Live the town life
A three-days program you cannot miss
"The morning in the city is not a real morning;
the shepherd's morning, that's the real morning!"
Mehmet Murat Ildan, a Turkish writer
Everything started here.
It is impossible to talk about Sicilian food without mentioning cheese.
Unlike other jobs, the shepherd's life
is full of precise steps that can not be missed.
It is fascinating to see them in action while preparing the soft flavory ricotta.
This three-days program
will give you a glimpse
into the magic of Sicily's deep essence:
the countryside life and its agriculture.
Valledolmo
is a place to call home.
Life is slow here,
and you will take a chance to experience this authentic rural side of Sicily
with this course.
