Michael was born and raised in Holland. After meeting Cristina, he became captivated with Italy and its many facets: culture, lifestyle, landscape, food and wine, climate, and personality. Moving to Italy became the next logical step, and both Cristina and Michael were thrilled at the prospect. While in the Netherlands Michael was a network engineer for a large ICT company, in Italy, Michael concentrated on learning the language and getting familiar with the A to Z’s of running an olive grove and producing extra-virgin olive oil. He completed all of the academic and theoretical classwork and successfully took all required exams necessary to earn the designation of "qualified farmer". Today, Michael personally oversees the agriturismo and their land and carries out all the activities, from tree pruning to olive harvesting and pressing, necessary to run a good farm.
