Retire Rich in Freedom | Ep 62
In this episode of the House of Peregrine podcast, Mickelle sits down with Eva Noelle Fassbender, founder of The Sardinian, to explore the romantic and courageous journey that led Eva to Sardinia and to a life she never planned but always felt called to. What began as a quest to uncover her family roots through a decades-old postcard became a sweeping story of reconnection, unexpected love, and finding freedom in the rhythms of island life.
Eva shares how a spontaneous trip to Naples to trace her long-lost grandfather blossomed into a life-changing reunion with estranged relatives and ultimately led her to Sardinia, where she fell in love both with the land and a local man. With warmth and clarity, she discusses how building a life abroad isn’t just about location - it’s about aligning your values with a place that supports the kind of life you want to live.
Now living in Cagliari and running The Sardinian, Eva helps others navigate their own moves to Italy, blending practical insights with soulful encouragement. She offers orientation, resources, and a first point of connection for anyone craving a slower, richer life.
