this flat was my home, i had to move to give my daughter her one bedroom . The venetian furniture of my family gives an intimate atmosphere. The flat is sunny and bright with a nice view on the oldest church of Venice ..San Giacometto di Rialto...the Rialto Bridge is at few steps ...the fish and vegetable market( just at the door) give you the feeling of traditional Venice cooking , a part of the soul of the city....you can feel at home ....all the bacari are waiting for you near by with Spritz and wine. I am a lawyer with my office in Mestre, my goal was to live in Venice to be able to enjoy the feeling of the early morning and the late evening when the silence give you the quiet and the calm to walk around in an old atmosphere.. I like to meet my friends at the traditional cafe , bacari and osterie..I love to know new persons from other countries...many of my guests are now good friends..I think that travel means to know the persons who live in the city and the city itself..no one can introduce you to a new place better then who has chosen to live there...i am very happy to meet that kind of persons who are able to appreciate who gives time to explain the history, the monuments, the exhibitions that give to Venice a special charm and atmosphere..i travel a lot for my job ..it is a pleasure for me to take a coffe with some of my guests in their countries..this is a good way to open your mind and your life to others...it is a great gift for me to host guests who respect my home as theirs...it is difficult to trust a new person to host her in your home giving a so special and important part of your life...it can be a way to pay the mortgage but also to give a nice remember of you and your home ...i think that Venice is still a place where we are good friends with our neighbors..we are few and we know more or less each others...old Venice hospitality are still able to give a positive feeling and to allow others to enter in this old and friendly way of life ...i really hope that you will have a nice memories of your holidays in Venice and my home also .
