Company information

Welcome to my wonderful houseboat! I live here with my two children Rocco and Dante. You may have understood that I come from Italy! I left my hometown Venice and my "adopted city" Rome, spent 10 years traveling to different continents and finally I chose to move here in Netherlands five years ago, to try to make a change of my life. I have found a wonderful and exciting city that can give back a lot from hard work. In addition to the "cancer" like me who love sea, open spaces bright and clean but at the same time be able to find any stimulus from a dynamic and cosmopolitan city, I found the perfect place to continue my journey!
