"Life for expats and digital nomads in Sanremo is often described as relaxed and enjoyable. The city offers a pleasant Mediterranean climate, beautiful beaches, and a vibrant cultural scene. The cost of living is relatively affordable compared to other Italian cities, making it an attractive destination for those who work remotely. Expats and digital nomads can enjoy the city's rich history, stunning architecture, and numerous festivals, including the famous Sanremo Music Festival. The city is also known for its casino, which is one of the oldest in Italy, and its old town, known as La Pigna, which is full of charming narrow streets and small squares. The local cuisine is another highlight, with plenty of fresh seafood, pasta, and the famous Ligurian olive oil. There are also numerous cafes and restaurants where digital nomads can work while enjoying a cup of Italian coffee. Despite being a small city, Sanremo has a good infrastructure with reliable internet, making it suitable for remote work. It's also well-connected to other parts of Italy and Europe, with Nice and Monaco being just a short drive away. While Italian is the official language, English is commonly spoken in tourist areas, making it easier for expats to communicate. However, learning some Italian can enhance the experience of living in Sanremo and help in building relationships with locals. The local community is generally welcoming to foreigners, and there are also expat communities that can provide support and social opportunities. Overall, Sanremo offers a laid-back lifestyle with plenty of opportunities for leisure and exploration, making it a great place for expats and digital nomads," wrote a member who made the move to Sanremo, Italy.
