Description
We are an Italian/American family that run a bed and breakfast in a rural area near the 'Dolomiti Bellunesi' National Park.
We live in the original house of Christian's great grandparents.
Amy moved to the Dolomites a few years ago from Bishop California.
Our daughter Katerina was born in July 2013 and our son Noah was born in June 2016. We also have a very nice and friendly dog, Zucca.
We enjoy the peacefulness and stillness of living in nature, surrounded by trees
and next to a river. At the same time we like to share our home with those who enjoy nature and are curious to discover this hidden part of the Dolomites.
The closest village is 2 kilometers away and the main town of Feltre is 6 kilometers. Feltre is very nice and the 'old' town center is surrounded by medieval walls. Feltre has a train station which makes travel easy to other cities. Venice is one and half hours by train.
Our house is located conveniently because it is between the mountains and the venetian towns full of art.

Ok, marco has been very flexible with tasks and he has been essential as a connection and mediator with other volunteers and guests of the bed and breakfast. He is very good with work (he can or willing to repair everything) but at the same time he is very interested on the social/geographical/historical part of the project (Workaway).

But apart from this we had a lot of fun cutting trees and splitting them in half. It can be a hard work in the woods so Christian prepared picnic meals to keep us happy.
