TravelerDee and I wanted to know how long you plan to live in Italy and how you decided to live in Bologna. Ciao!
Two to TravelWe're starting with one year ... that's how long they give the initial elective residence visa for. And then you can renew. So, we'll see after one year whether we extend. As for why Bologna? We wanted somewhere in northern Italy; somewhere less touristy and crowded than Rome, Florence, or Venice; somewhere that had access to all the services for setting up residency; and also somewhere that was a good transportation hub (especially for trains). If we extend, we might move somewhere smaller, but we don't want to buy a car to get around, so that will be a consideration in making any future plans.
TravelerMakes good sense. and sounds exciting and delicious too! Guess you gave up your Colorado residency?
Two to TravelKeeping Colorado until we know for sure what our next steps will be.
