Description
We are a family composed by Giorgio (47) Renata (43) Marta (14) and Matteo (11). Our life is very animated, 'cause Marta and Matteo like play, sing, sport, go around with friends. Renata is a doctor (child neuropsychiatry) and Giorgio is Environmental Scientist. We also are volunteers for a Association that cooperates in Tanzania, so we love Africa and her people.
Our home is really cozy! Our home is in the center of Palermo. There's also a single room for our workawayers.

she is very cheerful! She is a very good painter and chef. Above all, Nena was very helpful for us and our children...they never forget her!
So, we are very happy to have the opportunity of meeting Nena and recommend her to anyone!
