The wood for the roof has arrived, so time to haul everything up! Everything is 4 meters long so they delivered it as I could not fit it in the back of my Defender.

I just uploaded a kindly different video about how to import a vehicle into Italy.
At first I heard that it is quite a difficult process and if you do not know where to start it can hold you back quite a bit.
Importing your own, beloved vehicle is quite an important part when moving abroad, at least for me it was.
I have done quite the hours of research and decided to make a short video guide as a help to others who might feel overwhelmed at first about the bureaucracy. It is a quite tedious process but perfectly doable if you follow the few steps.
I hope it helps!
Be sure to follow the rest of my renovation project in Italy!
