--^_^---

In this apartment, you will find two human beings called Roberto and Simona. :)

We live in the historical center of Forlì, a nice city in the heart of Romagna (approx. 50 minutes by train from Bologna). We have a very comfortable and wide couch in our living room.

We have blankets and pillows for you. The bathroom is barely two steps far from your couch. We have towels too, if you want to have a shower.

1-2 days is fine, but if we're particularly in feeling we can host you more!

We don't smoke, but if you want you can go smoking on the balcony.

There's always music sounding through our rooms - oftimes played by ourselves. So if you're a musician, you're double-welcome! :)

If you'd like to share a meal with us, that would be great. Don't panic if you prefer vegetarian cuisine: we love it!

We can generally show you around and go for a beer or a concert. Better during weekends!

Please write us a message and tell us something about you if you're keen to be our guest! It would be a proof you've read this few words :)

Roberto and Simona

Roberto was one of the first people to answer the call to Caipirinha Party in Bologna, even before we met personally. What a good surprise! Roberto speaks a little portuguese, likes the same music that I do, was my companion for a caipirinha drinks and fun, so... a pity that my time in Italy will never be enough to share and learn everything I want with amazing people like him, but good to know that this time was special enough to leave me with a lot of "saudade" and good memories. Now I'm hoping this new friend to come and do a Caipirinha Party in the sands of a brazilian beach. Ci vediamo, caro!

I think that if you are looking for an interesting person, a lover of music, cinema, books and concerts, Roberto is the man that you HAVE to know. We met at a insane-festival made by an insane artist(probably pseudo-artist :D). Beetween fiddles, bodhrans and much beer you can have some good time ;)

I met Roberto in Parma meeting, and after I met him again, and hosted him and Simona, in Florikultura meeting.
He is a nice guy, full of energy and with a great culture. We share the same interest on movies; he is an active member of the community and is giving a lot of help to improve the Modena group. See you soon, Roberto!

Roberto has a brain in ebullition, he is a passionate person with many dreams, unlimited interests, and impressive knowledge of a lot of things. He is so kind, talkative, easy going, and gives you such positive energy! It was a pleasure to enjoy his company, definitely meet him! And don’t believe him if he says he doesn’t speak French and Spanish! : ) I don’t have any doubt on the fact that he will have the specific life he wishes. Really hope to meet you soon, all the best Roberto!

Roberto was a perfect guest! Very polite, inobtrusive, independent, cooks dinner and cleans dishes, and is overall an enjoyable company. My cats would agree :). Roberto is also a very interesting person, very intelligent, mature, with a huge knowledge of many things, and has daring dreams and determination! We enjoyed parma summer musical scene together and it was great! Roberto, all the best for your future and hope to see you in Parma again very soon! Perhaps over a nice dinner on the terrace with Paolo...

Roberto is a very creative guy, able to check out a screenplay from an ice-cream shop. It's a pleasure to hear him telling his stories and to listen to him singing Jeff Buckley's Hallelujah with an upside-down guitar. He's a very eclectic and determined person, and I believe he's an artist :) I hope to meet him again, better if looking like Ray Charles playing the piano in a black-and-white world

Roberto contacted me when he saw I had logged in in Catania. We met for an evening where he showed me around the city. He knows so much about the history of the area, it was amazing to hear all the stories. I highly recommend you contact him if you are in Catania:) Interesting to hear his views on conditions in Catania as well. Good luck on your move to Parma, and with the journalism career.

Pirru :) I feel very lucky to have met this amazing guy. He's probably the most open-minded person that I know and also kind, friendly and fascinating, always ready for a talk or for a good tea together.
And he's an eclectic artist :)
