    About us

    We are from Gorizia, a small town in North-East Italy.

                                                      

    There are four version of its name: Gorizia (Italian), Nova Gorica (Slovenian), Görz (German) and Guriza (Friulano, a local language). This is due to the fact that it lies on the border with Slovenia, actually it used to be cut in two by the border, it was part of the Austrian Empire for more than 400 years and now is an Italian town deeply linked to its linguistic heritage.
