WEBVTT

00:00:22.800 --> 00:00:25.120
We are located in Gioiosa Marea,

00:00:25.123 --> 00:00:29.823
we are in the hamlet of Santa Margherita just above San Giorgio

00:00:29.828 --> 00:00:32.526
halfway between Gioiosa Marea and Patti.

00:00:32.528 --> 00:00:37.528
As you can see we have the Gulf of Patti behind us

00:00:37.534 --> 00:00:40.034
and the Sanctuary of Tindari that watches over us,

00:00:40.039 --> 00:00:44.339
it is a place with a breathtaking view of the Aeolian Islands.

00:00:44.345 --> 00:00:49.745
It was born in the early 1900s, as an agricultural company

00:00:49.749 --> 00:00:55.049
as regards the production of oil and wine,

00:00:55.053 --> 00:00:58.453
then slowly, thanks to the Benincasa family,

00:00:58.459 --> 00:01:03.759
Citrus fruit production is introduced

00:01:03.764 --> 00:01:07.864
and especially almonds, we are rich in almonds.

00:01:07.868 --> 00:01:10.564
Little by little, as generations pass by,

00:01:10.569 --> 00:01:13.569
we have arrived at today, where the Mollica brothers,

00:01:13.574 --> 00:01:17.274
together with his mother Carolina and his father Antonino,

00:01:17.277 --> 00:01:23.874
they have created a structure that is fortunate enough to accommodate 54 people.

00:01:27.482 --> 00:01:31.782
Being an agritourism company, we have rooms,

00:01:31.792 --> 00:01:34.892
so we host a lot of people, we have a restaurant,

00:01:34.897 --> 00:01:41.097
which is fortunate enough to host just as many people,

00:01:41.102 --> 00:01:46.502
then we produce oil, obviously, we produce almonds

00:01:46.508 --> 00:01:51.108
and from the citrus fruits that we manage to collect,

00:01:51.113 --> 00:01:56.413
In addition to selling them, we produce our own jams.

00:02:00.419 --> 00:02:05.719
We are usually lucky enough to host families with many children,

00:02:05.725 --> 00:02:09.725
because this is a place that enjoys about 14 hectares,

00:02:09.729 --> 00:02:13.129
so the spaces for children are perfect.

00:02:13.133 --> 00:02:16.533
We also have a small farm with animals,

00:02:16.536 --> 00:02:19.336
a nice swimming pool and playground.

00:02:19.341 --> 00:02:26.741
Furthermore, most of our customers come from Northern Europe,

00:02:26.743 --> 00:02:30.043
maybe because they are in love with Sicily and our products.

00:02:37.857 --> 00:02:43.157
Every year we always manage to improve something,

00:02:43.163 --> 00:02:47.463
some years something small, other years something bigger,

00:02:47.468 --> 00:02:49.468
covid certainly didn't help us much,

00:02:49.473 --> 00:02:53.173
but now we are slowly recovering.

00:02:53.174 --> 00:02:55.874
Where do we see ourselves in 10 years?

00:02:55.874 --> 00:02:59.874
Maybe with more rooms to accommodate even more people

00:02:59.879 --> 00:03:04.679
and make this wonderful land known to more foreigners

00:03:04.684 --> 00:03:06.684
and why not, maybe even to the Sicilians themselves

00:03:06.685 --> 00:03:11.135
who don't know these areas well.

00:05:59.359 --> 00:06:32.359
No 

00:06:32.392 --> 00:06:33.392
she's naughty,

00:06:33.393 --> 00:06:33.393
but not that one

00:06:40.400 --> 00:06:44.400
second

00:07:20.440 --> 00:07:23.440
But Gina where?

00:07:25.445 --> 00:07:30.445
Whoever holds a Yes in the very old and moon cannot help but be with her.

00:07:30.450 --> 00:07:32.450
How old is he?

00:07:34.454 --> 00:07:36.454
Moon will have more than 10.
