Born in Rome in a Calabrian family, she’s in love with the sea, a bit less with finding herself not bikini ready.

Dorotea detests staying quiet at home, so she’s always searching for new horizons to admire, new hands to shake, places to explore, limits to overcome (such as giving up your wardrobe and hair straightener for ten days of navigation). Give her the scent of the sea, a tasty mojito and she’ll be yours forever. Or at least ‘till the end of the travel.
