The 17 hacks — every one of them tested by us, in Italy, in the last 24 months.

Who this PDF is — and isn't — for.

We'd rather lose the wrong reader at the door than send the wrong person 17 hacks they can't use.

This is for you if…

  • You're an American 40+ with portable income — remote W-2, consulting, retirement, a small business.
  • You've been to Italy. You're done daydreaming. You want a real plan, not a Pinterest board.
  • You'd rather see real numbers than postcard adjectives.

Skip this if…

  • You're shopping for la dolce vita as a mood, not a move.
  • You expect to land in Rome with no plan and have it work.
  • You've decided Italy isn't for you. We agree with you. Don't burn an email on this.

Why us

We don't write about Italy. We live here.

We're Pamela & Garry — two Americans, married, dual citizens, living between the US and Italy. We've been doing the split-year life since 2018 and we make a living teaching other Americans how to do it without losing their mind, their money, or their U.S. work.

Every hack in this PDF is something we use. Most of them cost us 8 years of confusion to figure out. You won't have to.

Before you give us your email

The five questions everyone asks.

Why is this free?
Two reasons. One — most people who download the PDF will use it and never speak to us again, and that's a win. We came to Italy lost. We don't want anyone else to. Two — a small number of readers will want a real community, a guided path, and people on the ground. Those are the people we eventually meet inside Andiamo™. The PDF earns the right to be invited. That's it.
Do I need Italian heritage to use any of this?
No. 14 of the 17 hacks work for any American with a U.S. passport — Schengen, Wise, eSIM, codice fiscale, the works. Three of them lean on dual citizenship if you have it (and most Americans don't realize they qualify by descent — there's a 2-minute self-check inside).
Is this legal or tax advice?
No, but inside our program we can recommend you to one.
I'm 2–3 years out from moving. Is it too early?
It's better. The hacks that matter most — dual citizenship, tax residency, building portable income — are the ones with the longest lead times. Read the PDF now, start one move this week, and your future self will thank you 36 months from now when the calendar catches up.
How fast does it arrive?
Instantly. You'll be on the next page with the download in under 60 seconds. The PDF is 76 pages — you can read it tonight on the couch.
One PDF. 17 hacks. Yours.

Stop reading articles about Italy. Start using the file Italy doesn't hand out.

If a single one of the 17 hacks doesn't save you a headache, hit reply on the delivery email. We'll send you something that does. That's the guarantee.
