    places to live

    Hi Anneke, me again. Well I love Rome but VERY expensive! rents are crazy crazy crazy..but it is a fabulous magical city. Hate Naples...dirty chaotic and overcrowed and the traffic...a nightmare...hate Pomiglian d'Arco...dirty rundown they throw garbage on the sides of the highways...poor lonely stray dogs running around everywhere....I like Palermo..cheaper for rent and quite hustling bustling. I presently livei n Trapani and the best thing here is the PEOPLE! rents very cheap..flat in the centre for 350 euros. but...no car kinda boring...I will be leaving soon.

    I can tell you that living in Italy is not all it is cracked up to be. for example today i am without water..for over 24 hours. when i moved into this flat i had problems with the electricity...and never sign rental contracts in italian if you don't understand them. i have run into a rather deceptive twit of a realtor here.

    and depending on where you go...you will probably have to waste one months on paying a commision to a rental agency to find you a flat. seems many italians not so used to renting the places directly over the internet.

    hope this helps!
