“Honest conversations about risk, resilience, cultural adaptation, and reinvention— with Amira Maklouf.”
Coming soon
A change of country. A different career. The end of something familiar. Or the quiet realisation that you want your life to look different.
Through honest conversations, we’ll look beyond the polished introductions to the choices, uncertainties, and experiences that shape a life.
Not a formula for starting over. A chance to hear how others have found their way—and perhaps recognise something of ourselves in their stories.
Wednesday, November 11, 2026: Join the Siena Expat Club for an international aperitivo at Ristorante Il Tufo in Piazza del Campo!
First Chapter
Meet English-speaking founders, leaders, creatives, professionals, and community builders who chose—or were compelled—to make Italy part of their story. Italy is the setting, not the boundary.

The Host
A host who believes every honest conversation can open a new possibility.
Amira creates space for stories that go beyond achievement headlines and uncover the human story behind the outcome.
We have the power to make a real difference.
Our mission this year is to make it possible for young girls in Uganda to attend school. And it’s not just about providing teachers, classrooms, paper, and pencils—it starts with giving these girls a way to manage their menstrual cycle.
Sadly, without access to proper sanitary solutions, hundreds of young women in Uganda are forced to give up on school, denying themselves the chance to learn, grow, and create a brighter future.
Discover how we are making a positive impact and join us on this journey. Together, we can empower these girls and change lives.
