Description
Hello! We are Corinna, Alberto, Maria (13), Giovanni (10), Gioele (7) and Sofia (4).
Alberto works as an artisan and Corinna is a full time mum.
Our children are homeschoolers, meaning that they don't go to school but they learn from life and everyday experiences, we try to follow their natural curiosity and encourage the children to develop their talents.
We love art and creating with different materials, Maria and Giovanni are now learning to play the guitar.
We like travelling as it is a moment of growth for the whole family, it is culturally and mentally stimulating to get to know different life style. We had experiences of living in ecovillages and we are now planning to host a workshop about building a mud oven.
