We've left our home in Tucson, Arizona to live in Florence, Italy for 6-8months. My husband's bosses requested the move and who were we to complain? My bosses have been most flexible and understanding allowing me to reduce to 20 hours a week and work remotely, while a colleague picks up some work and the salary savings. Our toddler and I plan to explore the city while my husband works and in the evening I get to work!

I'm originally from Liverpool, but transplanted to the US for college and twenty years later find myself in Italy while my husband does something about the dang twinkle in stars (astronomer type) and my toddler and I explore Galileo's home, Florence aka Firenze.
