Moving to Italy

We moved to Italy to build a life around food, wine, travel and community.

One life. One heart. One story.

Ciao!

Ciao, Hi, Hello

We did a thing. We sold everything and moved to Italy to create a dream we’ve had for a long time.

We’ve travelled a lot. Exploring, eating great food, tasting wine, seeing places we’ve dreamed about. After all, there is only so much time left, yah know? We were always looking for experiences that combined food, wine and an opportunity to meet new people, but the more we travelled, the more we realized we wanted to create a place like that, a place where people could come to live out their own dreams.  

So we did something crazy. We left everything. The house, the cars, the jobs, and bought a one way ticket to Italy with two not very enthusiastic cats, and 10 overly full duffle bags.

Now, we’re living in Italy and currently looking for our stone house, where we can bring our hospitality experience to life.

We’re building this for people who want something deeper from Italy than a hotel and a tour. People who want to share great food, a bottle of wine, and great conversation around our table.

Join Us

Our dream is to have you join us, around our table, for food, wine, conversation and of course, Italy.

We can imagine it already. You’re standing here with your glass of prosecco (which we made sure you had the second you stepped out of the car), letting out a deep breath as you take in the countryside of Italy. We can’t wait to show you your suite, to let you unpack, to have you wander into the kitchen, drawn to the smell of Brent prepping tonights homemade dinner, while I choose the perfect wines to go with each course.

We are creating a place where you can exhale, let the stress disappear, laugh, take a dip in the pool. A cold aperitivo suddenly appears. Small bites show up at sunset, you don’t have to worry about a thing, only enjoying your experience. This is exactly how we want you to visit Italy.

Every detail has a story. The food we make, the wine we choose, the thoughtful details in your room, the stone farmhouse, even the design of everything around you has been prepared with intention and love.

And the food, of course. We are making our dinners the highlight of the day. After a day of exploring or simply laying by the pool, golden hour makes way for time around our table, where conversations come naturally, stories and laughter are shared, and memories are made. We want you to feel like this a place you will most certainly come back to.

Live an extraordinary life. Embrace the perfectly imperfect. Open your heart to the magic of Italy, the food, the wine, and the people.
