Not likely because you would need a work permit, and that requires that you are a resident. And that can take months to line up...and then you have to hope you can get the permit. Probably best to see if you could work direct with a veterinarian there to bring people in to assist them as they can apply for the permits and they will know how to deal with the beauracracy.

We used Anchorless for our D7 visa as they were very competative on their pricing, I can't say enoufg good things about them, they were awesome

We are planning to move our 2 dogs to Portugal and have the same concerns. We ended up booking travel from CA to Paris, and then we will travel by land to Portugal (no direct flight to Lisbon yet). We have booked flights on K9Jets, whilst it's not cheap, I'm not sure that one of my dogs would survive being in the cargo hold, so to me it's the cost of getting out of the US

Two years ago we took a month to visit Madrid and major cities in northern Spain: Santiago de Compostela, Gijón, Oviedo, Bilbao, and also Zaragoza because it was somewhat on the way back to Madrid. We had already decided on which climate we'd want to live in, which meant we didn't waste time in areas we weren't interested in inhabiting. It was a great trip and have us a good idea of where we'd be comfortable. We loved Oviedo so much we looked up a couple expats there and had a lovely lunch with them. It really helps to talk face to face with people who live there.

P.S. Companies like Expedia often have no clue about the above. (I.e., they're not present locally and are often clueless about local car rental conventions.)

Irene, I don't know if this is a duplicate. I have a travel agent who lives here in italy, Who is American - speaks English and knows Italy like he lives here 'cause he does! His name is Chris Russo, chris@alternativetravelservices.com. I think he can tell you how to put the Orvieto - great town incidentally, plan at least 3 ydas there... minium - then back to your other towns. I think yuo might drive. but you can certainly bus or train as well. Chip

In English: "It's easy to live with your eyes closed, misinterpreting everything you see."
