Benvenuti! Welcome! Thanks for joining along on our family’s “avventura” in Italy. In 2018 we picked up our family of 3 kids and 2 dogs and left Chicago to head off for an adventure together in Turin. We hope our stories help you with your own adventures.
A good place to start might be to read a bit about our family in Our Story. Or, if you’re the type who just wants to get to the good stuff, head to the detailed Travel Guides. Finally, if you’re inspired like us to do a big change in your own life, check out the Expat Logistics section to read all the details of how we got here. Enjoy and let us know what you think!
Also check out La Dolce Vita (The Sweet Life), our blog. Living in Italy has become an ever-growing collection of stories. There are stories about us, about the things we’ve done, and about the Italian people we meet every day. There are also reflections on how life is different, and in some ways, how it is the same. We will periodically add more stories here. If there’s anything you think we should write about, let us know!
Our sense of adventure and brought us to this experience and we love sharing our stories. We would love to hear your story as well. Share with us your ideas, experiences and questions!
