About the host
Hosted by Kenneth Francis Schunk & Veronica C Wyatt
We are Veronica and Ken, husband and wife and the owners of Villa El Olivar.
Like any relationship ours is as much a story about “the road traveled” as it is about us.
After an initial trip to Italy, we were convinced that we needed to return...which we did..again and again and again. All those things you read about in the travel guides were reasons for us to go back...the people, history, culture, food, wine, the way of life, and each experience moved us a bit further along the continuum from….could we live here?...to…. should we live here?.....to…..We need to live here!
Umbria surprised us...it has wonderful medieval hilltop towns off the tourist trail that make you feel relaxed and unhurried as well as more well-known places like Orvieto, Assisi, Spoleto, Montefalco, Perugia, and Spello which still feel authentic while inviting you to wander, explore and learn their history. The people seem down to earth, hard-working, and appreciative of the lives they have, and being in the green heart of Italy the fresh produce, olive oil, cheeses, and meat we enjoyed each day spoke to leading a healthy lifestyle and the chance to simplify our lives.
Now that we call Italy home, it gives us great pleasure to have you staying at El Olivar and our wish for you is that you will enjoy the experience, feel you are someplace special, and be inspired to return...again and again and again.

Why they chose this property
Umbria is the new Dolce Vita....authentic, filled with wonderful people as well as fantastic food and wines, oozing history, and tourist-friendly but not packed with visitors.
Being in the center of Italy it makes everything accessible. Perugia, Orvieto, Rome, Florence, Venice, Assisi, Spello, Spoleto, Todi, Narni, Viterbo, and Montefalco are all 20 minutes to 2 hours away by car.
