umbertino Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 (edited) Smack in the middle of hurricane ally. No thank you not for me. Umbertino what part of Italy do you recommend ? MIT....In the link I gave they explained ( I'm no expert so I can't be sure) they had checked the Hurricane rate in that very area where they intended to build the city and it was extremely low.....Project appears (ed) very ambitious nonetheless. To answer your question about what part of Italy I'd recommend... There are many nice areas here but then of course it depends on the Individual's taste...The North can be very cold in the wintertime with the exception of Region Liguria ( with a long shore) whose climate is mitigated and it may have incredibly great temperatures during the winter... It's a sort of Italian Florida in that sense even though not as good for climate. Genova is a beautiful city, Sanremo and there are many enchented areas as "Le Cinque Terre" ( the five lands) , Moneglia, of course super-expensive Portofino, etc. In the central part there's of course beautiful Tuscany and also beautiful Umbria Region ( Perugia, Assisi, etc.)... Then there's Rome in the Lazio Region. In the South the climate is surely better during the cold season but the infrastructures there are not so good. The good thing is that cost of living is sensibly lower than in the the North and Center of the Country.. There are some nice areas in the Campania ( Naples) Region and in Sicily ( also some in Puglia, where they make the best olive oil in the world) and in Calabria too. Then there's Sardegna ( Sardinia) .. Beautiful but incredibly expensive in some specific areas ( Costa Smeralda, Porto Cervo, etc.) Edited January 2, 2014 by umbertino 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umbertino Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 (edited) If you love mountains , then obviously the North is your place , esp. my Region Trentino - Alto Adige with the Dolomites etc...But there are also a lot of lakes in the North , like Lake Garda ( biggest in the Country) with a lot of beautiful villages all around and also seaside places like Liguria and also in the Veneto ( Venezia/Venice) Region and in the Emilia-Romagna Region ( Rimini, Riccione,etc.) Mount Vesuvius .......Then U Won't Be Complaining About The Hurricanes ....... lol.....Either that or Mount Etna, Sicily.

lost one Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 (edited) Somewhere very close to the water. I love boats and fishing, Most likely Venice Florida. (Florida doesn't have a state tax also) And live a normal life, maybe join Habitat for Humanity. I also love to build things.

lost one Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 (edited) Mexico....I'm going to work the marijuana fields, refuse to speak Spanish, get paid in local currency then send it back to the states, bring my Finnish family and all the relatives, incite border conflicts for smuggling lutefisk, take advantage of all their government benefits while demanding they make me a citizen and fly their national flag upside down. Seems to work here. A little illegal alien issues, lets get them out now (if you worked in the marijuana fields, you wouldn't care about anything).. :lol: Edited January 2, 2014 by lost one 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sage449 Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 Some place warmer in the winter with no or minimal taxes and home in the spring/summer/fall. Someplace with good water and fishing, sailing and quiet - that I don't have to knock on the wall and ask the neighbor to turn it down or off because my kitchen table is rumbling across the floor from the music next door. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
