Ok, lets keep things right
I lived in Milan for almost 2 years and I never had any troubles to communicate or finding/making friends!
BUT it’s a bit different with a family, we moved from Germany to Switzerland to Ireland to France to Germany to NZ. I will f^ck off to work every day and having “fun” my missus and kids not!!!! So is it so hard for you guys to understand that?? Guess not!!!
Just in case someone wants to meet:
I’m an engineer

hate flight crews

of course and doing all this men stuff, working, drinking, sports and my motorbike
My partner, hate cabin crews especially the good-looking girls, she does all the women stuff cooking, reading, bitching about….., aerobics and spending hours on the phone talking bull.
My two kids are 2 and 5 years, best looking boys on this planet are just boys and do what boys do.
btw, signed the contract and we will hit italy in october/november

thanks for the advice, but I think we will stay within the area and see how the family will handle the situation. I was offered a nice package and it’s a perfect chance to come back to Europe. If you are happy to relocate its most properly one of the better places in central Europe and as I said, the Italians are usually reserved (have to be careful)

but as soon as you overcome the language barrier (after a couple of drinks or so) it changes rapidly.
