Perched on Italy’s far northeastern edge, this seafront city often feels like a crossroads — not quite like the rest of Italy, but not completely apart. You’ll see a mix of grand boulevards, Viennese-style coffee houses, and locals wandering down to the sea, whatever the weather.
Trieste’s quality of life is a mix of big-city culture without the crush and a gentle rhythm of local markets and seaside strolls. Living in Trieste means nipping to Slovenia for lunch or lingering with a capo in B coffee on sunny Piazza Unità.
