As someone who grew up in Canada and is now in the process of moving to Italy, this was very helpful for me to read! Thank you for being so honest about the pros and cons. Getting my Italian driver's licence is currently what I'm most worried about 😅

Thank you, Julia. 🙏 Don't worry too much about the Italian license. It’s a bit of a pain, but if your Italian is solid and you enroll in a "scuola guida", the process becomes fairly straightforward. You can even opt for an automatic license if you’re not used to manual cars. While the whole process can be done independently, I think it might be worthwhile to go through a school. Plus, you’ll get to interact with some Italians that way (though most will be kids).
Thank you for your insight! I will for sure be going through a school. As for the manual/automatic, I would like to push myself to be more comfortable with manual... We'll see 🙈
