I founded “Francyspasta” in 2017, that won several Airbnb Experiences awards, and changed completely my life in better.Time after time I created a group of passionate hosts like me, and now we are a crew of pasta makers, Gaia, Luisa, Tommaso, all very special people who will make our time together unique, in the magical atmosphere of our workshop-house, full of love, light and art in the heart of our splendid Tuscany.
