My wife and I are starting to plan our move to Italy and are hoping to make the move in a year or two but we have a lot of questions.
I'm a 100% disabled military veteran and my wife and I both have Tricare/ChampVA medical insurance and receive about $3300/mth from the VA. By the time we move we will have no debt and hope to have at least $50k in the bank before we start selling off everything else. We don't plan to work for an income and don't have children. I'll be 52 and my wife will be 42 when we make the move. That's our background.
We'd like to stay close, but not super close, to Naples so we can use the Naval base there for healthcare and buying things on base. Our thoughts are purchasing a country house that has a couple of acres, traveling and getting involved in the community.
We'd like any recommendations but would like to know if our income will be sufficient. I know that depends on us but we live modestly. How hard is it to get visas to stay if we don't plan on working? I've heard that the Naples area isn't all that great.....any feedback on that?
Thank you,
David / Sonia
