I am an Italian-American and hold dual nationality with Italy. I am going to Italy in November and will be spending most of my time in Florence. I'm on a fact finding mission to see if it's realistic for me to live there. my preference would be to live elsewhere, but other than Milan it seems to be the only place where I can find studio space at an affordable price to continue with my jewelry making. I have been gathering information from the Internet regarding the things I need to know about making a move to Italy. I'm hoping some generous person could give me firsthand information about their move to Italy. Specifics I'd like to know include: Health insurance, pricing for public and private.
Renting an apartment vs buying an apartment currently I own a condo. Do I need to purchase appliances?
How costly would it be to ship the contents of a one bedroom apartment to Italy?
Tips on finding apartments. Utility costs.
Neighborhoods to consider in Florence?
Banking and transferring money from USA.
Reliable sources of information for answers to my questions, other than those who are able to respond to m y questions.
Cautionary tales? Positive experiences?
Would appreciate your help.
Frank
