About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Reunite mankind with the earth

ABOUT ME

We live in a nice 1-bedroom apartment in the very center (pedestrian zone) of Faenza. The place if within walking distance from everything - the market, the cinema, the bars, restaurants, etc...
We share everything, but the couch is yours ;-), we promise...

We are:

Energetic, outspoken, extrovert, funny, curious, "good timers". We love to meet people when we travel and when we don't. We believe in the richness of cultural (bio)diversity and live to preserve it.
"Absorbe, without being absorbed"

PHILOSOPHY

I believe. (Simone)
Me, too! (Hande)

Teach, Learn, Share

We know the surrounding of Faenza quite well, the best-kept secrets, and the popular hang-outs.
Food is my biggest passion, so I can teach how to cook - Italian or Fusion. (Simone)
