The title ofLiving, Studying and Working in Italysays  it all: this book is intended for would-be expatriates with an eye for  Italy. The authors have both had extensive experience living and  working in theBel Paese--Neighbor was in Florence for four  years while Larner still lives in Rome, where she is a journalist forBusiness Week. Together they have pooled their experiences and  collective knowledge of living abroad to address the practical side of  living, working, or studying in Italy.The first thing you might notice about this book is that it lacks  references to Italy's great art, popular tourist sites, and best  hotels. But remember, this is no ordinary guidebook--leave the tourist  stuff to others and let Neighbor and Larner take you on a tour of  everyday life as an expatriate in Italy. Here you'll find information  about taking language courses and teaching English, volunteering for  archeological digs, and starting a business. There are plenty of  practical tips about visas, banking, residency requirements, and--alas!--taxes. There are lists of language schools, volunteer  opportunities, and internship programs as well as information about  freelance, part-time, and full-time employment opportunities. In short,  this guidebook extraordinaire might just be an expatriate's best friend in Italy.
