See You in Sicily

See You in Sicily is a personal blog sharing the story of our move from Ireland to Sicily in 2022.

While we plotted and planned this huge change in our lives, the response from family and friends was always the same – “Can’t wait to come visit you – See you in Sicily!”

And then, do please come see us in Sicily!
