6 Reasons You’ll Love & 6 you'll Hate Rural Italy

Описание: In this video, I'm sharing the real, unfiltered pros and cons of living in rural Italy based on my personal experience.
From the slower pace of life and incredible food culture to the challenges of adapting to a different way of doing things, I cover it all. Whether you're dreaming of an Italian relocation or just curious about expat life, this honest breakdown will help you understand what to expect.

What I Cover:
❌ The Cons: bureaucracy, limited public transportation, cultural differences, and personal space (or lack thereof!)

✅ The Pros: authentic connections, amazing local food, the art of slow living, guilt-free downtime, and bidets (yes, really!)

Plus, I share my reflections on what it means to feel stuck between two cultures and why the "perfect place" doesn't exist—but the right mindset makes all the difference.
