They had their first three children in Italy while living there, calling the country "a special place" and somewhere they would return to "at least once a year:"
"My husband, myself, and our three children moved to the US in 2015 and searched for a year for our first ever 'owned' home. We lived in Italy together and had our first three children in my family home in the city center of Rome, that home will always be our first-ever home and where our kids were born. It is and always will be a special place. We go back at least once a year!"

"We moved to London in 2013 to kick off our company which grew quickly, some of our biggest clients were US-based so we decided to open an office here on the East Coast. Florida has always been a place close to our hearts, my mother lived here briefly in her childhood, before coming to Rome where she met my father…"
She thoroughly enjoys "living on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico" and found their home in 2016. She spent "a year renovating it" and turning it into their dream home. They then had their fourth child in that house, making them "truly an international family:
"The weather here is gorgeous and I am very accustomed to extreme heat having grown up in the south of Italy, I love living on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico, it truly is a paradise. We found this home in 2016 and spent a year renovating it and making it into our very special, safe place to raise our kids. We were blessed to welcome Penelope our fourth child, born at home, like my previous three, this time in Florida, making us truly an international family!"
