    Just found your channel - diving into all the past episode so I can follow along! I'm about to do the same thing in France. 18 weeks traveling & searching.over 3 years... Also headed to Northern Italy in June for vacation so who knows, I could change my mind and do Italy instead!!!

    Great info. Unfortunately that’s their style. They try to take advantage until people then stop trusting. That’s the negative side of the process unfortunately.. good luck with your projects 😊

      Yes they do. Thankfully having a project manager who knows prices, reputations and quality of work has made all the difference. I also better understand who is asking for a ‘kick back’ so I don’t take their advice and stay clear of them.

    Thank you very much for all your info, it is greatly appreciated. I have one question please : how much is the setup for StarLink for Mussomelli? Thank you.

      The service is flawless and set up was super easy. You plug it in and it moves around a little to scan the sky. It immediately begins to show on the app the best position for coverage and over the next I think 12 hours it fine tunes it. The app shows all kinds of metrics but my downtime over 24 hours is usually around .3 seconds. Because my house is large with thick stone walls I did need to get a repeater (on Amazon) in order for it to reach the furthest room downstairs.

      @@TheAmateursAbroad thank you ever so much. What to expect in terms of money, like a rough figure, please?

    Clever to map out and label, cause sometimes you just gotta assume… 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

      Thanks. It also let my mind relax a bit that I made it as clear as I could with the language barrier.

    Does the Proj Manager oversee all the work and get the workers? Flat rate or percentage?

    • @TheAmateursAbroad
      @TheAmateursAbroad  5 місяців тому +2

      Flat fee for the job. You go over the scope of work and she gives a project price. Good question!
