You are absolutely correct. Italians enjoy to invent things to complain about rather than taking advantage of all the opportunities they have. Having Americans who want to go Italy is a blessing. As an Italian I write.
I’ve been living in Italy for 8 years now and love it. One thing I think is important to consider: a small town, north or south, can seem very charming, but if you are moving solo, it can be extremely limiting in terms of a social life. Also in the south, services and amenities are not as accessible, especially healthcare. I’m in Firenze (just outside of the historic center so I’m away from the tourist crush but still within walking distance). Yes, the cities are more expensive than small towns, and the north is more expensive than the south, but if you’re coming from a US city like Boston, NY, SF, etc, the cost of living here is still significantly less than in the US.
I love Firenze, but it is too expensive for me. I am thinking about Brescia, Bergamo, or maybe somewhere in Emilia-Romanga - but I have to get the process started as I am not getting any younger!
@@oopsie3552uhhh....okay buddy!! Do you NOT THINK THAT PEOPLE FROM ALL CORNERS OF THE WORLD ---SOMETIMES MOVE TO DIFFERENT PLACES???? God help you I guess if YOU ever need/ want to move to a different place....
MAIN POINT: some people, I included, find it much more interesting to challenge themselves out of their original Country. As an Italian, I decided to live in NYC and found new sides of myself. After 22 years, I relocated to Japan. Moving unleashes new energies; although some other folks are perfectly fine with living and growing in one spot, without moving.
@@Karl__Pierre you’re A big adventure because I assume it was quite the change from Italy to Japan . I truly believe it’s quite boring to live in one place your whole life. It is good to get out (of the 🇺🇸) & see the world if you can afford it . Just living in one place all your life is very monotonous & flat out boring . You don’t have to have money to travel & see the world 🌎 ; this video brings across that point ❤❤❤❤❤
I often think about moving out of country - but I don’t see how people can leave family. I guess if I could afford to travel home 12 times a year, I could be happy.

My parents moved to America in 1968 from Campania (right outside of Naples) and my in-laws came from Sicily at around the same time. I find it absolutely fascinating that people are now leaving the US and going back to Europe or other places that historically would have lost part of its population to the US. Although I love America, I understand that the cost of living has become unsustainable for many. While that may not be the only reason people are leaving, I'm sure it's one of the top 5. Great video!
So, it's just the cost of living? Not due in anyway to Americans uncaring attitude towards their own kind and the world. Greed, selfishness, back stabbing that is part of their no morals, no conscience, no remorse, unsympathetic culture/mindset!
actually, It is not that many Americans that are leaving the US for Europe. Italy is only good if you are retired or if you are lucky have a remote job and live the Bella vita. Italy faces a serious brain drain...the young with their advanced degrees like my husband are leaving and there will be nothing left of Italy in the future. Sorry to be pessimistic but it is true. America's American dream is long dead but it is still country of opportunities and possibilities.
People are not leaving the US for Europe, as opportunities in Europe (particularly Mediterranean Europe) are very limited. It's expats with their jobs or retirees who sometimes do so. Still interesting, I agree, but not as much as they say
This made me cry. I really really am longing to move from California. We have been contemplating selling our home and relocating. I need real friendships and kind and loving people around me. We don’t have that as Americans. I used to live in Spain, made soo many friends who still check in on me ten years later. Been to Italy a few times and the love and support we got there esp being an interracial couple, was just above and beyond. I need a good sense of community without worrying about all the nonsense we have here in the states. We live a very blessed life and are in one of the best cities on the west coast of Carlsbad California, but something is really missing. And as an empath, it’s something I need desperately. We don’t trust easily and we don’t keep company with the wrong people. Ive always felt loved there. My hubby thinks it’s a great idea as well. It’s just a matter of making it happen. I think I’ll be at peace. I’m still young at 45 and my hubby retired early, but I can work remotely. I just want a simpler happier existence. ❤ Love this series. Love this video. 🙏
Given the situation you can qualify for a retiree visa. Depending on the situation you may not need to sell the home. Would love to hear more about your situation. If you need some help planning you can book a call to talk through your plan.
"What if you miss the opportunity to make ricotta cheese from scratch" and "Happiness is in helping others" WOW. I couldn't agree more! What a great way to start my morning.

I live in Abruzzo region. I have been here for 5 years. I think this area is the REAL Italy as well as Calabria. People are generous, kind and helpful. And homes are not expensive. I am near the Adriatic Sea. The average home in these villages go from 20k to 40 k 2 bedroom homes.
I looked at small villages in Abruzzo. Great values and some very interesting places. But a lack of public transportation to/from most of the smaller places. I ended up in Marche where there is very good bus service to the villages.
@@tangodaze I don't live in Italy full time but only while escaping the winter snow where I spend most of my year. That said, I really enjoy my time in Marche. That may come largely from being in a fairly small village where people are out and about on the streets during the days as opposed to in their cars. It's easy to meet and enjoy people which is not the case in most places I've been. The downside, and I think this applies to pretty much all of Italy, is that there are few restaurant options other than Italian. Since I cook most of my meals myself I can work around that but it would be nice to have some options when going out to eat.
Myself, son, daughter and grandchildren are all going for our Italian citizenship. Hopefully that will bring more young people back to the small towns. We plan on staying in Sicily for 3 months at a time to start. Who knows we may end up staying.
