Start Here If You Want to Move to Italy

In this episode of "A New Life in Italy," I took you on a deep dive into the must-know steps and key considerations for anyone dreaming of making the big move to Italy. We started by getting crystal clear on the 'why' behind your move—because knowing your motivations is the first step to creating a life that truly lights you up. Then, we explored how to choose the perfect location that aligns with your lifestyle (because, let's face it, Italy has so much to offer, and finding your ideal spot is everything!).

We didn't stop there—I walked you through the often tricky visa process, shared tips on budgeting for Italy's cost of living, and unpacked the ins and outs of healthcare options. Plus, I shared practical advice on how to truly integrate into your new community and why having a long-term plan is non-negotiable for a smooth transition.

I also answered some of your burning questions—like how to navigate renting with pets, the steps to apply for residency if you're a non-citizen married to an Italian, and whether it's worth touring different areas before settling down.

This episode was all about laying the groundwork for a successful move to Italy, and I can’t stress enough the importance of thorough research and planning. And, before I forget, I’m thrilled to announce an upcoming boot camp designed just for those of you seriously considering this life-changing move. Trust me, you won’t want to miss it!

I took my chance and moved to Italy this April. It’s a blessing in many ways for me. Started this little cooking channel of mine last month and taking life slower. All the best to everyone thinking of it and in the midst of planning ❤

Thank you very much. You did a very clear explanation, helpful and objective. I want to follow your work.

Thank you very much for all the information! I've never been, but I'm going over to have a good look around. The big cities don't do much for me, but I understand what you mean about having one close. I don't know if I want to live there yet or not, but I'm doing my 'homework' before I go, just in case. Tante tante grazie per tutto!
