My name is Lola, i live in italy and i work in a restaurant but i would love to move to another city having a good job and starting a New life all by myself. I dont know how difficult it is to get a job and an apartment. I dont know if i can settle for Florence with a job.

Is this one of the better quality areas to live in concerning all expense for health, dental, vision and culturally setting. And, quality of life. Can, you suggest the outside of the centre area away from your over populated cities to of good quality, peaceful and adventurist to live.
