Aside from their role in pollinating and cleaning our air, bees are critical to the sustainability of our planet’s ecological balance. Despite this, cities continue to evict them. On the other hand, at this charmingly named “Air Bee & Bee” in southern Italy, there will only be a couple of humans but a community of one million bees.
A beekeeper has opened a small home near the picturesque village of Grottole on his olive farm and listed it on Airbnb in anticipation of World Bee Day on May 20. The concept was brought to life by Mariella Gentile, a designer named Davide Tagliabue, and a cultural and social enterprise called Wonder Grottole.
