Hi!! I\'m Ricky.
I\'m six years old and I live in Mantua.
My house is beautiful and it\'s near the \"Te\" gardens.
When it\'s sunny I go playing there with other children and we enjoy a lot because these gardens are very big and I can ride my bike or play football.

Mummy has thought of doing a bed and breakfast in our house: I don\'t know what it means but daddy explained to me that it\'s like a birds\' nest, always ready for those who come from far away and wish to sleep or have a rest. I\'m very happy because, when the guests arrive, I take them to their rooms.
Daddy painted all the rooms and mummy made the curtains for the windows and the doors. They prepared everything, even the TV in each room and they hung up at the wall some photos of Mantua. Every morning, when the guests get up, mummy prepares biscuits and cakes on the table even if it\'s no one\'s birthday. When they set down at the table, she pours milk and coffee and she serves some bread with butter and jam. Sometimes she prepares tea. If there are some children, mummy offers Nutella to spread: however it\'s false that only children eat Nutella, also adults eat it with some bread!!

MANTUA
Mantua is rich of history, place, squares and buildings which testify the Gonzaga’s domination, Dukes of Mantua from 1300 to 1600.
Today Mantua preserves the charm of the Virgilan Poetry, the medieval architecture, the beautiful renaissance monuments, the majesty of the 18th century art and the trace of the recent Austrian domination. Mantua is a small city full of artistic beauties and with a glorious past.
We also suggest a visit to some natural parks like \"Mincio\", \"Bertone\", \"Bosco Sigurtà\" and \"Bosco Fontana\".
Near Mantua you can visit the \"Grazie Sanctuary\", the \"Polirone Abbey\" in San Benedetto Po, Sabbioneta (called “Small Athen”) or Castel D’Ario, where the famous Ferrari driver Tazio Nuvolari was born.
In our area you can also taste typical wines such as Rosato or Lambrusco. If you want, you can stop in a traditional restaurant or tavern to eat some typical recipes: Risotto alla Pilota, Tortelli with Zucca, Tartufo, Stracotto and the famous Sbrisolona cake.