@@chrisf1881 If they need a job either they speak Italian or work online or will have to find an Italian company that hires native English speakers. Opening a business can be a nightmare tax/time wise, although opportunities are everywhere in the world 🙂
Oh WOW! You guys did such a beautiful job! Thank you so much! I honestly had so much fun with you guys and really hope you will come back on vacation. Beautiful Karl!
How did I miss this collab? Glad you two made this possible. Love Chris and her channel. Thank you much for showing us the end result of your own project renovation. The long wait is worth it and it came out really nice.
Great interview. I've been looking at Calabria, as well as other regions. I visited Sicily in October, Palermo, Cianciana, and Piazza Armerina, and checked out properties. I also want to check out Northern Italy b4 committing. The prices throughout Italy are incredible.
@@Karl__Pierre Actually, I think your approach was good; some decisions should be made on the spot. I also would have purchased that $5K house. I may sound a little hokey, but I think your purchase in Mussolmeli was fated. There's a reason you were led to purchase there.
The prices are way too low. Correct. That is compared to America and some other places where the housing prices are way, way too high. That is why it will all crash down unfortuantely. No concerns at all about the Italian housing market which is solid. Good luck and regards.
Northern Italy is cold and gloomy in winter! The Liguria coast has a similar mentality to the north and it’s not as poor and chaotic still as the south but it’s a more relaxed way to live compared to the USA and the UK (I live near London however I’m half Italian) and the weather is glorious!
Excellent and informative video from two fantastic and genuine people. I have been watching super savvy for a while but love the insight and perspective this particular video gave. Both of you are really stoking the flames of my dream of spending part of my retirement (along with la mia moglie) in southern Italy. I studied in Florence as a college student and Italy changed my life. Thank you both for sharing your experiences and promoting this unique part of the world. Grazie mille!
I absolutely loved this interview with Chris. I follow her channel (and now yours too 😀). We've considered buying something in Italy for a vacation home and may get dual citizenship, as both my husband and I are of Italian and Sicilian descent. I have some of my father's cousins that live in Reggio Calabria that we just visited last May and think it would be a wonderful location to consider. I look forward to seeing more of your content! Keep up the good work.
Been following Chris for sometimes. I like where she is, both in location and in perspective. I had lived in Germany and do speak German, French, Spanish and Polish, and sometimes American. I'm confident I can learn Italian.
Also , How did you learn french so easily ? I've been trying to get to B2 but its been so hard , and I'm even watching cartoons without the subtitles because thats what kind of helping me right now .
Hi, I think she REALLY understands Calabria. sometimes an "outside eye" can explain a place better than someone who was born there. It would be wonderful a video of yours to tell how safe and crime-free Calabria is. unfortunately many still believe is un-safe, which is a pity.
You are spot on that América is losing the importance of humanity. Many just care about their own benefit, money at any cost, no manners, no community, not caring to instill good values and morals in their children. It is very sad to see how horrible bullies children are, also adults with the disgusting political toxic environment. Hopefully countries and communities that have the good treasures of humanity do not “follow” American bad examples that seem to be spreading like poison.
I am retired man in my early 50's and ready to embark on a journey to change my scenary and grow my sense of wonder and make Italy my home. It's always been a favorite travel spot for me, and I even lived there 4 years while serving in the US Army. It's been like a home away from home for me. Like a sponge, I wanted to absorb every bit of it's culture and history while I was there, but 4 years was simply not enough....I want to go and invest and buy my first property there, the big questions are how and where.
Greetings, where I can tell you that's ultimately a decision that you will have to make. Personally I like Sicily, warm weather warm people. I have some properties there that you can checkout at cheaphousesinitaly.com and also you can book a call with me to talk about your plans and get some assistance.
U first need to decide...north or south? If its north..i can put u in contact with someone who can help u...but u need 2 know that up north..services are very fxnal and healthcare 2....But the south is breathtakingly beautiful.
It all sounds great, but the more people with $$ come, the more the locals struggle, especially because salaries and working conditions for locals in Italy are bad. It happened on Lake Como where I'm from, with all the tourism and rich foreigners buying, I could never afford a house near my parents now
Now but if those people didn't come all the locals wouldn't get the financial benefits of their property values rising. It's only an issue when one isn't parti
@TinoMartinelli you obviously don't understand. Property values increasing raises values for owners most of which are locals. Additionally if buying in towns where populations are declining, these investors/buyers are actually helping to keep the local economies from falling into a state of disrepair. Why are these same community workers choosing to rent vs buy? Why aren't locals building businesses? The idea that investors coming in and buying homes (notary and agent gets paid), repairing homes ( contractors, construction suppliers, local tradesman get paid), renting homes ( utility companies get paid as well as the workers of that company), and if turning into short term rentals ( unskilled labor and shops get paid) is somehow a bad idea really highlights the lack of understanding of how capitalism works. This is in no way a bad thing for the local communities. Perhaps in Venice or historic center Rome but certainly not in villages I'm Calabria
I love Chris I’ve been following her for awhile and I love her honesty, she’s real and I’m so glad you two got together, seeing your more directed video with her really shows her off, you’re both so inspiring and great! Thank you for this, and blessings to you both!
New sub here. Love what you're doing. I am at the final stage of finishing the renovation on my house (bought as a ruin) in Mérida Mexico. In the meantime I am still working in the US, specializing in selling floating houses on the river in Oregon. It's a beautiful life. As Auntie Mame said, "Life is a banquet". Love your content and production quality. You rock.
