We will enjoy the beautiful sea of Torre dell'Orso and Otranto and we will also take part in a popular dance music festival to dance all together the traditional dance of "Pizzica", an unforgettable experience to fully immerse in the culture and traditions of the place and taste all the good cuisine that this corner of South of Italy has to offer!

My name is Mara and I am an Italian actress based in London who also works as a freelance Trip Leader and Organiser. I love travelling and meeting new people around the world, discovering new cultures and traditions and learning new languages. I am looking for trip mates (age ideally between 25-45) easy going, friendly who love to have a great time, who are genuine, respectful and supportive in the group.

We will stay in apartments or bed & breakfast in shared rooms with private bathroom. Private room is available on request at an extra fee (DM to request this option). All accommodations will be close to all amenities, city centre and have all necessary facilities in order to enjoy our staying and easily walk around the city. Let's experience the authentic charm of Southern Italy through beautiful beaches, incredible food, local traditions, and unforgettable moments shared with like-minded travelers. Come with an open mind, embrace la dolce vita, and create memories that will last a lifetime. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out, I'd be happy to help! ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡นโ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿท
