Vanuatu a sailtrip back in time, #144e english version

Vanuatu_Sailing trip into the past_SV MariaNoa_#144e_english version ▬ ABOUT THIS FILM ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ The island nation of Vanuatu, with a population of 350,000, is surrounded by prosperous countries such as Australia, New Zealand, and New Caledonia, yet its gross domestic product is less than one-tenth that of its neighbors. Unexpectedly, we take a journey through time and immerse ourselves in the village structures that shape the lives of the population outside the capital city of Port Vila. Nestled in lush nature, we find houses in the well-kept village that are built from materials sourced from the surrounding rainforests. Family community is at the center of life: natural resources are shared. Do you have specific questions? We are happy to answer them at MariaNoa@gmx.de. ▬ CHAPTER ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 00:00 Fiji - Vanuatu 02:39 Port Resolution 05:18 Lefakel 08:36 Port Resolution – Port Vila 09:26 Port Vila 09:50 Music Festival 10:39 Church service 12:16 Mele Beach Club 15:19 Tanna Coffee 15:47 Mele Cascades 17:03 Blue Lagoon 17:37 Maskelynes Islands 18:16 Dugong 20:14 Happy Birthday 21:45 Three Villages 26:21 Intro ▬ V I N T A G E ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ For many years, sailing around the world had been my (Hannes) big dream, which I wanted to realize when I reached retirement age due to my job. But sometimes life doesn't go as planned. In the spring of 2020, I was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. Suddenly, my life accelerated considerably. I sold my house, cleared out my belongings, and began to acquire mountains of sailing equipment. We planned to set sail at the beginning of March 2021—and that's what happened, despite COVID-19. Brigitta was completely surprised, of course, even though sailing around the world fit much better into her professional life than mine. But in the following six months, Brigitta has made amazing progress and is just as excited about our big adventure as I am. We have now been traveling for a total of four and a half years. One adventure follows another, and we enjoy every day anew. In search of freedom and independence, a thirst for adventure and a love of nature, we – Brigitta and Hannes – are sailing around the world together. For this circumnavigation, we bought the Lagoon 40 MariaNoa catamaran, with which we set off on the Barfußroute from the French Atlantic coast at the beginning of March 2021. Do you have any specific questions? We'd be happy to answer them at MariaNoa@gmx.de. ▬ Plan International ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ I have been volunteering for Plan International for many years. Alongside UNICEF, Save the Children, World Vision, and SOS Children's Villages, Plan International is one of the world's largest children's charities. On our trip, we don't just want to relax in idyllic bays, we also want to visit our sponsored children in Plan's program countries and volunteer to document the work being done there.
