I wish this could be clarified for me, I would love to mention our apartment but that seems a no no, perhaps Valentina could explain what is acceptable?. I have read the notes re what is suitable, and am none the wiser.

We have a house and apartment in rural Marche, and would love the opportunity to see more of Italy, but we have 3 cats who are much loved and need looking after whilst we are away. Any members with property in Italy care to do a house swap?

We used an all purpose close meshed wire from the local Feramenta for our run. Also put a mesh roof on the run to discourage anything climbing/jumping in.

The doctor will probably just give you a print out of drugs taken and treatment given, takes a few seconds. You then can present this to your new Italian GP, names of drugs may differ, but you should not worry about the need for it to be translated. As long as you just gen up on some basic Italian for whatever you have been treated for, you should be fine.

As Penny says it is essential to have an accountant, especially for peace of mind, the last thing anyone needs is to be investigated by the finance police. We actually do not find ours expensive and the initial consultation was free.He has other English clients in the same position as ourselves, if anyone in the Montegiorgio area wants his details will be happy to pass them on.
