What if America’s next great export isn’t goods or tech, but its people? I’m hosting Michele Collu, a Sardinian-born entrepreneur who's helping reverse the population decline in his home region by helping Americans make Sardinia their new home.

With his deep understanding of both U.S. and Italian cultures, Michele sheds light on what makes Sardinia irresistible for people seeking a slower, more connected life.

We talk about how Sardinia’s stunning beauty and rich cultural heritage remain largely untouched by globalization, making it an ideal escape from the grind. Michele shares why many Americans are trading hustle culture for a slice of coastal paradise, and what it actually takes to make the leap.

If you've ever fantasized about moving abroad, this episode is your unofficial guide. Tune in to hear Michele’s top advice, the most common misconceptions, and find out if this lifestyle is really for you.
