“Tropical Treasures” – David Duran
This piece highlights how Tahiti and the islands of French Polynesia are a welcoming, luxurious destination for same sex couples and notes same sex marriages became legal in 2013. The writer shares his experiences with Tahiti Yacht Charters and various activities on the islands he traveled.
“French Polynesia was an over-the-top vacation mixed with a bit of adventure, but mostly pampering. And while it’s not a destination one can arrange and execute without serious financial planning, it is a destination that shouldn’t be dismissed just because of it’s cost. Because what you get in return for this trip of a lifetime can be truly transformative,” writes Duran.
