if u r eu citizen u can work everywhere in eu. European Union citizens (cittadini comunitari) may enter Italy with a national identity card or valid passport. EU nationals who move to Italy to live, work or study for longer than three months have the right to residency and may apply for a permanent residence card, the Carta di Soggiorno Cittadini U.E. from their commune. This card will be necessary for several important transactions such as buying a car in Italy. The family members (spouse, children, parents and dependents) of an EU citizen in employment in Italy are automatically entitled to residency. Non-working EU citizens and their family are entitled to residence cards if they register with the national health service or have independent health insurance and can show sufficient economic resources. EU citizens applications The following documents are required when applying for a residence card: valid passport date of arrival in Italy and reason for stay details of spouse and dependant family members if residence cards is needed for them People in employment need also supply: Employee: declaration from the employer or a copy of the job contract Self-employed person: authorisation from the Chamber of Commerce Four recent, passport photographs Further documentation may be required for students. The Carta di Soggiorno is issued by the Commune of residence.

No, any citizen of the EEC can work legally in any other member country without the need for a visa. You may need to file residency paperwork if you plan to stay longer than a couple of months to receive health care etc. You really should check with the Italian embassy / consulate to make sure.

You cannot "switch" visas between countries. You have to go through the whole process again for Germany and hope to get a visa approved. Your status in Italy means nothing to Germany
2 :
You will need to go through a similar process for Germany again. Europe has open borders and 25 countries issue common short term visa valid for up to 90 days. The issuance of a national visa however is subject to the individual immigration law of the respective country. To apply for a residence permit in Germany (U.S. citizen can do that after arrival in Germany) you will need to have a work contract. Your prospective employer can only instate a non-EU citizen for qualified or highly qualified employment if the Federal Employment Agency (Bundesagentur für Arbeit) has given their approval. To get approval it must be shown that the gap could not be filled by the local workforce and the workforce of the European Union, a very bureaucratic process. The application for a residence permit (Aufenthaltstitel) can be made at the Foreigners Office (Ausländerbehörde) which covers your place of residence in Germany. Each bigger town has its own foreigners office. If you reside in a small village or rural community the office will in general be at the district administration office (Kreisverwaltung) of the county. In order to apply for a residence permit you must be able to show that you are registered at the local residents' registration office (Einwohnermeldeamt).

Hi I'm italian and write about tuscan food, so the mist immediate answer would be Tuscany. But I suggest Emilia as a first choice and Tuscany as your second. Ciao
2 :
Italian cuisine is strongly related to each region/area, so in each region you can find more specific traditional dishes. So, there actually isn't one particular region that can be considered better for mastering Italian cuisine.
3 :
try Sicily, my grandmother was from there and made great Italian food.
4 :
Pinguino is right; cooking is regional here in Italy. You can specialize in one region, but it might be a good idea to move around to various regions to get a solid overview of the different cuisines here. Where I live in Emilia Romagna, the food is excellent, but that's also true of the other regions.
