Hébergement
We offer a little but sweet private room in our house, with modern common bathroom (look at the photos on the profile). :-)
All the waters flow into the land so please don't bring soaps, toothpaste and chemical products that are not biodegradable.
we suggest our place to people who love quite and sometimes it could be possibile to stay alone in the country side (when we have to do stuff in our daily life, even out of the land). If you have your own car, you are free to go anywhere. Otherwise i can take you to the metro/ bus stop, depending from my working times and time table etc.
Note that there is limited to no public transportation on Sunday and on Saturday and that we can't come to pick you up in Catania (airport nor city center).
The house is almost 5 minute by car from the nearest village.
we also love funny evenings with our friends, eating dinner together & playing cards or making music.
We don't like rave party , drugs or big and loudly events.
Once you commit we expect you to come... it causes us a lot of difficulties when someone doesn’t show up. So please be transparent, let us know if you are not sure
