Work With Me
Let's talk about your Italy.
About Me
I first fell for Montepulciano while studying abroad. Years later, I sat down at Il Sasso, with my KSU group, and felt like this place had been waiting for me.
Now I own a home here. It took a lot of paperwork and many steps, and I learned most of it the hard way: how to find the right train, what to ask a seller, how the bureaucracy really works, which phrases get you a smile at the bakery.
I started I Love Montepulciano so other people could fall in love with this town too, and skip some of the stumbles I had along the way.
If you are somewhere on that path, whether it's a first visit or a full move, I'm happy to share what I know.
What We Can Talk About
- Planning a trip. Where to stay, how to get around without a car, what's worth your time in Montepulciano, Florence, Siena, and Val d'Orcia, and what you can skip.
- Thinking about a move. What day-to-day life looks like, what surprised me, how I approached housing, and what I'd do differently.
- Visa and paperwork questions. What I went through and what I learned along the way, so you know which questions to bring to a professional.
- Settling in. Language, neighbors, small-town rhythms, and building a life in a place that runs on its own clock.
- Content and the ILM brand. If you want to talk about travel storytelling or building something like I Love Montepulciano, we can do that too.
What This Isn't
I'm not a lawyer, immigration attorney, accountant, or licensed travel advisor. I'm someone who's done this, and I'm happy to share what I know and how I'd think about it.
- I can tell you what my own process looked like. I can't tell you what the right visa is for you.
- I can tell you about the places I love. I can't guarantee prices, hours, or rules, which change often.
- For legal, immigration, tax, or financial decisions, please confirm with a qualified professional. I'm glad to point you toward the kinds of people to look for.

- Tell me a little. A few quick questions so I can prepare, like when you're hoping to move and where you are in the process.
- We talk. 30 minutes by video. I'll share what I know, and you leave with a short list of next steps. I'll send a follow-up email with the links we talked about.
