Additional percentage applies for each extra person.

A complete end-to-end service for starting your life in Italy with clarity, calm and support. Perfect for those relocating for citizenship, visas, or long-term residency — especially if the recent law changes mean you now need to spend two years living here.

This package combines Valentina’s legal expertise with Stef’s lived-experience relocation support, so nothing is left confusing or overwhelming.

What’s included:

• Citizenship / Visa Pathway Guidance — understand which options apply to you and how the law changes affect your case.

• Personalised Relocation Roadmap — a clear step-by-step plan outlining everything to do in Australia and Italy, with timelines, requirements and next steps.

• Document Preparation & Requirements — support gathering certificates, translations, apostilles, visa documentation, court applications (if needed), and all bureaucratic essentials.

• Appointment Support — help booking, preparing for and understanding required appointments; we can also attend with you.

• Zoom Call leading up to when you leave to make sure you have all the information you need - what to pack, leave behind, coordination of anything additional you need here - airport shuttle, new sheets, a quick clean etc.

• Welcome Groceries — essentials waiting for you so you’re not scrambling on day one.

• Welcome Coffee or Spritz – in one of our top venues to help you understand the area, expectations and your first priorities.

• Neighbourhood Walk & Local Hotspots — an orientation of your new area when you arrive so you know where to buy groceries, the best cafés, transport routes and everyday essentials.’

• A Dedicated “Settling Day” where we complete 2–3 essential tasks together — Comune appointments, SIM card, doctor registration, bank, internet setup, understanding the bin schedule or other basics.

• Access to our Curated Database of Professional Service Recommendations — Perhaps the most valuable! The best cleaners, hairdressers, commercialistas, beauticians, Italian teachers and more.

• Introduction to Likeminded People — Whether you want to meet fellow expats, creatives, digital nomads or friendly locals, we’ll help you start building your community from day one.

• Whatsapp Groups — There are a number of social groups in Salento, we’ll find out which ones are best suited and make sure you’re added to the group.

• Local Insights & Cultural Guidance — everything you need to understand “how life works” here, from unwritten rules to settling comfortably.

• One Month of WhatsApp Support — daily window for quick answers when things feel confusing or urgent in your first weeks.

This package gives you the stability of legal accuracy with the reassurance of lived experience, the best support for a big life move.

Ad-Hoc Local Support (Monthly Plan)

Investment:
$250 per month AUD (3-month minimum)
or
$210 per month AUD (6-month commitment)

Access to Stef for simple guidance and everyday clarity without full relocation support.

Not everyone needs hands-on help or structured settling-in sessions. Some people simply want someone they can message when they’re unsure of something, can’t find clear answers online or want local insight that Google can’t give.

This monthly package gives you light, practical support as you settle into life in Italy; the kind that helps you avoid small mistakes, feel more confident and get quick answers from someone who actually lives here.

What’s included:

Short, simple WhatsApp questions answered Monday–Friday during support hours
(examples: “Where do I buy ___?”, “Is this normal?”, “How do Italians usually handle ___?”)

Local insight you won’t find online — trusted shops, services, etiquette and what to avoid

Quick clarity when something unexpected pops up and you’re not sure who to ask

Everyday cultural guidance so you feel more confident in typical situations

Recommendations for groceries, household items, markets, cafés, gyms, classes, community groups and local activities

Seasonal updates on local events, regional happenings and things to know

Clear Boundaries (So It Stays Useful + Fair)

This package is guidance only. It’s perfect for small questions and everyday clarity. It is not a replacement for relocation services and does not include tasks or admin.

Who this is for:

• People already living in Italy
• Those who don’t need hands-on help but want reassurance
• Anyone who wants a local contact for simple questions
• Individuals adjusting to Italian culture and routines
• Clients wanting continued light support after the 1- or 3-month packages
• People living alone or far from big expat communities
