We live in Santa Maria in Stelle, a small village on Verona’s hills, towards the north, 7 km far from the town.
You can reach the city in 10 minutes driving or 20 minutes cycling (there is a cycling track that starts near our house), unfortunatly there are not so many public transports available (the bus doesn’t pass so often).
From our house you can have beautiful walks on hills around our village (450 m hight) or visit a IV century b. C. paleochristian hypogeum.
From S.Maria in Stelle you can easily go to Verona (since 2000 Verona is one of the UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITES in Italy), have trips to the Monti Lessini and Monte Baldo, sunbathe by the lake of Garda, have fun in Gardaland (the largest amusment park in Italy).
Other cities rich in monuments, museums, history, culture, (and perfect for shopping!) like Venice, Mantua, Bologna, Vicenza, Padua, Trento and Milan, can easly be reach by train.
Reach the Dolomites takes just 1 our driving from here, even closer is the Altipiano di Asiago (higlands north of Vicenza) perfect for excursions, trekking, climbing, and skiing. The Adriatic coast, for swimming or having fun, is also close.

How to get here…….
It is a very easy and fast! (GoogleMaps)
From North (Brenner), East (Venice or Trieste), South (Bologna or Florence) and West (Milan or Turin), reach the“A4” highway.
Leave the highway at the “VERONA EST” exit, than follow “VALPANTENA” signs for 7-8 km.
At the junction you turn right for “Boscochiesanuova” and go straight for the next 3 Km.
Just after “Veronesi” feed factory and an “Agip” petrol pump turn left, than turn right at the round-about, following the “Santa Maria in Stelle” sign.
At the next crossroad you turn right then take the first road on left. Park the car in the parking area and ring at Mr. Fenzi - Mrs Puttini bell, the 76/c of Pantheon street.

Home exchange, through relationships with families of different countries directly into their houses, give us the possibility to live travel experiences together with our children.

visiting towns and villages, if it’s possible by bike, and reading a good book in the evening.
Moreover we love to go to the mountains: we have a good experience of challenging excursions, trekking, and climbing.

In summertime we like going to sea on free beaches without services and snorkeling or reading a book in the sun. Our sons Luca e Pietro go boating with a river kayak.
In he last few years we have been organizing with other families, a sort of “self catering common holidays”, every year in a different place around the country, that let us develop relationships among families and spend time together with our children.
With firm belif, we take part to peace and solidarity initiatives.
