  • Description

    Description

    We are a mixed couple in our fourties living a little outside Bergamo. Salvatore is Italian originally from the region of Calabria in the south of Italy, and Maria is Romanian. We have our own company where we hold courses with certification for the security in the working place. In our free time we like to go to eat out or go for a walk in the mountains or by the lake, sometimes we go shopping in the nearest commercial centre. In general we have quite a calm lifestyle.
