(en) Martin Taylor, The Trulli of Alberobello, April-May 2005 in Italy and Malta : « On the part of the tour we joined, the guide debunked a popular myth that the stone buildings were good to live in, being warm in winter and cool in summer. She was brought up living in a trulli house, and said they were cold and drafty in winter, and stuffy in summer. The only reasons people still live in them is that they are too poor to move out, or that they entertain tourists as hosts of a trulli B&B. People like to come and look at the trulli — they are indeed a Michelin three-star attraction — but sensible people don't want to live in them ».
