Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
We're living in a small village, Corsanico, with very nice open minded people. In the church is a famous organ and every summer there are a lot of concerts. Its 10km to the beaches and Viareggio, which is a town with 60.000 inhabitants. People love to walk in the summer on the promenade and go shopping and dining. Viareggio is an old Italian seaside resort with beautiful buildings in style art nouveau. In the winter time the carnevale of Viareggio with its artistic big trucks is a must see.

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
Corsanico is close to the medieval town Lucca (30km) with its old wall. Pisa with its leaning tower is the same distance and the best airport to fly in. Florence is 90 km away and fantastic with its Renaissance art and buildings. If you like Puccini operas, you will love the open air performances in summer time at Torre di Lago (20km), at the lake of Massaciuccoli also called lake Puccini, because he used to live there and composed all his operas there. If you like to play golf, 5 golf resorts are close by.
In Viareggio you can rent bikes and discover the beaches or you go hiking in the Apuan alps. There is a lot to enjoy! :-)
Our home exchange - here are our Preferences and House Rules
We love to meet our guests and give you some tips about the area, we are very interested in other cultures. We did three home exchanges with Homelink, 2 in 2004 and 2005 and one in 2020 and we let our apartment. Therefore we are used to guests and respect their private atmosphere, but if you like to connect we are there, if we don't exchange simultaneously.
The apartment is not adapt for children under 2 years.
There is one thing which is important for us as your guests: we need a large bed, starting from 160cm width.