Stunning nature, relatively safe compared to Sicily and generally upscale, e.g. strict building laws with small structures, famous Costa Smeralda attracting a distinguished clientele ever since.
As a person from NYC with dual American/Italian citizenship I too would like to leave the touristy areas but I don't want to go more than 45mins-1hr from modern society. I'm interested in Lazio and abruzzo. Sicily is also an option
That’s a very nice compliment about Americans, because we have friends who are naysayers about our plan to move to Italy I think it’s a natural inclination to see the problems before the opportunities, when think of such a major life change It’s very scary to move to a place, where the biggest barrier is the language, and I completely understand that I took Italian in high school, so I’m looking forward to making new friends and immersing myself into learning the language, and the nuances of the varying dialects I’m so looking forward to moving to Minturno
I moved to Italy 5 years ago. My only regret is that I did not come sooner. I love the peace I have here. I don't watch American news casts and hear about all the BS in the USA. I wish you the best in your move to Italy
@@kdclothes Jesus, it might be my impression but the way some expat Americans and non -americans talk about the U.S, it must really be some kind of distopic place.
Excellent! Loved this video, and I'm so glad you two connected. I'm buying in Abruzzo (God willing) and looking forward to stimulating the economy there. KUTGW and blessings!!! :)
Great to hear on her experience in Italy. Im actually quite suprised how many people would like to live there. I would definitely like to spend more time in italy/Sicily when I retire, but i wouldn't live there personally. I wouldn't want to just get by with a certain amount of money as that would be just surviving, i would like enough to live a really good life. I think its €3,400 PM minimum requirement you need to have if you want to live there.
I think most people would agree but there are Americans retiring on less and that certainly can't support a decent life in the states so the objective is to say you can atleast survive here with a unique experience
@@Karl__Pierre yes I totally agree, if you only have a certain amount of money then you are going to choose the better lifestyle. I didn't realise America was that bad.
There’s always a multitude of people who want to learn or practice their English so you can do something enjoyable and sociable very part time and make a bit of extra money
@@rosadino6985I had to Leave USA. Florida is unaffordable for retirees. I live in Italy now. Quality of life is far better, medical care better, people are incredibly kind … all positive. Not missing anything. There are many young American families moving here too. Not just retirees.
Excellent interview. Southern Italy and Sicily are on my list but there's a concern. With climate change and the droughts across the Med Sea, how will they deal with the water shortage?
Been to Italy when they were still on the Lira. The Po River didn't almost dry up 22 years ago... same with the Loire (France) and Rhine (Germany). Switzerland didn't put thermo blankets on their ski slopes to prevent snow melt.
@@dezafinado Despite the news that the River Rhine is in a crisis due to “climate change” it has happened before, and many times. There are rocks in European rivers called Hunger Stones where people carved messages to mark the depth of the pain in the droughts. There are historical records of the Rhine drying up in spots so badly that people could walk across it with dry feet. In 1540 wells ran dry that had never run out of water.
@@dezafinado Climate change has been happening at the same pace since the beginning. People just don't pay attention to the past, obvious scientists either after reading what I posted. El Nino, polar shift, sun flares, and others contribute. To think man, in such a short time, can change the entire climate is arrogant.
Deep renovation costs 1000 Euros a square meter, +/- 20%. This price assumes that there are not unforeseen problems and that you find a honest contractor. Are there day care, elementary, junior high schools around? How close to home is the nearest parking slot? These warnings are the HONEST thing to do.
I haven't come close to 1000/sq meter. Even in the states. I'm not sure about Calabria but in the town I have purchased there are schools and a hospital, banks, markets, all one needs until 18. After 18 most go to university in Palermo Catania or mainland.
Calabria is in the earthquake central zone! The last earthquake was 2017. So think about that why it's so cheap. I was excited about Italy. I have family in Sicily. Sardinia is a safe area to live but more isolated.
Calabria is very underrated but the population is collapsing so not much to do apart from going beach and eating out and if you are younger than 60, it would be difficult to find people your age to be friends with.The lack of services and Italian burocratic mess are the biggest challenges for foreigners moving there and the language is not that easy.The people will be friendly and much more secure than people think as small crime is almost non existent.
This lady has amazing entreprising spirit. Who knows, maybe in a previous life she was from that area originally, and she/he emigrated to America because of poverty.
Found this channel today after I learned 1 EUR houses are available and I’m all in. I will try to educate myself more, the tricky thing is who to approach to buy these houses
I love the Italian people, small towns are great, I live in a small town in Nova Scotia but winters are cold and summers are 10 weeks maybe 12 weeks on a good year and cost of living is high with taxes, inflation on food and taxes!
AC is not expensive to install like in America. We have the split system and you can cool an entire floor with one blower. I spent about 2,000 euros purchasing and installing mine.
03:15 i agree about this, i'm italian and i grew up in Rome, when foreigners say 'wow you r lucky, amazing', i answer as a tourist for 2-3 weeks in Rome, Florence, Milan etc, it is surely beautiful, but for living it's another story. Smaller cities-towns, if you find the right ones, that's what i call paradise (cost of living, quality of life, basic services and connections wise, fresh food, amount of sun) :) But as for job opportunities, smaller realities might be problematic, so if you have a certain amount of money from a richer economy or you are retired having an income, good! enjoy :)
Hi! I am going to visit Scalea end of the week, we're sort of planning to get a closer look. I am concerned about medical services in that area, any good options available that you could recommend? Thanks!
