The Italy Move Blueprint: The 5 Things Americans Get Wrong Before They Even Start Packing

A Free Masterclass for Those Who Already Know Italy is Home — They Just Need the Roadmap

As Seen In

You’ve been to Italy. Maybe three times,

Maybe ten.

You’ve walked streets that felt more like home than anywhere you’ve lived. You’ve eaten meals that made you wonder what in the world are they putting in the food back home. You didn’t know a tomato could taste so fine. You’ve thought, more than once — why am I not living here?

And now you’re actually considering it.

Not as a someday. As a plan.

But somewhere between the dream and the doing, it gets complicated. There’s the visa research that leads to more visa research. The housing questions that don’t have clean, consistent answers. The taxes that nobody seems to explain clearly. The sense that maybe it’s more complicated than you realized — or maybe you’re overthinking it.

Here’s what I’ve learned after two decades of living in Italy and helping hundreds of Americans successfully make the move to Italy: the complexity is real, but it’s manageable. The people who struggle are almost always the ones who didn’t know what they didn’t know — until it was too late to fix it.

This masterclass is for you.

In 60 minutes, we’ll cover:

The Visa Reality Check

The visa landscape for Americans is more nuanced than the internet lets on. We’ll cut through the confusion to help you understand which path actually fits your life — so you don’t waste months pursuing the wrong one.

Why the Italian Rental Market Might Surprise You

Finding a beautiful apartment in Italy sounds romantic. The reality, however, involves bureaucracy, language barriers, and legal requirements most Americans discover far too late in the process. I’ll show you exactly what to look for in advance — and what to protect yourself from.

Your Real Timeline

If you’re planning to move in a year, you might already be behind. We’ll map out a realistic, successful relocation ahead of time, so you can start taking the right steps in the right order.

The Tax Conversation You‘ll Be So Glad You Had

Americans living abroad still have U.S. tax obligations — and now, you have Italian ones, too. Understanding your U.S. and Italian tax obligations early is truly a game-changer on how you structure your move. I’ll introduce you to the framework my clients use.

Building Your Italian Life Before You Arrive

The clients who thrive in Italy are the ones who laid the groundwork before they ever boarded the plane. I’ll show you exactly what that looks like — and how you can start today!

This workshop is designed for:

Professionals, entrepreneurs, and retirees who are seriously planning a move to Italy — not someday, but within the next 1 to 3 years
People who’ve done some research and are starting to realize there’s more to navigate than they expected
Anyone who wants a clear, trustworthy roadmap from someone who has actually done this — not just for themself but for hundreds of clients

This is not for people who are still in the “maybe one day” phase. If you’re ready to think seriously about your move, this is for you.

IT’S A PLEASURE TO MEET YOU

Ciao, I’m Thea!

Founder of Doing Italy.

I’ve lived in Italy for over 20 years. I have a Master’s degree from Bocconi University in Milan. I’ve helped hundreds of Americans — professors, business owners, retirees, former diplomats, remote workers with kids in tow — navigate the beautiful, complicated process of building a life in Italy.

I know what works, what trips people up, and how to help you get there without the mistakes that cost months of time and thousands of dollars to undo

I created this workshop because I wanted every serious person to have access to the knowledge that most of my clients tell me changed everything for them.

This training is me handing you the map I wish I'd had.
