Before our blog moves on and starts focusing on other islands in Vanuatu there is a story we would like to share. It takes place on, yep you guessed it, Tanna. View More
Let’s go on a little adventure… let’s say it’s about 4:20pm. Think that the colours red, green, yellow and black are somehow more vivid than ever before.
Nambawan! All of a sudden we are sailing away from Vanuatu and heading north towards the Solomons. Woah crazy! Pull up the anchor and it hits us all at the same time… We’re leaving Vanuatu. How did this moment creep up on us? View More
