Living in Italy: the Real Deal: How to survive the Good Life

Description

“Now I can add Stef Smulders to the list of my favorite ex-pat authors” —N.N. Light

In 2008, Stef Smulders, his partner Nico, and their dog, Saar, emigrated to Italy to start a new life and set up their B&B Villa I Due Padroni. They sold their home, left their friends and family behind, and took a leap into the unknown. Now Stef shares his experiences in a collection of witty short stories. The book treats the trials and tribulations of an emigration.

The reader is introduced to a full range of Italian characters, from the trustworthy to the rogue, from the gentle to the shameless, flesh and blood Italians. Some are stereotype, others unexpectedly original. Yet they never fail to amuse and entertain.

Readers’ reviews:
“I was hooked after the first couple of lines and couldn’t put the book down until the end.”
“What a fantastic read!” “Hilarious!” “Addicting!” “Recommended!”
