Genoa is Vertical
It will never cease to amaze me how it is possible to build building after building on higher and higher slopes - one road overlooking a 5 storey apartment block and yet another overlooking the apartments on that road!
Well, I have used some serious shoe-leather today and travelled on many buses as well as been transported around by car. I have seen most of the nice places to live in Genova proper while viewing six different apartments in a single day. Castello is stupidly high up, but I saw a beautiful flat there. Piazza Martinez and the surrounding streets are ideal living areas. Great shops really nice atmosphere, and some magnificent palacial apartment blocks. I think the nicest place I saw was in that area.
The best place though was I think on the Corsa Europa. 3 bedrooms plus a good sized living room. Kitchen, bathroom and extra toilet. 4 balconies, and a view of the sea! What more could you want?
All yours for 850 euros a month!
So, Italy looks great, the people in the office are very helpful, and it looks as if we might find somewhere nice to live. La vita bella!
Ciao!

wheee!
happy (and successful) househunting! :)
850 euros a month?
It's a bargain!
Pick a place near a park and some shops.
Your family will learn Italian that much faster.
As for the hills and fresh air...
It'll do wonders for your heart, lungs and fitness.
Ironically for a robot fanatic, you'll come back an iron-man.

Sounds like this move is getting to be a better and better idea! Now, €850 is maybe not the cheapest, but view of the sea....
Good Luck!
