I'm thinking of moving to Florence Italy in a few years.?

Question

Would it be a good move? im from Australia. Could you give me some tips or websites to check out please.

Answer 1

Australia and the US are two of the harder places to move to Italy from. Unless you're independently wealthy, you'll need to get a work visa. To get the visa, you have to have a job already lined up and the proper paperwork from the company. You cannot apply for the visa while you're in Italy. It's a lot of preparation and effort to make the move, but it is worth it. Florence is a wonderful place. I've been living about two hours north for the past 8 years.

Someone else has already given you the ex-pat sites.
