In the hills of the Peloritani, north of Taormina, above the Ionian Sea. Your plot is held there in name and in spirit, an honorific corner of Sicily, on the island of Sicily.

Three titles of the family, from a first seat at the table to the head of it. Don is the oldest: an honorific, a courtesy form of address that sits before a first name. It came into Italy with the Spanish, out of the Latin dominus, and for centuries it has been how the south of the country marks respect, for the head of a family, a teacher, a priest, the person a village defers to. Capo is the Italian for head, as in capofamiglia, the head of the household. Soldato is the soldier, the one the family can always count on. Each is something a family grants rather than a state confers. Choose yours, and wear it with a smile.
Then it costs you nothing. Your title, certificate and plot are refunded 100%, for any reason, for 30 days: write to hello@lafamigliadisicilia.com and it's done, no quibble. A printed or framed piece is refunded in full too if you tell us before we post it; once it's in the post it carries your name and can't be refunded, though if it arrives damaged or wrong we'll reprint it free or refund it. Full details on our Refunds page.
