I bought the apartment in Fossato di Vico because I love the area . So I like to inform my guests about anythink I appreciate here, especially what they never would find in turist guides, like hidden masterpieces, special excursions in Montecucco Natural Park and Frasassi Caves, and also food and wine specialties . I like to accompany my guests to local producers as I'm an AgriFood Economist and I made my personal selection. Sometimes I get my guests by my sail boat in the Marine Conero Park (1 hour by car close to Ancona)
