“The island is a sanctuary for the dreamers, the seekers and the wanderers of the world.” The author of these words is lost in time’s mists, but their truth remains. Islands are indeed sanctuaries—apart, often isolated, somehow unique in their power to renew and inspire. For visitors, by necessity, they must be as self-contained as cruise ships or a Vegas casino resort, offering as much as possible within the confines of their shores. Yet they are not all alike, of course. What do Manhattan Island, say, and Indonesia’s Bali share? Beyond both being quite busy, not much. https://bit.ly/3VZ3LZP #ocean #water #islands #barbados #Oahu #littleSimonsland #PuertoRico #DominicanRepublic #meetingprofs #meetingprofessonal #meetings #meetsmart #islandlife #islandadventure

It might seem strange to link the Fourth of July to corporate and business meetings and events. But at the end of the day, both are about gathering—simply in different ways.
