    Description

    I'm Erasmo, I'm 58 years old, I live in Campania (Italy) in a little nice town on the mountain, Castelcivita (SA). My house is in the countryside, close to Calore river and to the Castelcivita Caves. There I have a wood olive laboratory and I produce objects for the home and I restaure ancient furnitures. I live with my family, my sons and nephews, and we have a B&B, close to my house that is also a Cultural Association about traditional Campania music, dance and song. I have a small farm with a donkey, dogs, cats.
    It's a lovely place at the Alburni Mountains feet,into the heart of the National Cilento Park, at 20 minutes from the Tirrenian sea and greek temples, Paestum, 120 km from Naples, 70 km from Salerno.
