Moving to Italy: the disadvantages

Every story has two sides, just like moving to Italy. The most common disadvantages we hear from people returning from Italy to the Netherlands are: 

• Finding work can be challenging, and wages are often lower than in other European countries
• Different quality of education than you're used to, unless you opt for international schools
• Complex bureaucratic rules that constantly change and slow administrative processes
• Difficult to adapt to the Italian lifestyle, as everything takes a bit longer, and not everything is clear
• The Italian language
• Far from family and friends

Italian hospitality, gelato, and wine alone are not enough to make the crucial decision you're facing. There are definitely downsides to moving to Italy, and the differences between Northwest Italy, Northeast Italy, Central Italy, and Southern Italy are significant.
