This was a wonderful experience. the hosts, Paola and Massimo, were delightful and very attentive. They were patient with me as I tried to speak the Italian I've learned. The food was delicious and the best part was being able to help in the preparation of the dinner! They were also very accommodating to my sister-in-law who is vegan, and they prepared special dishes just for her!
