Company information

I 'm a curious guy who can't stop to marvel about things. I wish to meet the greatest number of people from all over the world and grow as an individual by doing such.

Property information

For Residents and travelers alike Casa Verdi offers a lifestyle that embraces participation and sharing of fundamental values as this allows a higher and more genuine value to be spontaneously created for all. This perspective aims to hybrid gift economy & traditional economy. We feel that the latter is merely an excuse to allow the former to trigger the unlimited value potential that results from meaningful human relations & interactions.

Neighbourhood information

Few minutes walking and you can be in one of the many attractive places of the city, such as Stesicoro’s square (Piazza Stesicoro), Via Etnea, Via Umberto, Via Crociferi (where most of the Baroque architecture can be found), Teatro Massimo Bellini (the old theatre of Catania), The Cathedral, University square, the Duomo square etc., and only 1 km (around 15 minutes walk) from the central station. The apartment is located in the old town, the most important touristic location. Historical markets, archaeological sites and museum are all within walking distance. The Fiera is an ancient market in the middle of the city centre, very peculiar! You can be there in strict contact with the real folks "catanesi"! They should try to sell you everything, let you taste something, speak loudly and you must bargain with them to get the best price. Everything nearby the Fiera is cheap and convenient by definition, people talk with you often (even if in Italian) with the sole intention of interaction, that’s why we choose to live here!
