I’m Francesca. I’m from Italy. I’ve been living in Naples for over 10 years where I studied New Media Art at Accademia di Belle Arti di Napoli. My studies taught me to use my creativity to mastermind projects to create positive effects.
I’m determined, open minded and sociable.
I’m Eliza. I’m from England. I’m a qualified English Teacher and expert traveler. I’ve been traveling since I was 18, but Italy has been my home for the past 3 years. I fell in love with the language and culture, as well as an Italian and now I want to build my future here in Cilento.
I’m hard-working, friendly and creative.

We met 3 years ago in Naples and fell in love, creating a life and a home together.
We were both working full time jobs but were struggling to thrive.
The relentless rhythms of city life were eating away at us and something was missing.
During camping trips away, we’d stop and look at eachother and notice how happy we were.
We would joke about dropping everything, leaving the city to go traveling. We had a desire to live in a slower and more conscious way, engage with projects that we enjoyed and made us feel fulfilled. But it felt impossible.
Over time, this feeling of dissatisfaction grew until one day, we stopped and we asked ourselves.
‘Why can’t we actually do it? What’s stopping us from following this dream?’.
That was it. The decision was made.
After a year of planning, we left Naples and started traveling to try and learn how to live more sustainably. We’ve spent the past six months traveling around Portugal and France meeting like-minded people and learning new skills. We’ve perfected our eco lodge plan and now we are back in Italy searching for a property to begin.
Join us on our journey of GROWING GREENER!
WHAT IS OUR PROJECT?
We want to open up an eco lodge in the heart of Cilento, Campania.
We want to create a space for travelers to visit, but in a slower way. We plan to give our guests a unique opportunity to connect with nature and embrace the local community and culture.
We want to become a reference point for sustainability in Cilento, organizing markets, musical and artistic events and workshops for the residents and visitors.
