A three month exploration of calling Italy our home

CIAO E BENVENUTO!

We are Paula and Marty, hopeless Italophiles since our first visit to Italy 19 years ago.

We have now logged almost 30 additional visits, as well as a long-held dream of one day making Italy our home. Now it’s time to turn dreams into reality…or at least we think so! We’ve embarked on a plan to try on Italy for three months — live like locals, put “vacation mode” aside, and see if reality and dreams align. At the conclusion, we’ll hopefully know if a permanent move is right for us. We’d love to share our adventures with you here!

“Italy is a dream that keeps returning for the rest of your life.”

Anna Akhmatova (1889-1966)
Russian poet
