  • Description

    Description

    We are a family of 5, my partner and I have a 8 years old daughter, and he has 2 teenagers aged 21 and 22 from a previous marriage that visit once or twice a week. We have been hosting for the past 4 years and had many great experiences... we can’t wait for the next one to begin! I work in an international company, whilst my partner is a civil engineer. We like sports, being in the open air, traveling and of course ... kids!

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    Ravenna is a small town very famous for it’s mosaics. Our house is 10 minutes walking distance from the historical city center and main tourist attractions, and a 15 minutes car ride to the beach. There is a train station that connects Ravenna to bigger cities like Bologna and there is some public transport available but not very efficient.
