Our history before the Accidental Tourist:
Our main home is a watchtower built is 1146, which later became an orphanage, then a farmhouse, and has been in our family for 6 generations:
Michelangelo, Galileo, Rodolfo, Giovanni, Majla, Eva and Giotto.
Most importantly, during WWII, total strangers found shelter and many lives were saved in this family villa.
As heirs of this abode, we want to honor its vocation:
To Turn Strangers into Friends
