A Rosie life in Italy : move to Italy, buy a rundown villa, what could go wrong?
Meleady, Rosie2024
Book
"Who hasn't dreamed of moving to the Italian countryside, buying and renovating a rundown villa? Well, that's exactly what Rosie Meleady, a wedding planner, did, when she moved her family from cold, wet, overpriced Ireland to Italy, where she and her husband accidentally bought a 22-room derelict villa in Umbria from eight crazy cousins in the middle of a global pandemic. While living in Italy is many people's idea of paradise, it's not all sunshine and gelato. Rosie pulls back the curtain to reveal some of the more stress-inducing parts of living abroad: navigating the many complex layers of buying a home in Italy, the tribulations of the COVID pandemic, and how difficult it was for them to integrate themselves into their new residence, all while introducing a bevy of hilarious characters and the friends they make along the way"-- Provided by publisher.
