HI,

Alba and Asti are pretty small cities in Italy. The area in which they are is a very beautiful one. We know them well, even if right now we live in the USA. In Alba you'll find more foreign, it's a wine-city that attract a lot of people. It's also very beautiful. Asti is also pretty, but I guess it has less foreigners. I have cousins living there, if you have specific questions, I will be glad to ask them.

Haven't been to Asti yet but we went to the Truffle Festival in Alba last year. Really great! Not too far from Torino either.

I am semi-retired now but I did some looking on the web for jobs here in the Piedmont region - I don't know what your wife would like to do for work but here are some resources that may help:

.jobsinmilan.com/
.englishlanguagejobs.com/candidates/jobs/?region_id=13
.tesolcourse.com/?gclid=CKvxiZTrzp8CFRBtswodiXfxbQ
americanbusinessgroup.org/
expatsinitaly.com/node (this one has some job information)

Residence and related information:
.informer.it/ (good information)
rome.angloinfo.com/countries/italy/residency.asp
.romebuddy.com/givesadvice/legalities.html (staying in Italy)
.initaly.com/travel/lomax.htm (driving in Italy)

En bocca a lupo (Good Luck)!

Thank you聽 !

I think it's going to be a little tough for my wife getting a job plus kindergartner school for my daughter...
I am counting on the fact that she speaks 3 languages....

Child care below 3 years of age is available but you might find your child on the waiting list. For your child age day care is called ASILO NIDO.
While after 3 years of age you will find more options at a cheaper price. Many people get a part-time nanny at home and most of the nannies are foreigners themselves.
Which kind of job would your wife like to do?

She is not yet fluent in Italian but she's getting there...

I haven't moved the family, I stay every other week which makes it kind of hard.
We are on our second child due in June , so not really sure if I make the big move

oh I understand! what a pity ... but congrats on the new arrival! are you working in alba or asti? may I ask for what company? I am currently a stay at home mum but want to start looking for job opportunities to start a part time commitment. I feel the need for something else :-)
