Amanda Rantuccio family visited the two villages of Messina, Rometta and Saponara from where they started more than 100 years ago her great-grandparents.
They met relatives who had never seen before because their ancestors had left Sicily about 100 years ago without ever having returned.
The Roots' n Tours format is not theory but something concrete.
We thank the administrations of Rometta and Saponara for their active collaboration, and in particular the two mayors, respectively Nicola Merlino and Vinci, and the two assessors Nino Cirino (Rometta) and Caterina Capilli (Saponara) who together with us oversaw the organization of the event
We also thank the artisans and the Pro Loco Rometta and the Gruppo Folk "Il Melograno" of Saponara for their participation.
