Says Lucija, "In the summer of 2001, my husband and I spent a quiet week on the Croatian island of Hvar---known for its fields of lavender, homemade wine and warm turquoise blue water---and fell in love with the tiny bayside town of Milna. Each whiff and wash brings me back to those precious lazy days on Hvar....."

The entire Dalmatian Coastline as well as its islands, is one, continuous feeling of SPA, and these beautiful products will bring you a little bit closer to that sky-blue sea and rocky shoreline that is known as the Adriatic.

I burned when I saw the Croatian coast. The pilot light in my belly blew up, exploded all over my insides. I was swollen stupid with awe. The cliffs swept down from the stratosphere and crashed into the Adriatic. The perfect blue sky met the perfect blue water---two different yet perfect colors of blue...connected by some ethereal white haze that gradually faded naturally into both. There were white houses with orange roofs that sprouted magically out of the too-green mountainside. It was more than a painting or a photograph, it was a feeling that starts in your middle and erupts from there, like an earthquake in your bones...*

*from the book, CAN YOU HEAR ME SCREAMING? by Croatian author, Eric Obenauf.
