Sorry, I can't really help you, I just wanted to say congratulations! The place looks really cool. It's a very specific question, so perhaps there are some weddings/California-related communities where more people could pitch in. I mean, of course, it doesn't hurt to ask, you never know. Either way, cheers and congratulations one more time! 🥂

We consume less by doing more. Say, we watch less YouTube about what we want to do and start doing more of what it is we want to do.

This. Exactly this. I mean, it seems so easy, but I can't say it actually is. Are we really so unmotivated to start doing more? I should speak for myself, so am I really so unmotivated or whatever that this is so difficult for me?

It was bound to happen. When the pressure became too great, it backfired and had the opposite effect. I mean, I call it pressure, but of course, you can always refuse to tip. I read last year about how tipping culture in America changed. The question "Does everything require a tip?" kept popping up, and I really think all that led to where we are now.

Learn the language as soon as possible, at least basic level. Bureaucracy is going to be hell, there's no nicer way to put it. But I think you'll enjoy living in Italy. You are not happy where you are now, so it's great you're doing something about it. Best of luck!

Wish I could help with the strategy. I don't deal with this in any way, I genuinely don't care if someone likes me or not. I actually don't think about it. I understand this can be a problem and mess with one's confidence in a situation like yours, but the numbers speak for themselves - you are in a good place.