It seems like a great opportunity for people with lots of dough. But I really tuned in to find is there somewhere on Earth that I could own a home that no one could take away. Btw my name is La Rocca. So I feel like I might have some buy-in haha!
I don't think lots of dough is needed and if so make the adjustments to make it happen. No matter where you are someone can take it all a matter of power I guess.
Hello I am interested in an apartment in Caltagirone. I see this apartment on Idealista. I have been in contact with someone through idealista asking questions about the place. I am positive they don’t speak English. The information I get is limited. Can you tell me how do I go about once I get there looking at the property in person and buying it?
I’m gonna suggest a little town very close to Rome about 40km (Roman metropolitan area is even close). It’s Castel San PIetro Romano, less there 1000 people on top of a mountain 700 meters from see level. The sea is pretty far 1 hour by car but the nature and the views are incredible. Down the mountain you can find all the services you can need. Houses prices are very cheap. The winter is a little bit cold but nothing compared with some US states or Canada. Have a look ;-)
1500 usd per month is even too much , a lot depends where u are staying , a lot . cities are way more expensive then small towns or villages . so considering the rent the main issue the same size of the apartment will be 30/40% less expensive from north to south ( south is cheaper ) and another 20/30% from city to villages or small towns .
It depends where in the north. In Piedmont and some areas of Lombardy/Emilia for example, you can find a lot of properties for cheap and with a better price/condition ratio than the South. Things is it's cold and it snows in winter and there is no sea if you like that.
I don't spend 1500 a month and I save money each month. Utilities can be tricky when it is hot as hades or cold as a witches bum. But I put in pellet stove and a wood burning stove in my fireplace in the kitchen. My house stays cozy. I also installed AC. It was not too expensive this past summer. and it was hot here.
like your channel and the video. Italy is on my list of places to retire behind France and Spain, but there is a reason why young Italians leave Italy especially small towns and old Americans move to Italy.
I am Italian and it’s not easy to just move there and make friends.Italians are very family oriented and don’t tend to look outside the family for friendships.So if you get left alone ….
Some of us are connected to a person who can get citizenship by descent and fell in love with Italy. I’m looking forward to retirement there for a healthier lifestyle and all that is Italy.
We want to move to Italy with the boys. It will be less expensive for college for our triplet boys. Could you help us find homes in villages where the boys could go to college from?
Hello, the universities are usually in larger cities. We can assist you with finding a home in Mussomeli but they could go to university In Palermo or Catania
@@Karl__Pierre What about Northern villages near countries with free colleges. Could people go across the border from Italy to go to school in another country? If so this could be another business idea for you, a way to afford college.
@@robinsunbird i think in France is for free or i dont know in Slovenia too but the education in Italy is not very expencive. However if in France is poosible, then you should go to Piedmont or Liguria regiona. In the country there are also universities which are located in pretty small cities and even villages but the most well known ones are in the biggest cities. IF you are not a big fun of beaches, i would suggest in the North of Italy.
I wish you had a few less ocmmercials, for me it was about every 3 minutes! Great video otherwise. At 30:10 I didn't know that- our history classes suck so.
You can claim italian citizenship through decent. Visit your Italian consulate in your country, you will need to prove your Italian ancestor was an italian citizen or had the right to claim italian citizenship when they were born. Once you have it you can move freely in italy. Have you checked if you are registered in italy by your father? A lot of Italians in the UK register their children at birth and have dual nationality.

@@chrisf1881 If they need a job either they speak Italian or work online or will have to find an Italian company that hires native English speakers. Opening a business can be a nightmare tax/time wise, although opportunities are everywhere in the world 🙂
there are no job opportunities; it is only good for retirees
Oh WOW! You guys did such a beautiful job! Thank you so much! I honestly had so much fun with you guys and really hope you will come back on vacation. Beautiful Karl!
Thank you! You made easy, I had a wonderful time as well. I'll certainly be back.
@@Karl__Pierre Fantastic! We can't wait!
How did I miss this collab? Glad you two made this possible. Love Chris and her channel. Thank you much for showing us the end result of your own project renovation. The long wait is worth it and it came out really nice.
Thank you! I'll be sharing the other property to just haven't finished the decorating
I love this video! I love Chris' enthusiasm and optimism. Inspiring stuff, Karl. Thanks for doing this interview 🙂
Thanks for watching. Chris is super cool and I love the way she thinks and expresses herself. Glad she did it.
Great interview. I've been looking at Calabria, as well as other regions. I visited Sicily in October, Palermo, Cianciana, and Piazza Armerina, and checked out properties. I also want to check out Northern Italy b4 committing. The prices throughout Italy are incredible.
My approach was more impulsive. What you're doing is the right.
@@Karl__Pierre Actually, I think your approach was good; some decisions should be made on the spot. I also would have purchased that $5K house. I may sound a little hokey, but I think your purchase in Mussolmeli was fated. There's a reason you were led to purchase there.
The prices are way too low. Correct. That is compared to America and some other places where the housing prices are way, way too high. That is why it will all crash down unfortuantely. No concerns at all about the Italian housing market which is solid. Good luck and regards.
Northern Italy is cold and gloomy in winter! The Liguria coast has a similar mentality to the north and it’s not as poor and chaotic still as the south but it’s a more relaxed way to live compared to the USA and the UK (I live near London however I’m half Italian) and the weather is glorious!
I have thought about moving to Palermo where my ancestors are from. They are also from Calatafami, Vita, Trapani.
