What is life like as an expat in your area?
When we asked people living abroad what life is like in their areas and how people spend their time, they said...
"Life for expats and digital nomads in Taormina is often described as a dream come true. The small town offers a relaxed lifestyle with a rich history and stunning views of the Mediterranean Sea. The locals are friendly and welcoming, making it easy for newcomers to feel at home. The town is filled with charming streets, ancient ruins, and beautiful gardens, providing plenty of inspiration and relaxation for those working remotely. The local cuisine is exceptional, with a variety of fresh seafood, pasta, and local wines to enjoy. Despite its small size, Taormina has a vibrant cultural scene with numerous festivals, concerts, and art exhibitions throughout the year. The language barrier can be a challenge for some, but many locals and business owners speak English, and there are also language schools for those who want to learn Italian. The cost of living can be high compared to other parts of Italy, particularly for housing. However, the quality of life, the beauty of the surroundings, and the warm, sunny climate make it a popular choice for expats and digital nomads. Internet connectivity is generally good, and there are several coworking spaces and cafes for those who prefer not to work from home. Public transportation is reliable, but many find it more convenient to rent a car for exploring the surrounding areas. Overall, Taormina offers a unique blend of relaxation, culture, and natural beauty that makes it an attractive destination for expats and digital nomads," wrote a member who made the move to Taormina, Italy.
