About this episode
Have you ever dreamed of residing within the walls of a walled city? If so, Lucca, Italy, might be the perfect destination for you. With its lively cafes and medieval architecture, living within the historic wall seems glorious. Ilene and Gary Modica moved from Arizona to Lucca and consider this Tuscan city their true home. To learn more about the alluring “cafe culture” of this amazing city, tune in to Episode 131 of Retire There with Gil & Gene.
Check out Ilene and Gary’s award winning blog, Our Italian Journey, about moving to and living in Italy. Their two books on the subject are Our Italian Journey: Living Our Dream in Italy for One Year and When Your Heart Finds Its Home: The Journey Continues.
