Mi casa est tu casa... what a unique and generous invitation! Rarely experienced such a warm welcoming... my visit has been an extraordinary experience, from the first moment, when Yuri picked me up at the bus station and when Silvia embraced my hands... "feel like at home".. Yuri and Silvia let me dive deep into that amazing universe of art, creativity, harmony, peace, beauty, power of nature, ENERGY they created.. they let me participate for a while. Yuri sharing his thoughts and motivations behind his work(s) made me understand. Remind us of our roots, bring people together, build bridges, create community, be an ambassador of life, hope, humanity, friendship, beauty and .... Silvia provided insights in the beginnings and moreover, she is the one cultivating this fantastic garden with the flowers Yuri is photographing at night.

One day my daughter texted us to quickly come down because she had found "wonderful and beautiful art in a place where she didn't expect it"!

I due padroni di casa, Silvia e Yuri, hanno una rara virtù: sanno capire le persone "dentro" e mettono a nudo le peculiarità di ognuno con rispetto, stima, affetto, genuino interesse. Spazio abitativo perfetto per svolgere molteplici attività: dalla più consueta (galleria d'arte) a corsi di yoga, pilates, pittura, enologia, presentazioni di libri .... ogni arte può essere ospitata in un luogo fresco, verdissimo, accogliente e molto, molto particolare. Raramente ho trovato un luogo così ricco di stimoli! Si raggiunge rapidamente da Milano in treno (un'ora) o in macchina senza problemi. E anche il viagggio è appagante, la natura ti circonda e...