Excellent and informative video from two fantastic and genuine people. I have been watching super savvy for a while but love the insight and perspective this particular video gave. Both of you are really stoking the flames of my dream of spending part of my retirement (along with la mia moglie) in southern Italy. I studied in Florence as a college student and Italy changed my life. Thank you both for sharing your experiences and promoting this unique part of the world. Grazie mille!
Our pleasure!
I absolutely loved this interview with Chris. I follow her channel (and now yours too 😀). We've considered buying something in Italy for a vacation home and may get dual citizenship, as both my husband and I are of Italian and Sicilian descent. I have some of my father's cousins that live in Reggio Calabria that we just visited last May and think it would be a wonderful location to consider. I look forward to seeing more of your content! Keep up the good work.
Wonderful! Chris is awesome and is a great wealth of inspiration and ideas.
Been following Chris for sometimes. I like where she is, both in location and in perspective.
I had lived in Germany and do speak German, French, Spanish and Polish, and sometimes American. I'm confident I can learn Italian.
Hahaha sometimes American
Also , How did you learn french so easily ? I've been trying to get to B2 but its been so hard , and I'm even watching cartoons without the subtitles because thats what kind of helping me right now .
Because Italy is dream country for every person who love peace, beauty, mountain, sea, histrory, culture that's why everyone flocking Italy🇧🇩❤🇮🇹
Yes I agree
A really great interview of Chris ... it was great seeing you guys out in Santa Domenica Talao putting this together!
Hi Peter it was a pleasure meeting you as well. Thank you for the kind words and hospitality
Hi, I think she REALLY understands Calabria. sometimes an "outside eye" can explain a place better than someone who was born there.
It would be wonderful a video of yours to tell how safe and crime-free Calabria is. unfortunately many still believe is un-safe, which is a pity.
I love Chris, I'm her super-fan, she's a great ambassador of Italy in the world. Good job and collab.
Nice!
Thank you! That is so sweet!
You are spot on that América is losing the importance of humanity. Many just care about their own benefit, money at any cost, no manners, no community, not caring to instill good values and morals in their children. It is very sad to see how horrible bullies children are, also adults with the disgusting political toxic environment.
Hopefully countries and communities that have the good treasures of humanity do not “follow” American bad examples that seem to be spreading like poison.
Yeah, and it Gets Old and Boring; but at the Same Time We have Some Conveniences that You don't find anywhere else in the World.
It depends on the race and the background of those people. I know Black Americans fit this the most.
Yes Democrats are destroying America
I am retired man in my early 50's and ready to embark on a journey to change my scenary and grow my sense of wonder and make Italy my home. It's always been a favorite travel spot for me, and I even lived there 4 years while serving in the US Army. It's been like a home away from home for me. Like a sponge, I wanted to absorb every bit of it's culture and history while I was there, but 4 years was simply not enough....I want to go and invest and buy my first property there, the big questions are how and where.
Greetings, where I can tell you that's ultimately a decision that you will have to make. Personally I like Sicily, warm weather warm people. I have some properties there that you can checkout at cheaphousesinitaly.com and also you can book a call with me to talk about your plans and get some assistance.
U first need to decide...north or south? If its north..i can put u in contact with someone who can help u...but u need 2 know that up north..services are very fxnal and healthcare 2....But the south is breathtakingly beautiful.
Same here!
@@User-gj3rk
❤need that info. Please.
It all sounds great, but the more people with $$ come, the more the locals struggle, especially because salaries and working conditions for locals in Italy are bad. It happened on Lake Como where I'm from, with all the tourism and rich foreigners buying, I could never afford a house near my parents now
Has Lake Como always been expensive or has it changed in recent years?
Now but if those people didn't come all the locals wouldn't get the financial benefits of their property values rising. It's only an issue when one isn't parti
I disagree. The more foreigners that buy houses in Italy ( they usually buy cheap ,so need restoring) the more work for locals. Win win situation 😂
@@angelaberni8873 look at what happened in Portugal, with their retirees and digital nomad visas... Spoiler alert: it is not good for locals
@TinoMartinelli you obviously don't understand. Property values increasing raises values for owners most of which are locals. Additionally if buying in towns where populations are declining, these investors/buyers are actually helping to keep the local economies from falling into a state of disrepair. Why are these same community workers choosing to rent vs buy? Why aren't locals building businesses? The idea that investors coming in and buying homes (notary and agent gets paid), repairing homes ( contractors, construction suppliers, local tradesman get paid), renting homes ( utility companies get paid as well as the workers of that company), and if turning into short term rentals ( unskilled labor and shops get paid) is somehow a bad idea really highlights the lack of understanding of how capitalism works. This is in no way a bad thing for the local communities. Perhaps in Venice or historic center Rome but certainly not in villages I'm Calabria
I love Chris! What a great start for an interview ❤
Thank you I'll let the editor know.
@@Karl__Pierre and Chris 😜
I love Chris I’ve been following her for awhile and I love her honesty, she’s real and I’m so glad you two got together, seeing your more directed video with her really shows her off, you’re both so inspiring and great! Thank you for this, and blessings to you both!
Thank you, that's so nice of you. Chris is great. I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
New sub here. Love what you're doing. I am at the final stage of finishing the renovation on my house (bought as a ruin) in Mérida Mexico. In the meantime I am still working in the US, specializing in selling floating houses on the river in Oregon. It's a beautiful life. As Auntie Mame said, "Life is a banquet". Love your content and production quality. You rock.
