Moving to an apartment in Italy...
In December, my friend, Francesca and I struggled through the streets of Spoleto carrying her free kitchen sink... really. I wish I would have captured that on film. She had just signed a 4 1/2 year lease that was for an unfurnished apartment.
In Italy, an unfurnished apartment not only has no furniture but also no cabinets, no kitchen, no heater, no light fixtures - in short, it is EMPTY and tends to be rather less than what we would consider "unfurnished" in the United States.
Francesca has worked hard to get her apartment together and we were happy to help. It is a beautiful space for us to visit and today was a fun way to spend a Monday.

What?! That is crazy! I love that unfurnished apartments here come with a fridge as well. It would be too much trouble to move otherwise...let alone with no cabinets!
