Welcome to Casa Umbra
How it all started
I was born and raised in Assisi, Umbria, surrounded by olive groves, vineyards and stone villages. A few years ago, I moved abroad for work — and that distance made me realize just how much my region meant to me. At first, I tried importing traditional Umbrian products. But I soon understood that I didn’t want Casa Umbra to be “just” a shop. Umbria deserves more than that.
Why Umbria?
Umbria is often called the “Green Heart of Italy”, and it truly lives up to that name. Tucked between Tuscany and Rome, it's often overlooked, but those who do visit quickly understand just how much it has to offer. Here, you’ll find authentic flavors, waterfalls, green hills, lake shores, medieval villages, and miles of scenic trails perfect for hiking, biking, and even rafting.
What Casa Umbra is about
Casa Umbra is a space to discover the real Umbria, piece by piece. Here, you’ll explore local recipes and ingredients, traditional festivals and customs, travel tips and hidden spots, stories of everyday life in Umbria, and more! Whether you're planning a trip or just curious about this corner of Hidden Italy, you’re in the right place.
Looking Ahead
Casa Umbra is still growing. Maybe one day it will become more — a place to stay, to taste, or to explore with local guides.
For now, it’s a digital home for those who love authentic Italian slow living, and for those who believe that small hidden places often have the biggest stories to tell.
