Glad you approve of the gathering idea! I used to open my doors to anyone who could make it down the track when i lived on the blind side of Etna, and we had some wonderful times, so i'm hoping something of the same spirit might apply to Ofena.

The web site has a form you can fill in for questions.

In Carrufo you know when someone is home as they leave the key in the front door!
When we are out walking and someone sees us we get called over for a glass of their homebrew. I think that, and the fact I am related to everyone in Carrufo, Ofena and Villa Santa Lucia, is what makes it so appealing. The locals also seem eager to have new "blood" in the villages. Without us strangers the comunes would die in a few years.
