“For Tahitians there is nothing more desirable than love, being loved and making love. They are in love with the idea of love even more than they are with a real person. Love is free, passion unrestrained and wild, and all love stories, no matter how long they last, one day, a year or forever, are equally beautiful.”
Carol Vorvain“Stay put and you will remain as such. Jump in and you might get wet. Dive and you might find true happiness.”
Carol Vorvain, When Dreams are Calling“Tahitians don’t chase happiness. Happiness comes naturally to them. You only need to see them in the water, with a beer in their hand, splashing each other or waving to every stranger they see on the road, to know this. Happiness is in the air: in every hibiscus flower that opens early in the morning, in the sweet aroma of the pineapple plantations, in the smile of the people lolling around idly, resting slothfully in the warm breeze that ruffles the surface of the lagoon.”
Carol Vorvain, Why Not? The island where happiness starts with a question“The narrow coastal road has many twists and turns, each one revealing scenery of incredible beauty. On one side, the mountains rise proud and steep challenging the sky, on the other, the tropical lagoon sparkles like a zillion twinkling stars. I dream of being carried away on the round, soft shoulders of gorgeous mermaids into the deep blue ocean waters.”

Carol Vorvain, Why Not?: The island where happiness starts with a question“Love is like a pair of polarized sunglasses, making every color seem more vivid, richer, warmer. Without it we stare at the world dull-eyed and flinch at the thought it might remain the same forever.”

Carol Vorvain, A Fool in Istanbul: Adventures of a self denying workaholic“In his humble opinion, she possessed the least appealing traits a woman can put on display: undiscriminating curiosity and nonsensical verbosity.”
Carol Vorvain, A fool in Istanbul - Adventures of a self denying workaholic“Do you know what we Turks think is the best Turkish delight? The Turkish woman. She is the best Turkish delight.”
Carol Vorvain, A Fool in Istanbul: Adventures of a self denying workaholic“They say distance makes old friendships fade away. They say with time and distance lovers forget one another. I find it quite the opposite. Distance, time, they all enhance the aroma of every moment two close souls once spent together, they magnify every little shared pleasure.”
