Keith Richardson, a retired educator from Southern California, sought a life free of American commercialism and found it in Nardò, Italy. He purchased a renovated two-bedroom home for an affordable price, drawn by Puglia’s unspoiled charm and its absence of fast-food outlets. After years of traveling to Italy, Richardson’s focus turned towards living a slower lifestyle, connecting with a US-based real estate consultant who led him to Nardò. He embraced the picturesque coastal region, emphasizing its unique culture and desirable lifestyle away from the commercialized U.S.
