Marta's Monterosa Blog

I am passionate about the Alps. They are my heart's home and the place where I would like to spend the last day of my life. I have been a tourist in the village of Champoluc in the Italian Monterosa for all my life and worked as a tourist operator in this area since more than 15 years.

I believe in respect for the special environment of this place that you can find only here. We all gain by enjoying its beauty, while trying to make a minimum impact at the same time. Leave it for our children in the future!

I believe in respect for people who live here with their traditions and culture, language, and work, their genuine products and delicious wines. They open their homes for us, tourists and meet us as their guests, if we are able to open our hearts for them. I have a friend who is a hotel owner and he says that when stressed people from the city come to his place, he tells them to sit down and take a drink before they even begin to worry if they have a room. Perhaps, we can bring a little of their kindness and calmness with us on our way back to the city.

My philosophy is to give back a little of what the mountains and the people from this place have given to me and to my family through my work, to communicate my philosophy and my passion to those who follow me on the blog, and in my trips as a tour operator.

If you would like to visit Champoluc, Gressoney, Alagna or other villages in the Aosta Valley, trek or ski in the Monterosa, discover Sardinia or other places we offer, contact us.

Kayaking in Genova Nervi

Italian Riviera is a popular destination during the summer. But why not make your staying there different? Marta recommends kayaking. Check her video!

Blue water, nice beach, and a bottle of the good wine - sounds like a good plan for the holiday. However, why not to experience Italian Riviera in a slightly different way? Rent a canoe or try one of courses in kayaking and admire the beauty of the Genova Nervi.

Contact us if you would like to plan your kayaking holidays there.

Marta had an occasion to try it during Easter and to test the Lo Scalo school in Genova, so watch her film below.

 

Italian #riviera is much more than lying on the beach drinking rosé wine. See what the old guys play with! #kayak #surfing Genova Nervi is big. Want to learn? The school is Genova canoa. We can help you there.
