See about our monastery

Niki Sauro



Born in 1960 in Italy. She did a lot of things in her life: like being a jewellery design in Milano, Italy, or an unofficial paleographer at the university. After she completed her duties with her family (all of them have passed by), she joined us at SunCave monastery. She says we are amazing people, and she is trying to help us with the website and other things. Even if she says that she is a computer dyslexic.


That's all about her

Please, help us to reach as many people as possible: share our website address!
