6. Second Home In Italy

Most of the time, Clara and Alex Thole enjoy the breathtaking view of Puget Sound from their Mediterranean-style home in Mukilteo, Wash. Their other days are spent discovering destinations across the country and around the world. For Clara, one location holds a special place in her heart -- Montoggio, Italy, the home of her heritage. Hoping to reconnect with her Italian roots, the Tholes have given themselves a budget of $200,000 and three weeks to find their own piece of Italy.
