Welcome to Layover in Italy!

A Californian in Milan, sharing everything I know about la dolce vita.

Welcome to Layover in Italy!
Me at a lookout point near Barga, Italy (2022)

Hi! My name is Stephanie, and I’m a 27-year-old Californian currently living and working in Milan, Italy!

I successfully applied for Italian citizenship by descent in 2019 through my grandparents, and I moved to Milan as a dual US/Italian citizen in January 2022.

I now work remotely from my monolocale as a web developer, and I write about what it's like to live, work, and travel solo throughout Italy as a young professional.
