George Clooney Says Italy Changed His Life For The Better

September 2nd, 2010

Actor/director George Clooney is doing pretty well these days. A new movie out, The American, a successful career, and even a new romance. One of the things that he credits for helping him to enjoy his life a little bit more? Moving to Italy

“What changed my life in a very pleasant and unexpected way was buying the villa in Laglio. That was a pure investment decision – I thought I would maybe spend a few weeks vacationing there.

“But then I [realized] how beautiful life was in Italy and how it really helped calm me and not feel so pressured. I could also work productively and bring my friends over to keep me company.” [Female First]

It’s kind of sad that Clooney had to move all the way to Italy for that, but I have to admit that moving away from where you are most of the time, with all of its pressures can really be great for your mental health.

As for me, I just move from the living room, to a bubble bath. Not as far as Italy, but it’s my 20 minutes of sanity, and cheaper than a plane ticket. :-)
