Description
Experience italian culture in the countryside with a winemaker, a chef and two little girls!
Slow-life, eco-friendly practices, outdoor activities, wine and good food!
We live in italian countryside, in Piedmont. Alberto (1984) was born and raised in the countryside; he loves its rhythms and its traditions. Carla (1985) grew up between one city and the other, but learned to love the quiet life in Monferrato hills, ruled by seasons and Nature’s rhythm.
We believe that "returning to nature", to a life in harmony with the wonderful world around us, it’s a priceless treasure and a message that is essential to tell to those around us and to those who will take our place one day. We have two daughters: Frida (2017) and Cora (2022); an Italian Spinone dog and two cats.
We run two businesses: Alberto runs a farm which produces organic wine and firewood. We have about 5 hectares of vineyard, a family vegetable-garden, woods and a Olive tree field shared with another farmer. Carla is a professional chef; she has a "Lab" specialised in high quality catering, private chef, cooking classes, pastries and more...
We love to share free time with new friends and travel though different cultures by hosting foreign people.
Nature around us is beautiful and wild; there are several trails suitable for bicycles or walking. We are close enough to big cities like Torino, Genova or Milano, so it's possible to reach them by train and spend the day away. -
