Beschreibung
Experience italian culture in the countryside with a winemaker, a baker and two little girls!
Slow-life, eco-friendly practices, outdoor activities, wine and good food!
>> CURRENTLY LOOKING FOR CRAFTMANSHIP SKILLS {i.e. painting, bricks, wood, etc...} as we have to "restore" a tiny room in the house.
We live in italian countryside, in Piedmont. Alberto (1984) was born and raised in the countryside; he loves its rhythms and its traditions. Carla (1985) grew up between one city and the other, but learned to love the quiet life in Monferrato hills, ruled by seasons and Nature’s rhythm.
We believe that "returning to nature", to a life in harmony with the wonderful world around us, it’s a priceless treasure and a message that is essential to tell to those around us and to those who will take our place one day.
We have two daughters: Frida (2017) and Cora (2022); an Italian Spinone dog and a cat.
We have a farm which produces organic wine and firewood. We have about 25 hectares of vineyard, a family vegetable-garden and woods.
Carla also has a "Lab" specialised in cake-design, high quality catering, chef experiences and cooking lessons.
We live and work in our country house where we also have a B&B room.
We love to share free time with new friends and travel though different cultures by hosting foreign people.
Nature around us is beautiful and wild; there are several trails suitable for bicycles or walking. We are close enough to big cities like Torino or Milano, so it's possible to reach them by train and spend the day away.
IF YOU ARE LOOKING A PLACE TO FIX RESIDENCE in order to ask citizenship, our house is not the place. We are not available for this kind of hosting.Arten von Hilfe und Lernmöglichkeiten

You will have the opportunity to live rural italian life, surrounded by a stunning nature.
You will have a private space at the house and be able to try new experiences in winemaking and Italian cuisine.
From our place you can easily reach cultural cities like Milano, Torino and Genova, but also little towns with a lot to tell like Asti, Alba, Casale and touristic areas like Monferrato and Langhe.Projekte mit Kindern
