About Me

CURRENT MISSION

we are very happy to meet new people and give a chance to our son by letting him discover how difference is a key to becoming a better human. Since we both teach at school we generally tend to offer hospitality over the week end. This means that we are not always having someone over!

ABOUT ME

Antonio likes reading and writing short stories and novels. Margherita enjoys photography. Giacomo would like to be a basket player.

Margherita: curly explosion of love! I like any kind of animals but cats and monkeys are the ones i like most. i love photography.

we LOVE "furriari" (a sicilian verb meaning to wander about).

GIACOMO: 13 years old.

PHILOSOPHY

margherita: don't think too much over something!
antonio: squeeze your brain in search for a solution!
giacomo: do and do and do and do and alllllllways do!
