  • Join us on an exciting journey of house hunting in Italy as we reveal our plans to relocate and share our quest for the perfect home. In this video, we dive into the enchanting world of Italian real estate, discussing the type of house we're seeking and the thrilling process of moving and buying property in Italy. From rustic countryside villas to charming coastal retreats, we explore the diverse options available and which regions we're looking in. We also chat about the challenges with moving our cat "Micia" to Europe, the taxes and cost of living in Italy, as well as the struggle to renovate an Italian property!

    My husband and I are Canadians that bought a place in the Lazio region last year. We travel back and forth a couple times a year with our two kids. We were frustrated with the "rat race" and needed something more and to unwind from our life. A bottle of wine in, we contacted an international lawyer in Italy and put in an offer sight unseen. Not only do we love it but our kids do as well.
    I would recommend doing it sooner then later as all the legal things take forever to approve and it took us 4 months from offer to keys. We vote for Lazio region, for us it is 1 hour to the beach, 1 hour to Rome and 1 hour to the airport! Bonus is the great weather and scenery!

      It's not Italy itself, It's Italians that slow down when they can because as far as cities like Milan, Rome, Florence, Genoa, Turin etc go, they can be as active and stressfull as big cities in USA. Fact Is that most people in Italy work to live and dont live to work.

    I love that you are thinking of making a move while you are so young and not tied down with kids in school and 9 to 5 jobs. I hope you eventually find the perfect place for you, but I'm not sure there is a truly perfect place. I say this because I have lived in both England and the U.S. several times and, when I was living in the US, I missed things in England, and when I was in the UK, I missed things in the US. That is just something people who move around adapt to. But you are young and this is the perfect time to test the water. I wish you all the best and I look forward to following your journey through TH-cam. In bocca al lupo!

    She’ll be ok on the flight. I’ve flown w mine a few times. Get a soft carrier for the plane so she’s by your feet, near you. Do a private screening w security, but know they cling to you when they’re frightened. Bring rubber gloves and wipes in case of an accident. I have also heard vets can prescribe anti-anxiety meds to chill them out. Mines a very anxious cat, but she’s done it a few times now. However, it is traumatizing. Cats don’t want to fly.

It is a spectacular place, not far from the seaside, set in a Natural Reserve and surrounded by beautiful, gentle mountains. Lots of foreign people have settle down here in the last decades, and many people have their own projects of bio-farming in the area. If ever you like to have more information, or you need help for finding some possible solutions, I am at your disposal! I would actually love to have a personal exchange with you.

    Get a Feliway collar (pheromone) collar for Micia to help with her anxiety, the trip and her quarantine period, you can also get a plug in diffuser for your home for her to settle in. I can’t wait for the new adventure. 💖Michelle from 🇦🇺

    Always so exciting to watch your videos from Italy. You both look so peaceful and at home in Italy. There is CBD for animals and it calms them down without hurting them. You might want to look into that. Love to both of you 🤗🤗

    For Micia. Like others said here. Put a carrier out in the house. Put fave blankie toys & treats in it.
    She will “get used to it” as a thing in her home. GER FEELIWAY SPRAY! It is a spray for the carrier…
    Also spray some on your hands and clothes…then pet Micia near glands & her paws so it absorbs.
    The Feeliway is supposed to mimic the pheromones of a lactating mama kitty. It worked pretty well when I flew my kitties from NYC to San Diego and back. Also if kitty is panting on plane bc she is nervous keep putting water on ber tongue so she doesnt dehydrate. At the airport…drape a light blankie over the carrier while in crowded places. The less sensory overload the less stressed she is gonna be. She can do it! Im so excited for you guys! 🎉😻🥰

    I brought 7 rescue dogs from Egypt to the UK that I saved as puppies and their mother and my own labrador. One of the main things was to get them used to their individual carry cases and my labrador had to have his own made for him with wood as couldn’t buy one big enough. I kept the “travel cages” dotted around the house mainly living room with blankets inside and their teddies and doors open etc so they were nothing to them and familiar being near them. I also like
    something called Zylkene which you can buy online or major pet stores which is a milk hormone which has a really calming effect and totally natural and just makes more stressful situations a lot better. My vet recommends this too for travel or fireworks type of situations as well.

    I chose an apartment in Alberobello near my relatives. It is a tourist town and has many cultural activities to entertain the tourists, but I live in the area away from the trulli. The cost for a six room apartment was very inexpensive. Puglia has beautiful beaches, beautiful caves, and so much history.

    You two are loving cat parents! Relax! As a retired military family our dog and cat moved everywhere with us. As long as we were with them, they were happy. Train Micia gradually to the carrier, to walks with the harness/collar, and to car rides. After a bit she will think it is normal and she'll go with the flow. We once travelled 5,000 miles in the car and would walk our cat along with our dog and she was fine. Go slowly and enjoy each day, one day at a time.

    LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your videos and feel we have so much in common!
    We plan to move to Tuscany in the next couple of years (we’re an American and a European currently in CT).
    Our cat Monty is about the same age as Micia, and we’re also wondering/concerned about the flight to Italy (considered boat as well but agree with Jessi that it would be too long and he couldn’t be with us).
    We were able to get our cat acclimated to a harness in about two weeks, so we’re sure you’ll do fine with that. We’re just a little worried about the length of the travel: car ride to the airport, then the flight, car ride again - it adds up to a lot of hours. Also having him be stuck in a carrier on the plane (for him, that will be the worst as he likes to walk around). With possible constant meowing to get out of the carrier, the other passengers may complain and there’s no way we’ll allow him to be put in cargo. Interested to get some pointers from you with how Micia does when the time comes!
    All the best! It’s so exciting for you!

    We travelled with our cat on a 13hour flight,when we moved to Europe, microchip, vaccines, we needed the necessary documentations from our AVA. It is a process and not all airlines allow pet in cabin. She needed to have a special carrier that fit below the seat upon takeoff and landing (we found a plushy one comfy for her). Nappy for one she adapted well. She did long car trips and travelled on a plane. She has her pet passport and crosses borders with us. So totally understand you both. Having said that every cat have their own personalities. Some take a little more time to adjust it will be fine.

    Mischa is adorable and so well loved and understands. Kitties hate to move….think about a natural tranquilizer or one prescribed by the vet for the trip to cut her anxiety. I believe she can sit with you on various airlines. You may need to buy her a seat. Check it out! 🩵 you guys and your life journey!

London is an amazing city, Great Britain is fabulous and British people are adorable and polite, but I missed my country too much! Now I am married, I have two kids, we live in my hometown in Piedmont (have a look at Rassa: it’s paradise on earth) but we also spend a lot of time in our second home in Torgnon.

    I would think your cat will need to be in a pet carrier. Start training her by using a carrier and walking around the local mall with crowds of people . Do it several times and go longer each time. Also leave the carrier around the house open for her to go in and out of. Put a favorite toy inside. Try putting her food bowl or a treat inside.
