LATEST WORK
A full-length feature on Croatia's charter appeal, written following an island-hopping excursion on board the 53.2-metre superyacht Aeterna.
"It's a far cry from Monaco, or the polished hotels that profilerate the Amalfi Coast – but, as Aeterna's captain says, chic new openings are not what draw guests to Croatia."
"Centuries upon centuries of shifting settlers - the Ottomans, the Romans, the Austro-Hungarian Empire – have shaped Croatia, and its full flush of islands, into a miscellany of dialects, cultures and architectural beauties."
"The clear ocean surface is as still as bathwater, and the only company Aeterna has for the entire trip is the occasional small sailing yacht or speedy catamaran. Lithe and white, they glide past our four decks the way remora fish circle a whale."
