CURRENT MISSION

We love travelling and meeting people, see how different and unique we are, see how our cultures are interesting also in their very little nuances.

ABOUT US

We've become a Family! in January 2013 Agata was born and in March 2017 Giacomo was born; in October 2018 the cat Petito joined the adventure.
Our house is Family-Friendly.

***

I am very curious about anything, I love listening to people, I love music, philosophy and stories.

Alessandro plays bass guitar and he is a total fanatic of 60s psichedelia, garage rock, stoner rock. He is a very talented musician but he will be a rock'n'roll star when he will retire from his job in nuclear medicine. :)

PHILOSOPHY

Meeting and learn from everybody. Geertz once said something like "it is only from the differences that we realise how and who we are". that's it. if i can't see what white is, i'll never know that black is black.
