E165 - A True Cultural Experience on Walla Island

We continue from our last episode exploring Walla Island. After being welcomed by the village, we are given a tour collecting some fresh Pomelo fruit, and shown the tribal dance area and drums. The following morning we attend the church service as guests of honour, and join the village in their feast trying Lap Lap for the first time.

We're Chris and Jo and we have been living on our Seawind 1260 since January 2019. In our first year we bring our yacht down the east coast of Australia and sail it out to New Caledonia. After cruising further north up the east coast of Australia in 2020, we decide to circumnavigate Australia during 2021 and 2022, and in 2023 we had back into the pacific and to Vanuatu. We had previously owned fishing and water skiing boats, but after a couple years crewing in South Australia we decided to jump right in and make a sea change. We are just an ordinary Aussie couple exploring what this great world has to offer and hope that we can inspire others just as we were by watching other YouTube channels to follow our dreams. #vanuatu #seawind1260 #seawindcats #sailing #sailingboat #sailingyacht #yacht #yachting #yachtinglifestyle #cruisinglife #wallaisland
