Mariagiovanna, who holds a degree in Law, speaks fluent English, French, and Spanish. After spending several years abroad, she decided to return to her beloved homeland to assist her mother Linda in managing the Bed & Breakfast. For them, "hosting" is not just a family tradition, but also a genuine joy!
