What is a typical expat home or apartment like in Italy?
We asked expats what a typical home or apartment in Italy is like. They answered...
"We have a large country property with a 200 year-old stone farmhouse on it that we restored. We have a 100% organic 'azienda agricola' with 500 producing olive trees and 250 citrus trees with other ornamental trees and two natural water springs on it. It is heavenly. The other expats in the area are a mix of apartment dwellers and countryside lovers like us (there are just a few of us)," remarked another expat in Catanzaro, Italy.
"Let's say this answer depends A LOT on your budget and where you decide to live in the city. And if you can find something. Bolognesi have found a cash cow with Airbnb," said a member in Bologna, Italy.
