Grazie, thank you for your lovely comment and thanks for watching. Abruzzo is just so beautiful isn't it! There's so much to discover and we love exploring it. We fall in love with the region more and more each time. 😍
hello from Florida... thank you for sharing ..we are moving to Abruzzo in April ....do you live there? keep up the videos will subscribe...ciao for now...
The weather has been a little weird here too but not rainy dreary like in the UK. Yesterday it was really windy but it's incredibly warm. I've just popped out to the shop in jeans and a t-shirt but you can certainly also wear shorts now too! Probably still need a few more layers though if you are going up in altitude!
Sorry for the late response. Yes each one of us in the family has used the healthcare system and it's mostly fantastic. Getting an appointment for certain things takes much longer now though than it did 5 years ago when we moved here and for certain things you can wait 6 months to a year. Even sometimes with private healthcare this was the case and so we no longer have that - can't afford it anymore anyway. However, for certain things you can just phone a clinic direct and ask for an appointment 'a pagamento' and they fit you in pretty much the next day. For example, I had an MRI scan on my knee 2 days after I called and it cost just 130 euros!
I thought of the same I was told after you become a resident you can sign up for Public healthcare, but I think that could be a while. For Emergencies I'd like a clinic in the town, for major health issues I think we will come return to the states as I plan to keep my healthcare insurance open. At least until I can find something affordable in Italy.
Oh Gosh, that's so lovely to hear! So pleased that you love our videos. We would love to do more; every week if only it were possible but recently we've got so many commitments keeping us busy. As soon as we can, we will definitely do some more. Did you know we also have another channel? Check out our renovation project @palazzosanbenedetto