Hey do you have any footage of what you're doing in both places?
Indeed sounds beautiful
What an inspirational lady - a true go-getter! Loved it!
Indeed
Two of my favorite content creators! Great job!!
Wow, thanks!
Great interview! Love Chris!
LOL, I think it's great to see Chris on here. I came over because of SuperSavvy... Was watching there and the algorithm sent me to ENTP 😉
Welcome aboard!
Wie are so happy on the Island of Sardinia ❤ Marvellous nature, carribean sea, welcoming locals. It can‘t be too expensive - Keeps the flock away.
I haven't been and would like to visit its on my list how do you feel the culture varies from Sicily or Italy?
Stunning nature, relatively safe compared to Sicily and generally upscale, e.g. strict building laws with small structures, famous Costa Smeralda attracting a distinguished clientele ever since.
@@Karl__Pierredo you mean Mediterranean sea or am I missing something...the Sardinia I know is just above Sicily...
With 3400 $ per month you would live a good life even in downtown Milan, imagine in the south.
I just love your storytelling, and it's nice when you punctuate with a couple seconds of film now and then.
I'll let the editor know
Great Interview with Chris....We are also renovating in Calabria, sorry we missed you
Hey Dan, yeah this time our schedules didn't match hut certainly next time.
I live in America but my family came from Altomonte ... do you know that town?
.
My family came from Sicily, Calabria, and Napoli and would love to do this in retirement, which is like next year.
Nice you can qualify for a retirement visa and citizenship by decent
This is pretty awesome with some great information. She gave some pretty sage advice about how to view people judging your choices.
Indeed she did. Glad you enjoyed the video
I love Pizzo, Zambrone and Tropea. Capo Vaticano coastline is gorgeous. Ive been to San Nicola Arcella as well and Praia a Mare.
Nice
Love this video. Thank you! We did the same but bought in the medieval town of ORTE in central Italy
Thanks for watching!
Wonderful interview!!
Grazie mille
This Lady is just so nice to listen to! Like people like her around me.
She's cool
thank you! love you! thank you!!! please stay blessed! thrive! I am here for you!
Thank you! You too!
As a person from NYC with dual American/Italian citizenship I too would like to leave the touristy areas but I don't want to go more than 45mins-1hr from modern society. I'm interested in Lazio and abruzzo. Sicily is also an option
Nice
That’s a very nice compliment about Americans, because we have friends who are naysayers about our plan to move to Italy
I think it’s a natural inclination to see the problems before the opportunities, when think of such a major life change
It’s very scary to move to a place, where the biggest barrier is the language, and I completely understand that
I took Italian in high school, so I’m looking forward to making new friends and immersing myself into learning the language, and the nuances of the varying dialects
I’m so looking forward to moving to Minturno
It is for naysayers who can't do it
I moved to Italy 5 years ago. My only regret is that I did not come sooner. I love the peace I have here. I don't watch American news casts and hear about all the BS in the USA. I wish you the best in your move to Italy
@@kdclothes Jesus, it might be my impression but the way some expat Americans and non -americans talk about the U.S, it must really be some kind of distopic place.
Excellent! Loved this video, and I'm so glad you two connected. I'm buying in Abruzzo (God willing) and looking forward to stimulating the economy there. KUTGW and blessings!!! :)
Thank you!!
I absolutely love what you're doing. Your videos are informational and inspirational. thank you so much 💓
You are so welcome!
I’m late to the party🎉 I’m about to purchase my first house in Abruzzo. I would love to do a collab video about Abruzzo! Wishing you all the best!!!
Sure thing. Shoot me an email at socialmedia@entplife.com to coordinate
I moved to Abruzzo 5 years ago. I absolutely love it here. People are kind and helpful and warm. I hope you love it here too.
I can relate to this video. I bought a house in Tocco da Casauria Abruzzo last year. I also have an unfinished second floor with future plans.
That is awesome!
Great to hear on her experience in Italy. Im actually quite suprised how many people would like to live there. I would definitely like to spend more time in italy/Sicily when I retire, but i wouldn't live there personally. I wouldn't want to just get by with a certain amount of money as that would be just surviving, i would like enough to live a really good life. I think its €3,400 PM minimum requirement you need to have if you want to live there.
I think most people would agree but there are Americans retiring on less and that certainly can't support a decent life in the states so the objective is to say you can atleast survive here with a unique experience
@@Karl__Pierre yes I totally agree, if you only have a certain amount of money then you are going to choose the better lifestyle. I didn't realise America was that bad.
With 3400 € you would have a super good life there for 2 persons.
There’s always a multitude of people who want to learn or practice their English so you can do something enjoyable and sociable very part time and make a bit of extra money
@@rosadino6985I had to
Leave USA. Florida is unaffordable for retirees.
I live in Italy now. Quality of life is far better, medical care better, people are incredibly kind … all positive. Not missing anything.
There are many young American families moving here too. Not just retirees.
Great info and video, thank you!
Appreciate the feedback
Wow, I really hope you can do a before and after for her property and include footage from this video to compare. Would be amazing to see the results.
Maybe I can coordinate something with her.
Excellent interview. Southern Italy and Sicily are on my list but there's a concern. With climate change and the droughts across the Med Sea, how will they deal with the water shortage?
I assume desalination and water rationing
The same as they did 22 years ago when I was there. Oh, but we didn't have Climate change to blame. lol, people have short memories.
