I love a little lack of order. I wasn't raised in this kind of order I saw in Canada, US, Europe

I wanted or live in Italy since visited at twenty two years old. The reality, I didn’t have a way to make a living there. Now that I am close to retirement, I am ready. I will have a good passive income by Italian standards and my Italian improves daily. I’m about a b1. I am very surprised to hear about the people who made those mistakes when moving to Italy. I guess I am mite cautious and thoughtful about the details. Thanks for a great video.

This is a great reality check. And its principles apply to any other country or place someone may be tempted to move to.

Love watching your videos videos I’m considering moving to Italy, and I would be grateful if we could have a chat and you could give me some advice, please

We retired to central Italy pre brexit.Life is totally different to UK and we are more than happy with our choice.What is happening to the UK is appalling and i hope that at some point they can sort the mess out.

So, what conclusions can we draw? You need three jobs to survive in Italy :-).

At first I wondered if this was Hugh Laurie undercover preparing for his next role

I’ve gone through them a few times no desire to live in. Rome is so packed so busy it’s crazy who wants to live in a place like that God bless you that you live there and enjoy your life and you’re giving advice about other places in Italy. I think it’s gonna be very beautiful as well because it’s more calmer and beautiful.

Also it maters where in italy you are living literally Rome Puglia Italy big difference NO??

Canadian here. After four years here he’s spot on 😊

Religion is the root of so many of the worlds problems! Anna, you are fascinating. I believe my Nonna was an herbalist with remedies handed down. I wish I had known then, what I know now. I would have asked her more.

Damian Q for you! I love Umbria, so do you recomend Spoleto? I wanto move to Italy and thank you for this honest Info.

I like this swiss hansome guy!

Please know that this interview was the most powerful, honest and courageous one I’ve heard in a long time. Woman listen up!!! ❤

I started watching this video, as an Italian, because I'm always looking for different topics to improve my English. At first, I kept watching it because the pronunciation of the two people speaking is wonderful, I love it. Finally, I enjoyed the entire video for its content! Congratulations, a great piece

Italy is for retirees with soldi soldi soldi. Italy is no place to work or make money. It is a difficult place to immigrate and so much so that those persons arriving by boat head north to France, Germany and England. If you have a pension , come, if not beware .

Would love Ann Lord to write a book on herbal remedies! Love this topic, so thank you for this video. There is another Italian woman well known for her herbal wisdom, Loretta Stella.

The Rif-Raf market? The prices are pretty high at the market in my corner of Tuscany. Not exactly Rif-Raf

Thank you so much for this information. I am pondering purchasing a small home outside of the US for rental income and extended vacations, as well as a place to relocate if necessary (I lost a sense of security I took for granted back in 2016 and I worry about the future of my home country).

Per gli amici inglesi: capite perché vi riteniamo snob? Questa signora è brava solo lei (solo lei ha studiato😂). Odia l'Italia: le donne sono tristi, i cattolici fanno schifo ecc. Ma vive in Italia 😂. E non si accorge minimamente della contraddizione. La cosa veramente triste è che l'hanno educata nelle scuole inglesi a ritenersi superiore. La cosa più brutta che ti possono fare. Ma ha ancora del tempo per accorgersi che sta sbagliando completamente approccio. E magari noi italiani possiamo aiutarla ad essere un po' più umile

what an horreble person you don't deserve Italy

wich hunts was more spread in the north of europe protestant than catholic world,the church of Rome was more fightin eresy than wich craft.Thank God you are supposed to love Italy,what would you've said if you didnt like it

A really honest review.

If you believe in reincarnation then i think it is possible this woman was a witch in a past life, or accused of being one, and so persecuted by the Church. Although I think she is spot on about Artemisia, I also think she has a rather inflated ego and is in a sort of one woman crusade against what she perceives as a threatening male dominated society. In 2024 we are not in danger of a dominant Christian hierachy oppressing us, we are in danger of being overwhelmed by rabid violent extremists who hate western society,and who are manipulated by cynical oligarchs for their benefit. Italy is in my experience a welcoming friendly place and i havn't seen women as sad there.

Sadness of italian women?🤔 It is a weird thing she says, a little offensive. Yes, she's right it is a men's society (not just Italy btw), but women are not sad.

I read this online about the herb also referred to by Wormwood...something to be cautious of: "Wormwood plants contain the compound thujone, which is toxic at high doses. Grand wormwood contains a larger amount of it than other wormwoods, but not enough to earn its reputation as a plant that drives people to suffer hallucinations and go insane."

Wow, very intriguing guest. And, while I admired her blunt candor, I was a little taken back by some things said. I've been researching possibly moving to the Tuscany area from Phx Az & after hearing her recount of what that was like for her, I'm a little frightened. I mean, it's been, as she said, 30 yrs. But, if you do the math, that means the gen z and Millennials, children that were raised by the type of people she speaks about means they may not be too much different than their parents. I've watched many podcasts about expats moving to Tuscany and not once have I heard anything negative. I thought accusing women of witchcraft was done over hundreds of yrs ago?! 😮

He's right, Ireland is like Italy. Just colder. First thing I thought when I landed there It's the religion thing

Lovely to see a fellow Scandinavian. I can easily see how she enjoys her life in Umbria. She is so positive, creative and clever. And what a beautiful place! 🤗

my kinda lady! I had similar living in Egypt as a woman alone. I'd love to meet up now that I have moved to Tuscany! Hoping our paths meet <3 Thank you for your wonderful service creating these interviews and videos!

I went to Amazon and got her book, Welcome to The Tuscan Dream :D

What a fascinating person.

what a wonderful love story, she is certainly an inspiration for putting her life before money. Same reason I moved to Italy for.

Where is this hostel?!

You are right when you say ,that the Italian people don't know how precious are the place where they live in Italy!

Good choice!

Hearing Damian describe the reality of his life in the earlier days is exactly the reality of living there. Naps in Roma! What a joke. Romans work really hard, in a city that can be exhausting.

Can you add a link to her home listing

Take 6 to 12 months initially to explore where you want to live & rent, and to see if you will actually fit in and like living in Italy before FINALLY deciding if Italy is for you.

I really enjoyed your visit and conversation with Hazel. I love hearing how people enjoy living in Italy. It takes me on a vacation without leaving my home. But one day soon I hope to travel to Italy and get to see all the fantastic things you have mentioned. All the best.

People like Maggie tend to forget that Italy is a small crowded country and there are not many work opportunities available. The old timers hang on to their jobs as long as possible. There is very high unemployment among young Italians. Many try to leave each year for work over seas. Competition is fierce for good paying jobs. La dolce vita is not always dolce

I did the same thing. I live in Abruzzo with my Abruzzese husband now rehabbing the family farm that got neglected after my father-in-law died. Could not be happier. Oh and my new last name is Meyer-Cocchino, 😂😂😂

I like all these stories of people who live now jn Italy!

So much so that in Italy the science of nutrition is taught in the gastronomic school !

Cooking is a science and an art at the same time, art creates, science indicates!

Good choice to live in Italy!

Brit’s in Italy …..ugh

Great interview, she's very vibrant and beautiful lady...
