2020: A couple moves from London to the island of Vis
2020: A couple moves from London to the island of Vis
For Anthony and Ivana Stancomb, the decision to move from Fulham to Vis, the remotest island off the coast of Croatia, was easy, but fitting in with the locals was one of the hardest things they had ever had to do.
Faced with a language barrier and sceptical locals, Anthony and Ivana tackle risky boats, fierce grandmothers, star-cross’d lovers and the establishment of Croatia’s first ever cricket team. Little by little our undaunted couple became islanders in their own right, and a few hearts are melted along the way.
The island of Vis
With the Adriatic Sea as its backdrop, Under a Croatian Suntakes the reader on a journey from the grey concrete of London to a ramshackle village in Croatia – a village proudly defined by its tragic history, unique café culture, fishing and potent alcohol.