Been to Italy when they were still on the Lira. The Po River didn't almost dry up 22 years ago... same with the Loire (France) and Rhine (Germany). Switzerland didn't put thermo blankets on their ski slopes to prevent snow melt.
@@dezafinado Despite the news that the River Rhine is in a crisis due to “climate change” it has happened before, and many times. There are rocks in European rivers called Hunger Stones where people carved messages to mark the depth of the pain in the droughts. There are historical records of the Rhine drying up in spots so badly that people could walk across it with dry feet. In 1540 wells ran dry that had never run out of water.
@@dezafinado Climate change has been happening at the same pace since the beginning. People just don't pay attention to the past, obvious scientists either after reading what I posted. El Nino, polar shift, sun flares, and others contribute. To think man, in such a short time, can change the entire climate is arrogant.
WHAT A DREAM!!! andiamo in calabria
Haha
Deep renovation costs 1000 Euros a square meter, +/- 20%. This price assumes that there are not unforeseen problems and that you find a honest contractor.
Are there day care, elementary, junior high schools around?
How close to home is the nearest parking slot?
These warnings are the HONEST thing to do.
I haven't come close to 1000/sq meter. Even in the states. I'm not sure about Calabria but in the town I have purchased there are schools and a hospital, banks, markets, all one needs until 18. After 18 most go to university in Palermo Catania or mainland.
Calabria is in the earthquake central zone! The last earthquake was 2017. So think about that why it's so cheap. I was excited about Italy. I have family in Sicily. Sardinia is a safe area to live but more isolated.
Valuable comment...thanks...👍
What a Spirit!!! Adventurous! Congratulations! You are on the top of life! 🥰👏👏👏
What's her channel?
@supersavvytravelers
So nice to see this video! Thank you all!
Our pleasure!
Calabria is very underrated but the population is collapsing so not much to do apart from going beach and eating out and if you are younger than 60, it would be difficult to find people your age to be friends with.The lack of services and Italian burocratic mess are the biggest challenges for foreigners moving there and the language is not that easy.The people will be friendly and much more secure than people think as small crime is almost non existent.
You can find fault and silver lining in all things
I share with this lady my love for Italy so much, that my daughter wants now to study there
Haha nice
Loved your video and sharing your knowledge and experiences in Calabrian. I envy you in all good ways! Best of luck!
Thank you! You too!
This lady has amazing entreprising spirit. Who knows, maybe in a previous life she was from that area originally, and she/he emigrated to America because of poverty.
Could be.
I think you nailed it!
Brilliant video.
Thank you
Great interview, great guest!
Amazing editing my friend. Good job.
Thanks man hope all is well on your end. What have you been up to.
Thank you for this remarkable commentary.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for these wonderful insights.
You are so welcome
thank you for this video, I have never traveled out of my country and this video that you did helps me to see what it would be like to go there.
Thank you for the kind words
I am doing this this year. I visited Sicily and planning to go back this year to acquire a property 🙏🤞🤞🙏
Where in Sicily?
@@Karl__Pierre I like Modica
@@Karl__Pierre but It could change.
@@carlocanales1164 We are close to Modica now 🙂
Found this channel today after I learned 1 EUR houses are available and I’m all in. I will try to educate myself more, the tricky thing is who to approach to buy these houses
Check my site Www.cheaphousesinitaly.com and casa1euro.it
17:08 what do those 1500 euros comprise, except for food?
Phone, internet, utilities, transportation, leisure, healthcare with money leftover for travel within EU
@@Karl__Pierredo you have a video on health care in Italy? How does it work?
@@Karl__Pierreso you don't pay any extra yearly taxes on the house, once you live there?
My family was from Calabria and Catanzaro. I wish I could afford to buy a home there and move.
I think you can, why do you feel you can't afford it?
Chris ran across this FAB. Great interview. Isn't that Karl who promotes Sicily?
Yes!
I love the Italian people, small towns are great, I live in a small town in Nova Scotia but winters are cold and summers are 10 weeks maybe 12 weeks on a good year and cost of living is high with taxes, inflation on food and taxes!
Thanks for sharing!
Might be a weird question but is there really no AC there? I've really grown accustomed to having it, especially when trying to sleep
There is you just install it
If u like the AC..u can put it in ur house...but in general ITALIANS are not AC CRAZY
It is also expensive - electricity prices are high in Italy at the moment
AC is not expensive to install like in America. We have the split system and you can cool an entire floor with one blower. I spent about 2,000 euros purchasing and installing mine.
I really like the movies you make, calm but also cut to the chase.
Thanks
03:15 i agree about this, i'm italian and i grew up in Rome, when foreigners say 'wow you r lucky, amazing', i answer as a tourist for 2-3 weeks in Rome, Florence, Milan etc, it is surely beautiful, but for living it's another story. Smaller cities-towns, if you find the right ones, that's what i call paradise (cost of living, quality of life, basic services and connections wise, fresh food, amount of sun) :) But as for job opportunities, smaller realities might be problematic, so if you have a certain amount of money from a richer economy or you are retired having an income, good! enjoy :)
Awesome
Hi! I am going to visit Scalea end of the week, we're sort of planning to get a closer look. I am concerned about medical services in that area, any good options available that you could recommend? Thanks!
Just replied via what's app. Chris might be the better person to talk to about healthcare
Wow! I’m planning a move to Calabria!
What's your timeline
It seems like a great opportunity for people with lots of dough. But I really tuned in to find is there somewhere on Earth that I could own a home that no one could take away. Btw my name is La Rocca. So I feel like I might have some buy-in haha!
