We are still moving!
Hi Webwanderer,
...HI Aloma, <br />We are still moving!<br /><br />Hi Webwanderer, <br />I think if you buy a place in a small town and make friends with the locals then your house will be safe. If you buy something in the country away from other houses I would be hesitant, as with any country it could be unwise in my opinion since no one can keep an eye on the place. If you have an apartment or something attached to another house then the neighbours will look out for you as it is in their best interest. Best of luck!<br /><br />Hi Celeste,<br />Bit late to reply but sure you can link to my blog :)<br /><br />Hi Rachel,<br />Thanks and yes, slowly we are on the road to recovery.Leanne was in Italy now in Australiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03240105726417037664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2945600374886655820.post-47049554686739767562012-10-30T11:48:18.681+01:002012-10-30T11:48:18.681+01:00I'm so sorry for the horrible experience you&#...I'm so sorry for the horrible experience you've had!

I too have been reading your blog for about two years and this story is so eye opening. <br />I am an American woman, and lived in Sicily,1993-1997 near US Naval Air Station, Sigonella, my husband is retired USN. <br />From Italians I heard so many stories like this. In the US everyone is thinking that free medical care is going to be a dream, one just goes in and everything is taken care of for them, and whenever someone else pays, they dictate how things are going to be. I posted it, since the blog is public but then thought maybe I should ask. <br />This is long, but the stolen car entry, so very familiar as well!!<br />CelesteAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2945600374886655820.post-46459801626440163262012-10-24T04:40:39.882+02:002012-10-24T04:40:39.882+02:00Hi Leanne,
I have been reading your Blog on and of...Hi Leanne,<br />I have been reading your Blog on and off for a couple of years now. It is so interesting. I was born in Messina 53 years ago and left Italy in 1966 with my parents to make a home in Australia. I have never been back, but I have become very curious and interested since reading about your adventures moving back to Italy. I have toyed around with the idea of taking out a dual citizenship, but have discovered that to reclaim my Italian citizenship I will need to actually live in Italy for a minimum 12 months before I can make application.<br /><br />My intent is as I get close to retirement to buy a small place in the south of Italy and use it as a holiday home to escape the winters in Australia. Do you think that would work? There is some very cheap property for sale in small Italian villages. Would you think it would be safe to leave a home in Italy unoccupied for most of the year? I have heard stories where people break in and squat and then you can't get them out.<br /><br />Anyway, glad to read you and bel bambino are on the mend. It was so tragic, what happened to you both.<br /><br />You remind me so much of my cousin, you both have the same temperament and you look like her too.<br /><br />Best regards from Australia,<br />Salvatore.<br />Webwandererhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12850485306550562215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2945600374886655820.post-73940410447659175602012-10-21T18:50:52.842+02:002012-10-21T18:50:52.842+02:00So glad to see an update but what an experience!
