After hundreds of hours of prep work, blood, sweat and tears (literally), we can finally call Villa Oliva ours. We have left everything behind (our jobs, house, family, friends, our beloved Dutch structure) to start over in Italy. Join us as we go on this new and breathtaking cultural, life-changing, DIY, renovation adventure.

What secrets does this Italian villa from 1895 hold for us?
Can we survive the differences between the Dutch and Italian culture?
Dutch friends: "Are you out of your minds?!"


We are willing to change our lives completely to find out.

My name is Sam and together with my girlfriend Lyanne, I am on a quest to restore the beauty of this old Italian villa from 1895. Join us as we have to let go of our Dutch habits to fit in in our Italian surroundings, were the word 'plan' gets redefined and our tastebuds are awakened.
The goal of this project is to show that with limited financial means and a lot of optimism we can resurrect the beauty of this abandoned villa in a green and sustainable way. But most of all learn from everything that we encounter and enjoy it whilst we're at it.
