Do you have any home repair and/or construction skills or the money to buy some ? If yes, keep reading.

Do you like Peter Gabriel or early Genesis ?

Do you live near Italy or would you like to do so ? If yes, click on link.

How clever. 1 Euro = $1.44 USD. Puah.

That's shitty.

Falcarius is so buying a bunch of them.

Seriously, what's the catch?

well first you'd have to pay a considerable sum to have the house(s) restored. then there'd be the eternal tug-o-war with the italian craftsmen who can't seem to finnish anything on time.

finally, if you got past all that, most native sicilians have no education and don't speak a word of english, let alone proper italian.

that said, the island itself has a lot of potential. it "just" needs to be probably developed. if we could start an MBTI retreat there, it would be great
