is Italy an expert friendly country I'll try to answer it as someone who's lived here for 9 years let's break it down in parts so welcome to the part one Italians are in general very open and welcoming they're generally interested in you so finding friends as you move here isn't that difficult but it's definitely easier in bigger cities where people tend to be used to foreigners and more people speak English smaller towns might offer incredible Hospitality but it might be a little bit more complicated to find friends as people tend to have more established Social Circles and less people may speak English I still recommend you to learn Italian anyway but I know it might be challenge at the beginning subscribe not to me the next part we'll talk about bureaucracy jobs and the best age to move here
