About this episode
Dreaming of a well-designed, sun-drenched haven all to yourself, surrounded by the sea? On this special episode brought to you by Janus et Cie, Dan speaks with four incredible guests who know a thing or two about living well under the sun: an American interior designer who made the big full-time move to Greece after the pandemic; a rising star in the world of spirits who knows where the smart crowd lives it up in the Caribbean; and a designing duo who found bliss and fantastic architecture on the Spanish island of Mallorca.
