My plan after finishing work has been to stay out of the USA for 330 days of the 365 days since I left for Italy in August 2017. This means I will not need to pay tax on my salary from Italy. So Plan A - Part 1 was to go on a Rick Steves tour of Sicily June 19 to 29. Plan A - Part 2 started today when I arrived in Vienna, Austria to go on a Trafalgar Tour in mostly Eastern Europe June 20 to July 15. I have travel insurance so can bail and switch plans if needed. Plan A - Part 3 is to return to Rome on July 15 and fly to Washington, DC on July 18 to meet Ron and then take our two youngest grand children on our last grand children trip to Costa Rica July 20 to July 28. The final part of Plan A is to fly back to Oregon with Ron on August 1. We are optimistic that we Plan A will work out.

After arriving in Vienna we took a bus and then walking tour. We had a delicious welcome dinner. I started to meet some of my fellow travelers. This is a much larger tour with 45 people. One of the fun things we saw was a display in a bakery about the world cup. All of the display is edible.

To clarify, you have still paid lots of taxes on your salary - to Italy. The question is whether you can avoid the double-taxation from two countries, right?
Curious how the bigger tour will feel after a nice small group in Sicily. Hopefully, you will be able to meet some people and have some great conversations. Look forward to hearing all about it!
