  • My Croatia writing retreat for one in collaboration with Valamar Lacroma, Dubrovnik @valamarhotels. As an international bestselling author, I do my best work by the sea... The Adriatic Sea. I draw inspiration from all around me... Light, food, energy. It’s often part self-care, part mind-care. When I let my creativity flow to the sound of lapping waves. Taking in incredible sunsets. Only to do it all again come morning. Over and over again. This is my sacred place. This is where I write. #Valamar #HolidayAsYouAre #Writing #AuthorLife #Hosted ______________________________ Music: Smell of Morning Coffee / Franz Gordon License: Epidemic Sound
  • What an absolute treat to be in town for the @lumiartdubrovnik Light Festival in the always stunning Dubrovnik 🇭🇷 It was incredible and the atmosphere energetic, being surrounded by so much art and creativity ☀️ @experiencedubrovnik @grad.dubrovnik.official @croatiafulloflife @dubrovnikriviera #CroatiaFullOfLife #lightfestival #light #art #dubrovnik
  • Postcard: Dubrovnik, Croatia Location: @kopundbk Back from a wonderful culinary tour led by the one and only @croatian_wine_guy as a guest of @experiencedubrovnik while in town working on a new project. While I sort through photos and notes for an upcoming post, I wanted to share this particular capture since I’m usually behind the camera. It’s been awhile since I’ve seen myself laugh this way. Good food, great company, and gratitude that I get to do this. To share stories through words and images. Thank you Bozidar for the photo 🙏🏽 #croatia #foodtour #culinary #gastronomy #wine
