Use this guide to enhance your rental experience!

Guidebooks are helpul, but most fall short ofthe "idance"

you need fo r renting your own propery. Why? Because

living like a native is nothing like staying in a hotel! Whether

you're packing for yor adventre or trying to figure out how

to grocery shop in nother language, staying in yor own

home-away-rom-home presents a diferent set of challenges.

Over he years I've made many rips to Italy: irst as a student,

then a single traveler, later as a mother of three, and inally

as he owner of Rentvillas.com. Part how-to, prt insider's

guide, his traveler's companion is based on my experiences

as a renter. You'll find dining suggestions and recommenda

tions for must-see sights as well as all he nuts and bolts of

raveling toItaly, such as aiport rrivals and surviving on the

road. IfI've overlooked something, please drop me a line and

help me add to these words of wisdom!

Buon viaggio!
