So, I've drafted a letter to the mayor of a small town in Molise, called Pizzone. I was told by a friend in Italy that they are selling houses specifically to WRITERS, for 1 Euro. Of course you have to renovate them, but hey, nothing to be sneezed at. My wife and I have our fingers crossed. We just hope that because we are Australian citizens that we will be able to do it.
Pizzone is in Isernia, Molise. If people don't know much about Molise - it was once part of a bigger region called Abruzzo-Molise, but now they are separate. It's the newest region in Italy. The location of Pizzone is very close to the centre of Italy, near the Appenines, so it's close to Rome, Napoli, Pescara etc.
It really does look like a beautiful region with many pretty small towns but unfortunately, like many other regions and small towns, people are deserting them for the bigger cities just like in Australia. It's a shame, but I believe with technology and the internet there is no reason that this should happen anymore.
We have our fingers crossed.