I don't think lots of dough is needed and if so make the adjustments to make it happen. No matter where you are someone can take it all a matter of power I guess.
I watch LEAW channel. They just bought a home in Italy for $1. You have to fix up. Sweet little towns with beautiful views. They are in Sicily.
I will check it out
Just subscribed to your you tube looking forward to all the information that you share
Thank you.
Hello I am interested in an apartment in Caltagirone. I see this apartment on Idealista. I have been in contact with someone through idealista asking questions about the place. I am positive they don’t speak English. The information I get is limited. Can you tell me how do I go about once I get there looking at the property in person and buying it?
Go there in person and find an English speaking agent or translator to.assist
I’m gonna suggest a little town very close to Rome about 40km (Roman metropolitan area is even close). It’s Castel San PIetro Romano, less there 1000 people on top of a mountain 700 meters from see level. The sea is pretty far 1 hour by car but the nature and the views are incredible. Down the mountain you can find all the services you can need. Houses prices are very cheap. The winter is a little bit cold but nothing compared with some US states or Canada. Have a look ;-)
Thank you
30:13 I recall a friend’s Dad telling me about the affection for Americans 💖
That's how it is. Most people are cool like in all parts in the world. A few rotten apples exist but overall these smaller towns are really charming.
I agree. If we believed everything i. the media/ on certain websites; we’d never travel anywhere.
1500 usd per month is even too much , a lot depends where u are staying , a lot . cities are way more expensive then small towns or villages . so considering the rent the main issue the same size of the apartment will be 30/40% less expensive from north to south ( south is cheaper ) and another 20/30% from city to villages or small towns .
Too much when compared to what?
It depends where in the north. In Piedmont and some areas of Lombardy/Emilia for example, you can find a lot of properties for cheap and with a better price/condition ratio than the South. Things is it's cold and it snows in winter and there is no sea if you like that.
I don't spend 1500 a month and I save money each month. Utilities can be tricky when it is hot as hades or cold as a witches bum. But I put in pellet stove and a wood burning stove in my fireplace in the kitchen. My house stays cozy. I also installed AC. It was not too expensive this past summer. and it was hot here.
like your channel and the video. Italy is on my list of places to retire behind France and Spain, but there is a reason why young Italians leave Italy especially small towns and old Americans move to Italy.
Pace and job opportunities
No way 🥹my kind of place! I love 💕 helping people 🙏🏼
Thanks for watching!
I WAS in calabria, is 2017, amazing region, delicious produce, mozzarella , fruit, we stayed in Tropea
Mozzarella....oh man so amazing
@@Karl__Pierre they make few times a day. Burrata!!!
I am Italian and it’s not easy to just move there and make friends.Italians are very family oriented and don’t tend to look outside the family for friendships.So if you get left alone ….
That hasn't been the experience of anyone I know
How to find out s out her AIRBNB I would like to stay there.
Check out her channel I'm sure she has links to it
Some of us are connected to a person who can get citizenship by descent and fell in love with Italy. I’m looking forward to retirement there for a healthier lifestyle and all that is Italy.
Hopefully it all goes as you planned
We want to move to Italy with the boys. It will be less expensive for college for our triplet boys. Could you help us find homes in villages where the boys could go to college from?
Hello, the universities are usually in larger cities. We can assist you with finding a home in Mussomeli but they could go to university In Palermo or Catania
@@Karl__Pierre What about Northern villages near countries with free colleges. Could people go across the border from Italy to go to school in another country? If so this could be another business idea for you, a way to afford college.
@@robinsunbird i think in France is for free or i dont know in Slovenia too but the education in Italy is not very expencive. However if in France is poosible, then you should go to Piedmont or Liguria regiona. In the country there are also universities which are located in pretty small cities and even villages but the most well known ones are in the biggest cities. IF you are not a big fun of beaches, i would suggest in the North of Italy.
It looks like Italy is a good place for a family. Can you talk about school/education there? What is the plan for your daughter?
Hi Jeff. I am not relocating my family there.
@@Karl__Pierre Ah ok. So you are staying in Florida with a business venture in Italy?
@Jeff H nope. Most likely Medellin Colombia or Valencia Spain or Rio De Janeiro. Probability is favoring Colombia
@@Karl__Pierre Interesting. Thank you for sharing. I was also looking at Spain and Portugal before seeing your channel about Italy.
I wish you had a few less ocmmercials, for me it was about every 3 minutes! Great video otherwise. At 30:10 I didn't know that- our history classes suck so.
TH-cam trying to get that money lol. I don't choose the commercial placements
My dad was born sicily so I am a automatic citizen. Do you have a email of your lawyer in sicily I can contact?
For immigration?
@@Karl__Pierre yes, to start process. Is it hard?
You can claim italian citizenship through decent. Visit your Italian consulate in your country, you will need to prove your Italian ancestor was an italian citizen or had the right to claim italian citizenship when they were born. Once you have it you can move freely in italy. Have you checked if you are registered in italy by your father? A lot of Italians in the UK register their children at birth and have dual nationality.
Great job brother. Keep it up!
Thanks! Will do!
Super educational, 🙏
Thanks
I am not sure you understand that you are saying we went there. Where is down there?? You have not said the name of the town??
Both are covered in the first 36 seconds of the video. Calabria Region, town Santa Domenica
A real Lady with a unquenchable thirst and passion for the good life
