Ancient Greek temples stand sentry on a seaside cliff, bustling villages thrive in the shadows of Roman battlements. World-class beaches lay hidden away beside forgotten lagoons, crowded markets teem with fresh and exotic foods, and baroque cathedrals tower skyward inspiring both historians and romantics. This is the Mediterranean, brought to your living room.
Over a dozen languages are spoken in nearly 20 different nations, with an amazing variety of religious and cultural history. The Mediterranean region is a place of great beauty and epic history that is still mostly unknown to the average American. But as the world has become smaller, more and more Americans are becoming interested in discovering this area. With the success of books such as “Under the Tuscan Sun” and “The Da Vinci Code” the mystique of Mediterranean Europe has become strong in the American imagination. And with the baby boomer generation on the verge of retirement, a new group of travelers are set to go.
The show is called “Must See Mediterranean”, and it focuses on the kind of destinations that look so exciting and appealing . Shauna Sever hosts the show about exotic locations and some of the fabulous places to stay in the Mediterranean. Each episode spotlights a different region or nation, with vignettes about towns, museums, attractions and some of the most amazing accommodations. It’s a vision of the complete vacation package, that puts the viewer on a 30 min vacation to a must see Mediterranean destination!
“Must See Mediterranean” transports the viewer beyond the means of regular broadcast television. The bright blue of Mediterranean waters; the stone works of ancient castles and cathedrals, and the afternoon sunlight in a tiny piazza café are seen in the rich clarity.
“Must See Mediterranean” is produced by Yonder Moon Productions, Inc. out of Los Angeles.
