A Welcome from Dave
I am honored to welcome you to our third Somma voyage.
I host Somma each year alongside the annual Dave Koz and Friends at Sea cruise, and this journey reflects a different rhythm and intention. Somma is designed as a once a year experience, shaped with care, space, and time to enjoy the places we visit and the people we meet along the way.
This week is a chance to step away from the pace of everyday life and settle into a journey that feels considered and unhurried. We travel through smaller ports along the Adriatic and experience them in a way that feels warm, personal, and easy to take in.
What I appreciate most about Somma is the community that forms on board. People arrive as strangers and often leave with new friendships and shared moments that feel genuine. The rhythm is relaxed, and the atmosphere feels welcoming from the start, especially in the evenings we spend together.
I hope you join us for a week that feels meaningful, well paced, and deeply enjoyable.
Warmly,
Dave
