This week's Eye on Travel Podcast with Peter Greenberg - from Tahiti in French Polynesia. Remember the movie Mutiny on the Bounty starring Marlon Brando? It was shot in Tahiti, and Brando fell in love with the islands so much so that he bought one -  Tetiaroa - the former home of Tahitian royalty. The island's history is remarkable, and today it holds the five star resort , appropriately named, The Brando. Peter sits down with Richard Bailey - Chairman of  Pacific Beachcomber - who runs The Brando for an extended conversation on what makes The Brando unlike any other resort in the world thanks to its environmental innovations. Then, American novelist Paul Theroux stops by to discuss his time in French Polynesia and the Tahitian definition of happy.
