Description
Jamie Edwards and her family, 13 in all,  spent two weeks in Croatia (August 2021). It's her third trip to what's quickly turned into a vacation hotspot, especially for A-listers such as Beyonce and Jay Z, Magic Johnson and his wife Cookie, Bono, Neil Patrick Harris, Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart to name a few. So what make's Croatia so special? We're going to answer that in this podcast. Jamie and her family planned a rather unique trip that included both land and sea. They spent the first week at Villa Barbara on the Istrian Peninsula---a heart-shaped piece of land in northwest Croatia near the borders of Slovenia and Italy. The villa features six bedrooms and seven bathrooms. And oh, the amenities; tennis and basketball courts, a golf range, ping pong, foosball, billiards, and bicycles. By the way the pool and hot tub are a pretty good bet for the less active among us. The villa is a short drive to local villages to enjoy the culture and local cuisine. Their second week was spent on a gulet exploring the spectacular islands of Croatia while worshiping both sun and sea. The Gulet Perla is about 100 feet in length and features seven bedrooms all with their own private en-suite bathroom. Jamie's came with a chef who prepared some sumptuous meals morning, noon and night. Swimming, island exploration and spectacular sunsets are just the beginning of life at sea. We'll leave it to you to answer, What is the Best Way to Explore Croatia, Land or Sea? You can learn more about Jamie on her wonderful website Iamlostandfound.com. There you will find Jamie's story about Croatia, The Best Way to Explore Croatia. Land and Sea.
