    I am absolutely content with my backpack-making experience, both with the flow of the workshop itself and the new knowledge obtained as well as with the final product - my elegant and minimalistic backpack. Francesco is a truly skillful and friendly teacher and I would honestly recommend his workshop to anyone interested in getting to know a bit more about the beautiful art of leather-craft and in taking pride of leaving with a truly unique piece.
