CIAO AMICI OPEN WORK SPACE STARTING IN APRIL Looking for a workspace for the day or even a few hours. Filomena has decided to share Ciao Amici with others. This year has been hard on so many people, having the whole family at home working, and trying to go to school, ALL TOGETHER. She understands how difficult it is to work at home so she came up with this great idea. Work space is available on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. How great will it be to have a place to work outside of your home whether you are working for

Come with us on March 14 to the beautiful town of Arezzo in Tuscany. Our guide Marco will take us through this medieval centre that became famous thanks to Roberto Benigni’s movie “Life is Beautiful” which was awarded with 3 Oscars in 1999. Visiting Arezzo is an unforgettable experience. This charming hilltop city still preserves the rhythm of life that other touristy cities have lost. Every brick or stone exudes centuries of history.

We've got our next stop on our Virtual tour of Italy and its going to be fantastic!!! Start your Valentine's day with a tour of Filomena's beautiful home town Muro Lucano, located in the Basilicata region. We will start at the Museum to see a beautiful view of the entire town, travel down the cobblestone roads and walk through the square. We want you to feel what it's like to live in a small Italian town so maybe we'll stop in a typical Italian home where they are preparing for a family meal, or peek in a house for sale
