Maria Paola,
50 years old, fascinated by the memory of the Trasimeno plain, as an only
wheat field, illuminated by night by the fireflies' intermittent light,
by those powerful white oxen, carrying carts filled with grapes , by the
taste of granny's tagliatelle, left Rome and moved to her dad's village,
close to the Trasimeno lake. Taking advantage of her region's knowledge,
her various work (entrepreneurial and not) experiences, trained with a
serious course sponsored by the Umbria Region, aimed at the creation of
a telecommunication cottage for the tourist information and promotion
of the regional culture, she thought to make her past come true, offering
again the tourist "the way we were".
Maria Paola has invented and personally realized this site and she will
be your interlocutor.
And she met... 
Stefania is a professional tour escort since more than six years of medium-high
level tourism, directs and organizes trips all over Italy, but especially
to Umbria and Tuscany. She devotes herself to her job with high enthusiasm
and professionalism.
Her large experience allowed her to guess that only creating a relation
with the local inhabitants and living their traditions it is possible
to understand and interiorize the arts and history of a region.
Her purpose is to be a liaison between all what described above and the
tourist, helping in overcoming the communication obstacle among people
of different languages and cultures.

and...... Antonella
After spending a few years as a stewardess with a big airline company,
Antonella left the city life and decided to live the enthusiastic
but also hard reality of a big country house, together with her family
; her husband (a sculptor) and two children.
She was completely involved in the discovery of the wonderful environment
around her, that’s why she also attended a CEE master to become
expert in agritourism and typical food productions.
She’s very proud of her own olive oil from the ancient trees
surrounding her hause, which is open to hospitality in several periods
of the year. |

and...... Sacha
The scent of woodfires caught under arches of stone
while dusk is in the air, a moment eternal in memory, the promise
to return again and again to a home in the remote. With his promise
kept for 11 years now, the travelling Anglo-German from Perugia,
teacher and student, will guide whoever ventures to explore Umbria
with passion and dedication. |

and...... Marta
Hi, I’m Marta and I,ve been living in Umbria
since I was born, 26 years ago, in a house immerged into the woods
of the Appennino umbro-marchigiano. The knowledge of spontaneous
and horticultural plants, and their traditional, medical and cookery
uses have been my greatest passion ever since. I’ve inherited
it from my mother, and therefore deeply matured it both studying
and working within such fields, constantly stimulated by the enchanting
nature that always, fortunately, surrounds me. I would like to share
and spread with semplicity the fruits silently offered by my land
to those who respectfully wished to approach it. |

and..... Andrea
My name is Andrea, I am 27 years old, I was born
in Tuscany, and I live in Umbria… These are the wonderful
places which accompanied my childhood and where I decided to come
back, after a long period of experiences abroad, especially in England,
where I studied for one year in order to improve my English.
However, it was time to take advantage, from the professional standpoint,
of my studies, my knowledge of my region and its traditions. Therefore,
even before graduating I started to make jobs related to my English
skills (translations and tourist guide).
Thanks to this job, now well developed, I could end to roam, happy
to come back to the wonderful land, which has fed my love for the
nature and art.
