Description
Hi All,
I live in the countryside near Turin and the famous Avigliana lakes, Val di Susa.
Our family consists of two adults (myself and one of my daughters) and 10 Siberian huskies, because I am a volunteer of a rescue association and I am passionate about sleddog.
We have a beautiful house with a big garden and mountains view, surrounded by nature.
We are located roughly 4km from the village center where buses are running to Turin center.
Our house is near the woods and you can easily reach many beautiful hiking and bike trails in the middle of nature.
We both work part-time. My daughter can teach you Italian as she is a primary school teacher.
We love reading and we have a huge library.
Respect for nature is fundamental for our family, we are both pescatarians.
