Happy World Book Day!

I'm jumping into Portugal with a stop at the world's oldest bookstore still in operation, Livraria Bertrand.

The bookstore was opened in 1732! It's a maze of shelves under low arched ceilings.

~a final cocktail in Tahiti~

We had a wonderful time getting to know amazing suppliers during our last meal in Tahiti before refreshing at the hotel and catching our flight home.

Ori Tahiti dance is alive and well across the islands! Children learn dances in school, and each year there is a huge dance competition at the Heiva Festival.

I attended the Tahiti Travel Conference. The conference brought together supplies from all over the many islands to share with us what special experiences they can offer our clients.

From guesthouses on the most remote islands to various ship style cruises and everything in between, this experience brought my Tahiti specialization to the next level.

The speakers did an amazing job. I loved the president's discussion of using certain language in Tahitian to reflect visitors as "guests" and the tourism board's information on their sustainability highlights.

Journeying to the end of the island wilds with Tequila the boat dog.

As we sailed, the guide pointed out the "lasts" of everything.
- Last house with a road.
- Last house with electricity.
- Last house on the island.

The houses past the road all had boating docks. The docks with covered ends (they almost looked like a little bar seating area) were for children to sit in when waiting for their school boat bus.

I miss my overwater bungalow morning espresso. My coffee doesn't look nearly as lovely on my office desk.

But then I think of all my clients having experiences like this in Australia, New Zealand, Hawaii, Italy, and Vietnam right at this moment, and it's all worth it!

I love advising my clients about the best balance of guided and leisure time based on their preferences and trip locations.

There are specific sites that I always recommend an advanced ticket or guide because they sell out! Other more niche or hidden gems can wait and be up to how your feeling that day.

I'm here to help you know which is which.

More site inspections - can you imagine relaxing with your family around a table and private pool with this view?

Now to my private bungalow a few doors down to relax and get ready for dinner with a Polynesian show.

~touchdown in paradise~

Just landed in Bora Bora, and the moment we stepped off the plane, we were welcomed with the warmest Tahitian hospitality—a fragrant flower lei.

From the airport, we hopped on a private boat transfer, gliding over the most unreal shades of blue we’ve ever seen. The ocean breeze, the crystal-clear lagoon, and the breathtaking views of Mount Otemanu—pure magic.

Our boat brought us right up the the resort's check-in counter on the water with schools of fish to admire with our welcome drink.

Now off to our dreamy overwater bungalow… Let the island adventure begin!

From the sky, you can see the land formations that make the islands of Tahiti so special.

So many islands, like Bora Bora, are surrounded with a dazzling turquoise lagoon and lush motus - those dreamy little islets with swaying palms and powdery white sand.

The colors of the water shift from crystal-clear aqua to deep sapphire, framed by the coral reef that keeps this paradise so pristine.

SWIPE to see the airport landing stripe right on a small section of the motu!
