| Since
we’ve acquired our yacht in the British Virgin Islands
in 1997, our trusted companion has safely brought us from
the West Indies to Panama and beyond.
From Panama, the porthole to the immense mysterious Pacific
Ocean and on the trail of Bougainville’s, Cook’s,
and Laperouse’s dreams, we set sail!
The discovery of unexpected valleys in the Marquises, hidden
by sheer rocky cliffs, took our breath away with its multitude
of colours so treasured by Gauguin in his paintings. The
fragrance of a meal cooked in a Tahitian oven, the well
built and harmonious torso of the copra bearers emblazed
with traditional tattoos revitalized our senses.
The Cook Islands, Souvaroov’s atoll, paradise of Tom
Neils!
Rose, the desert island, kingdom of sea birds.
The soul of Polynesia, Samoa, where Stevenson’s souvenirs
are still alive.
The Tonga, referred to since it’s discovery as the
“friendly land” with its reefs embellished with
sea shells.
New Zeland, lost in the mist, a fairy land so difficult
to leave behind.
The ceremonial encounter with the fierce Cava in Fiji.
New Caledonia, its music and its particular pines.
Lord
Howe, jewel of the South Sea.
Gigantic Australia, where jelly fishes and crocodiles reign
over the white sandy beaches; a domain where nature still
prevails.
The Komodo dragons, forgotten dinosaurs; the Balinese smile;
the multicolour traditional fishing boats of the Java Sea.
Sophisticated Singapore, the wild Langkawi. The majestic
cliffs of the Thai islands, plunging into the sea…. |
|
|
A
multitude of emotions, sounds, colours, fragrances to savour,
encounters…
the excitement for travel, the pleasure of discovery.
The immense opportunity to live the moment!

Recepies |

| Simple
but effective: the dry tuna meat. Draw the fillets with
the skin, few incise on the meat side, sprinkle with big
grained salt and pepper, and lay on a wooden board in fresh
air. The salt will remove the humidity by melting and evacuating.
Eat while still soft. |

The
Outo Burger: take a germinated coconut more or less of 50
cm high, and open it. Inside, instead of its liquid, you
will find a sort of a sponge, the “outo”, crumble
it. Fried some onions, mix the all lot with some flour,
salt, pepper and fried the lot. (Do not utilize the fatty
tissue glue to the inside of the nut, hard to digest). |
