Case Study

Sometimes, you just have to trust yourself.

You have a dream. An impulse. An urge. You want to follow through with it – paint all summer in the South of France. Introduce people in Burma to shade-grown coffee. Learn, finally, how to properly execute the driver off the deck. (Golf swing, nothing violent.)

How did they do it? How did two people with zero experience and zero Italian connections just… up and move to Italy and start a business?
