Scared of what?
Bergamo is a nice town,beautiful medieval downtown (or uptown i should say), mountains and lakes are just a little drive away, food&weather are not an issue and living costs are very reasonable.
Of course you will be in Italy and italian is the language you should expect people to speak, might even learn some...
I'm sure there are people here who could give you relocation advice ; in the meanwhile stay cool and don't panic....nobody will bite you.
