Casa di Rossella

Here in Pentedattilo, an abandoned village in the countryside of Calabria, living with Rossella will shed light on traditional Italian culture. You will learn about the food, people, and lifestyle of Southern Italy. This destination attracts tourists from all over Europe, thus you will also be able to exchange experiences with an international crowd.

Rossella, la contadina (farmer) of Pentedattilo is Calabrese through and through with an open and accepting mind, welcoming people of diverse identities, cultures, and backgrounds into her world. In addition, Maka, from Mali, is the goat shepherd and farmer working together with Rossella to preserve the farming tradition here in Calabria. Together, we will share farm-to-table meals together everyday where we will talk over a range of topics and share languages.
