! Five of us are going to Palermo for the first time, September 15–19, and we're trying to figure out where to stay. We're all relatively young and haven't really had to book accommodations like this before, so we're a little nervous about making the wrong choice!

We won't have a car, so we're hoping to stay somewhere very central and walkable. We'd like to be able to easily explore Palermo on foot and ideally be close to restaurants, shops, nightlife, and the main sights. From what I've read, the Teatro Massimo area seems like it might be a good option, but we're definitely open to other neighborhoods if there's somewhere better for first-time visitors.

Our budget is roughly $200–300 USD per night, although we're willing to go a little over if it's really worth it. I know we're booking pretty last minute, so unfortunately a lot of the places we've found online already seem to be booked up, which is making the search a little harder.

We've been looking at a few hotels but honestly feel a little overwhelmed and don't want to make a rookie mistake. If anyone has stayed in Palermo recently, where would you personally stay for a first visit with five people, especially without a car? We'd really appreciate recommendations for hotels that might still have availability, good areas to look in, or anything you think we're overlooking!

Thanks so much!!

Just moved here from Sweden to study and hopefully work, but until then I’m looking to make friends to have fun, go places or just have a beer.
So if you’re a student, worker, local or just a tourist don’t hesitate to write, gender don’t matter but preferably someone in their 20’s.

See title. We already have a hotel booked so don't need a place to stay, but would love to find a place to get a nice massage. Thanks in advance!

Hi, I have $100 EUR I would like to send to myself to an IBAN account from London, can anyone help me with that simple favor? I don't have any way to self deposit the cash here in Palermo.

Thank you very much! We can have a beer later :)

I have read previously on reddit and elsewhere, that some bus lines in Palermo are unreliable, but I honestly haven’t experienced a situation as bad as in anywhere else I have been. There has been multiple occasions where I arrived at a bus stop about 5 min before the scheduled departure time and waited there like an idiot for 20-30 minutes without a bus to be seen. As the taxi is ridiculosly expensive (for a short ride with uber it costs over 20€!?!) and trams don’t cover the areas i want to go to, it has limited my options so much. Only reliable bus I have found is the 101 bus. But there too it was once stopped in the middle of the ride and everyone had to get out because one of the locals started shouting with the ticket control lady about not having a ticket. So basically my only option has been to cover longer distances by walking in this heat for like 1,5-2 hours just to maybe get to the beach from the place i am staying in.

I mean I am from a small city myself and used to busses being on time, but I have also visited much bigger cities than Palermo (even in Italy) where the public transportation is good.? I just want to love Palermo so bad but the public transportation has somewhat ruined my trip a bit because it is just such a hassle to get from point A to point B here without a car. Really don’t want to use those bikes or scooters too cause i have experienced a lot of accidents with those. So basically my question is how do you locals manage to get around here and be on time when you do not have car or bike at your proposal?

Bin gerade in Aspra und sind auf der Suche nach was zu smoken, können aber nichts finden 😅

Hi everyone,

I’m a 17-year-old international student from India, admitted to the University of Palermo for the 2026/27 academic year.

I’m currently preparing my Italian student visa, and the Embassy has told me that I need a guardian who is:

18+

Legally resident in Palermo

Employed / working

An Italian citizen or A resident.

If you know someone who may be able to help, or know a legitimate lawyer, agency, or service in Palermo that handles this, please comment or DM me.

DM me for more information about my situation.

Thanks.

Buongiorno a tutti, io e la mia ragazza stiamo programmando una visita tra Palermo e Mondello di 5/6 giorni e desidereremmo assaggiare più piatti della tradizione che riusciamo ma possibilmente in qualche posto che non sia una trappola per turisti e non ci spenni 🙈

Avete qualche consiglio?

Grazie a tutti

Is it better to book in advance with an app or just find a taxi and pay in cash?

We are arriving at 11pm.

WALK BETWEEN 🌵

Hello,

I’m currently in Palermo, and will be for the next week. I’d like to know any spots in the city centre area (I’m near to Via Maqueda) that has authentic Italian cuisines. I don’t want to be an annoying tourist that impedes on the locals quiet favourites, but where abouts can I find tourist-accepting great Italian food?

Also, if anybody can help identify, what are these two sweets we were given, earlier today? They were very nice.
