Florence is not as big as other Italian cities, but it has everything you need.

3. Tuscany

  • If you want to escape from the exciting city life, Tuscany is the perfect place. Home to stunning beaches that stretch alongside cliffs and the most spectacular coastline, Tuscany is often referred to as Classic Italy.
    This region of Italy is rich in Renaissance culture and art. If you're the more artistic type, one of the many "art cities" in Tuscany (such as Pisa, Arezzo, and Siena) might be the perfect place for you! Many medieval hamlets and villages in Tuscany burst with historical legacy, with countless churches, monasteries, castles, palaces, museums, art galleries, and fortifications.
  • Like Rome, life in Tuscany is relatively slow. There is also a large ex-pat community, making it easy for newcomers to settle in. A taste of home and some special talk!

4. Sardinia

  • Sardinia offers ex-pats the ultimate island experience, with 2,000 kilometers of white sand and the most transparent waters in Italy - what more could you dream of? Here, you can find an array of sandy and rocky beaches, gorgeous cliffs, and shaded coves.
    This is a popular place for ex-pats as there is plenty to do. Foodies and wine lovers come from far and wide to enjoy Sardinia's famous culinary culture and award-winning vineyards.

  • Sardinia might be your place if you are looking for a home rich in history and culture. Home to over 10,000 historical sites and monuments dating back to the Nuragic civilization, there is plenty to explore.

    Milan is a little faster than Rome and Florence, so if you're looking for the real deal with the hustle and bustle of city life, this sounds like the perfect home for you.
