Ludovica Natalini
I was born and raised in Rome and with my family, I have visited all the regions of Italy and traveled to the best and most renowned places. We love food and wine and I have explored many wineries and eaten typical and local products.Growing up, my love for traveling brought me to Ireland, where I spent two amazing years studying, working, and traveling. When I returned to Rome I decided to work in the luxury travel industry, and I spent the last years working for 5-star hotels. I traveled all over Europe, learning about different cultures and lifestyles.I am an avid hiker and climber, and I love beautiful landscapes, cities, history, and museums—each one is unique. My current job allows me to work from anywhere I want, and I love it!
