Monia moved from Northern Italy to the Abruzzo region in central Italy, when she was five years old and considers herself a true Abruzzese. 

 After graduation, she did her postgraduate studies in the UK, achieving a master’s degree in technical translation. During her three years in England, she began to develop a passion for the countryside and country properties. “I loved the TV program Escape to the Country,” says Monia. “I watched it every evening and loved seeing the beautiful houses and countryside landscapes they showcased.” 

 After the UK experience, she lived in Spain and Japan, she speaks three languages fluently: Italian, English, and Spanish.  

 Monia has been working as an international real estate agency since 2011, she has founded Abruzzo Rural Property in 2012. 

In almost ten years Abruzzo Rural Property has sold hundreds of properties in Abruzzo and Molise regions to clients from all over the world. 

 Monia has participated to TV programs such as House Hunters International and A Place in the Sun, she has been interviewed by magazines and newspapers such as: Financial Times, Italy Magazine, Italia and by other Italian magazines and local press. 

She has been attending the annual Live and Invest Overseas conference with LIOS, both in the USA and Italy since 2017. 

 But Monia says her biggest reward is still just seeing the smiling faces of her happy clients and the many positive reviews they leave on Abruzzo Rural Property’s Facebook page. 

 “I’ve discovered that my travels have truly helped me develop a unique sensitivity toward my clients’ needs; I’ve learned how to interact with everyone, no matter where they’re from or what their background is,” Monia says. “Most of all, I feel I have an important mission because selling homes means forever changing the lives of the people who buy them!”
