Most recently, Four Seasons Resort The Nam Hai, Hoi An, Vietnam curated a custom itinerary for Missy as the inaugural Envoy, featuring a private eight-octave crystal singing bowl lesson led by Resident Singing Bowl Artist Oanh Ngo; a Goodnight Kiss to the Earth ceremony with floating traditional wishing candles; a sunrise expedition through My Son Temple Sanctuary, a UNESCO World Heritage site; and a fishing excursion to learn traditional techniques in a customary Vietnamese fishing boat.
Missy Dunaway's Envoy by Four Seasons expererience is unveiled here, illuminating the immersive power of storytelling across mediums and art forms.
“Influencer marketing has become a very crowded space, so it is incredibly refreshing to be part of the unique approach Four Seasons is taking in this arena,”says Dunaway. “My Envoy journey went beyond simply experiencing the best of what a destination has to offer with Four Seasons. I was completely immersed in Vietnam's rich history and celebrated traditions, which inspired me to create works that can hopefully inspire others to experience the same for themselves.”
Dunaway's masterful mini canvasses and insightful poetry live on courtesy of a digital gallery, standing in quiet contrast to the saturated online space of look-a-like vacation photos. Those looking to experience The Nam Hai first-hand can browse property experiences here.
Other curious storytellers with a passion for travel and bringing destinations to life in imaginative and artful ways are invited to apply using the Envoy application form. Applications are being considered on an ongoing basis.
