Ciao!
We are a Canadian/Sicilian family with two labradors living on the beautiful island of Lipari, on the northeast coast of Sicily, Italy.
We have traveled the world, studied and worked in the city, and now have decided to make a family in the wonderful wild countryside of this volcanic island, and run guesthouses here.
We are now mostly looking for help with the children.
We live in a beautiful big independant villa 15 minutes drive from the main town. We lead a simple eolian lifestyle of nature, beach/sea and homemade sicilian cooking!
There are many things to do here such as swimming, snorkling/diving, fishing, boat, trekking (including volcano climbing), walking, cycling, picnics, going for aperitivo and discovering the other islands that make up the Eolian archipelago. The weather is wonderful for swimming until November, and the winter is mild.
Lipari (the Aeolian islands) is a UNESCO world heritage site.
