Tonia Parronchi

A Whisper on the Mediterranean Tonia Parronchi

A Whisper on the Mediterranean Travel around the magical Mediterranean with Tonia, Guido and their 14 month old baby, James. You will soon discover that this way of life is not as idyllic as Guido had promised, when he persuaded his wife to embark on this adventure. The myth of a gentle, forgiving Mediterranean Sea was destroyed by violent storms and the family suffered such varied experiences as high seas, stuck anchors, marauding mosquitoes and severe sunburn. However they also fell in love with this way of life, visiting secluded bays and places of sublime beauty, unreachable unless by boat and completely untarnished by tourism. This book is filled with humour and reality. It also contains some deliciously simple Italian recipes - If they can be made in a cramped galley while the waves rock the boat none-too-gently, imagine how easy they will be to cook in an unmoving, modern kitchen. Come aboard for a fun, feast of the senses - and who knows, perhaps it will inspire you to step on deck for your own watery adventures!
