Another life change led to several years of living in the Bahamas, on a sailboat, Spindrift, with her husband and young son, Glen. Home-schooling, scuba diving and exploring were interspersed with true medical emergencies—where her training proved crucial to people living in the remote outer islands.
Anna, her husband Pino, and a menagerie of animals moved to the community of nature-loving enthusiasts in Tewksbury, New Jersey, in ‘98. Raising alpacas and competitive endurance trail riding became Anna's passions.
Long hours spent at growing their home-based business resulted in the creation of the Unicorn family of leather care and natural fiber cleaning products. Anna wrote all marketing and advertising materials as well as the patent for the Leather Therapy Treatment process, which brought leather care into the home laundry. Successful appearances on QVC in the USA and Home Shopping TV in Canada followed.
