You Deserve Good Gelato

Reasons to Travel the World, Embrace Failure, and Do the Sh*t That Scares You

De: Kacie Rose

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

In this funny and honest feel-good memoir, social media star Kacie Rose offers a refreshingly honest take on navigating a new life abroad.

In 2021, Kacie decided to leave her life as a pro dancer in New York City and move to Italy – and she never looked back. Okay, that isn't strictly true… In You Deserve Good Gelato, Kacie reflects on everything from travel fails and homesickness to the joy of culture shocks and the power of doing the s*** that scares you. Because life is too short not to.

In this joyful memoir, you will find:

• Personal essays that tell Kacie’s story and empower you to challenge yourself
• A candid outlook on life as an expat, covering everything from the terror of driving on Italian roads to the trials of speaking a new language and the genuine beauty of a slower pace of life
• Inspirational quotes that encourage you to step out of your comfort zone

By sharing her personal stories of life under the Tuscan sun, Kacie explains how travel is a privilege, why cultural differences are the coolest things in the world, and how there's a positive you can take away from literally any situation. You Deserve Good Gelato will have you taking the leap and embracing this big beautiful world that we call home.

Kacie Rose is a travel content creator living in Florence, Italy. After a life-changing solo trip and her own little "under the Tuscan sun moment," she made the official move to Italy in January 2021. Through positivity, authenticity, and humour, she began sharing culture shocks, travel tips, and life abroad across her social media, where her following quickly grew to a community of over 1.5 million people.

From explaining why you won't find "pepperoni pizza" and "lattes" in Italy, to sharing how to order a coffee, figure out the train system, and find authentic gelato, Kacie's goal is to encourage and help her community travel abroad by showing them the beauty of cultural differences, all the while reminding them that they are strong, deserving, and so much more capable than they think they are.

Italy, life, love and great gelato

I loved this vulnerable honest telling of taking a leap of faith, the benefits and privileges of travel and the reality of life in Italy.

Enjoyable story, easy listen and well performed

Enjoyed the storyline, enjoyable story, easy listen and well performed. Such relatable Italian stories, experiences and nuisances. Well done

Moved to tears

Listened it right before moving abroad and it was amazing. I will probably listen it again.

A love letter to Italy

As a French woman living in Northern Italy, I related to so much of what Kacie said. Listening to her journey made me take stock of all I had lived through and appreciate it (and myself) so much more.
This book is a must read for anyone used to pushing their dreams to the back of their minds for later. It's a love letter to Italy, to traveling, to kindness and to life in general. I absolutely loved it.

Just what my soul needed

I Just coulnd't stop crying. I'm about to move to Italy to my boyfriend's city and this is just what I needed.
Thank U

JUSTO LO QUE NECESITABA

La narración es perfecta, la autora se preocupa por articular cada palabra lo que para mi una hablante nativa de español ha sido un deleite.
Una historia de vida que ayuda a motivar a cualquiera; la autora te lleva por sus altos y bajos en su experiencia viviendo en el extranjero, disfrute cada uno de sus recuerdos materializados en este libro. Si estas en un momento de cambio en tu vida te lo recomiendo ampliamente.
@Kacie Rose, espero que algún día escribas un segundo libro y te aseguro que quizá no lo compre en físico sino que esperare para poder escuchar tu voz en formato de audiolibro; no sabes el bien que me haz hecho, muchas gracias por compartir este capitulo de tu vida.
