The Part of Moving to Italy Nobody Talks About with Camilla Jackson
Moving to Italy changes a lot more than your address.
It changes your routines, your relationships, your sense of belonging, and even the way you see yourself.
In this episode, Samantha sits down with psychotherapist Camilla Jackson to talk about the emotional side of building a life abroad. They explore why expectations can make adjusting harder, why it's normal to feel out of place even when you've achieved your dream, and how understanding Italian culture, building community, and giving yourself time can make all the difference.
If you're planning your move, or you've already arrived and are wondering why it feels harder than expected, this conversation will remind you that you're not doing it wrong. You're simply doing something that takes time.
