Why Italy Is So Great?

By Ken Taylor


Italy has the lot, good weather, plenty of culture, wonderful scenery and fantastic food. Anyone who has spent even a few days there will understand just how tempting moving to Italy can be, which is why every year thousands of foreigners up sticks and move there.

Because Italy borders so many other countries if you enjoy travelling and experiencing several different cultures Italy is perfect for you. Italy is bordered by France, Switzerland, Austria and Slovenia and the distinct independent states of The Vatican City and San Marino are Italian enclaves too. You can also visit the distinctly different autonomous regions of Sicily and Sardinia, which are located off the coast of Italy.

The weather in Italy is great and varied there is something for everyone. To the North you have the Alps and the glorious skiing weather that comes with them and in the spring and summer they are perfect for walking in. To the south, the Mediterranean coastline, home to beautiful islands and hot sunny weather, take your pick dependent on the lifestyle you like.

The other great thing about Italy is the food it is fresh well prepared and very good for you at least it would be if you can resist eating too much of it. If you are in any doubt about how good the food is just think about how popular Italian food has become throughout the world.

Italy is home to some of the finest historical building in the world. Who doesn't want to visit Pompeii, or Rome's ancient architecture or Florence and Milan's incredible cathedrals?

The Italian language is wonderfully expressive and is not as difficult as you might think to learn. Both English and Italian are Latin based languages, so have many words in common or at least very similar to each other.

Italian people are passionate, strong willed, hard working, up front and incredibly friendly - that's got to be the best kind of people. Provided you try to intricate and learn the language you will be made very welcome in Italy.

If you are planning to move to Italy make sure that you prepare well for the move and you will be very happy there. Being able to speak the language before you arrive is especially important.
