- Have you ever wondered what it's really like living on a tropical island? Forever paradise? Well...
My family have been in Vanuatu for the last three and a half years and have many beautiful and quirky memories to share. I talk about what a typical day for us looks like, and other aspects to living here such as shops, school and recreation.

Hi Kathleen , just wanted to say excellent video. You covered all the things I was interested in. One question though. Whats internet access like there? Do you get good consistent connection and speed similar to Australia?
Thanks Peter for your comment!
In Vanuatu, you can have Internet from telephone towers (can be slow but somewhat reliable) or satellite (faster, however our dish got damaged after the cyclones).
Mobile data is more expensive compared to Aus, and you can go with Digicel or Vodaphone.
Hope this helps!
I'm adding up.. Star Link coming to Vanuatu soon!
Very enjoyable but what a difference from when I and my family lived in Port Vila in the 1970s when the group was known as the New Hebrides. I found it difficult to identify some of the locations but I recognized the name Au Bon Marche. The store is much bigger than when we were there. Iririki Island used to be where the British Resident Commissioner lived. He travelled to and from his office in the town every day by small motor launch. My office looked right out over the bay, it was a beautiful place to work. In spite of the changes, I envy you.
Thank you for commenting! It's amazing to hear what Port Vila was like before Independence. I'm sure there were both good and bad changes, but either way, it is a beautiful country.
That's a longtime ago. A lot have changed these days...

What's your job living there
I used to live in Vanuatu as a kid, only 3 years tho - preschool and kindie basically. I've always considered it my first home, i feel really nostalgic about that place all the way from Australia.
I really enjoy your videos. We visited Vanuatu last year and loved how easy it was to get around, very clean everywhere we went. I got heaps of material to make videos as well 😍
Thank you, that's great to hear! I'm glad you enjoyed your visit 😁
This is INCREDIBLE! Thank you for sharing. My father was born in Vanuatu and my family have always had a connection to this beautiful country. My wife and I will be travelling out to Port Vila in the next month and a bit, my wife has never been before! Watching this got me so excited to be back out there!
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it and have a wonderful stay 😊
Hello, how u prepared for health care? Did u took some medications ? Or preparations for malaria? Cause I will go there in a few months
Thankyou, this was great. We first went there 21 years ago, and have a new interest in moving there. This was helpful.
Thank Q for sharing Vanuatu to everyone 😊 blessings to you and your family
Visiting soon.
Excellent video!...Thank you 😊
I love the tax part a lot. I think it makes Vanuatu super attractive. I'm based in Denmark.
I lived there for 5 years, one in Santo and the rest in Port Vila. It was a funny place, quite different then (forty years ago) but quite quite wonderful.
I am looking forward to Visit Vanuatu soon in fact on May 22 this year. I will check in the Hotel in Port villa and start my Tour from that point on 😊
That's great to hear! Enjoy your stay
How was it ??
I think this is a Well informed Video about Vanuatu .As a Local☝️😌☺️ Gen z (er🤭) ,living in port vila . i appropriate taking in information from all sides of the Spectrum. Pros &Cons

This is a sweet Video. Thank you for having the Heart to Share ,(Our) Home ☺️✨️✨️✨️ Papa God Blessem you and Family 💐💐💐
Good to see you lived in Pango, I probably saw you at South Pacific Memories a few times! Greetings from Pango!

Hi Kathy nice video
Thanks!
Amazing beach and video, thank you for sharing with us :)
I'm glad you enjoyed it, thank you for watching!
Mis my home almost 3years . watching from jeliltarie NSW 😢
We just came back from Vanuatu. Absolutely loved it. Great people and scenery is amazing Haha, yes, correct about the pot-holes 😆😆
Can you record rainny day clips walking around neighborhood please😅🏖🏝
Hahaha 😂 maybe...
Thank you! very informative however I would never live with those house animals
Haha, thank you! We don't get many rats or cockroaches running around if the place is kept clean, but I guess they do exist and not everyone's favourite pet 😅
Dave and Julie Wood built that new ICC church, they were my pastors here in Canada
small world 😎🤙
Yes, they were our pastors here, too!
what is the weather like in September is it hot or cold wondering if it is still swimming weather then or not
Hi Amanda! The weather in September is great, and still in the dry season (so there are no cyclones), but it's safe to say you can swim all year :)
Great thanks so much for your reply
I've wanted to come and retire in Vanuatu however real estate prices are as high as Australia! I thiught it woukd be easier to get cheap accommodation.
Can you go iver the cost of if living and is it better to visit Vanuatu first to see what the real estate prices are like from within the country?
Hi @Gaiaempower ! Yeah, the prices for accommodation can seem pricey depending on where you're looking. However, compared to Australian equivalents on the beach, it may actually suprise you. I'll be happy to do a comparison and in-depth video on real estate and actual cost of living in Vanuatu!
@@KRyanProductions Thanks for the reply. Yes a breakdown of costs would be fantastic!
Yes in Australia prices have gone crazy!
@@Gaiaempower- Globally prices have pretty much gone crazy. It’s becoming a battle of too many people fighting for very limited resources now. Want a taste of the future… Ever see the movie Mad Max? 😮
Is it easy to get a house or room there? I think it would be really expensive😱
Hello i have few questions) is Vanuatu safe? Can you walk in the night? from 1 to 10 how friendly people?
Hi there! I would say Vanuatu is quite a safe country. However, I would take the same precautions in any country, really. Personally, as a girl, I wouldn't roam around alone at night, and not everywhere is lit up with streetlights. As for how friendly people are, it varies, but in general, I would give it a 9-10 :) Hope this helps!
@@KRyanProductions thank you)
Thank you for the video. Really appreciate it. If by chance you are attacked by a venomous animal is there a chance to cure it in time?
Hi @plangiQQ ! Thank you for your comment. Treatment depends on the venomous creature, and I'm not sure about the availability of antivenoms. In general, sea krait/snake bites are lethal (all land snakes are not venomous) but they are easy to avoid, and stonefish and centepedes sting pain can be leviated with hot water. I hope this helps!
@@KRyanProductions Thanks. I added you on instagram to ask a few more questions but i can't send you messages
I'm wondering if citizen by investment here is worth it since it does seem a bit more rural than I'm used to in Honolulu hmm..maybe if I could find a mooring or live aboard slip on a boat?
Hi @Hojson, I think the best thing would be to come see Vanuatu for yourself to tell whether the investment is worthwhile, and you can live on a boat here. Hope this helps :)
When I was there (decades ago) there was a standing joke. “How do you make a small fortune in Vanuatu?” Answer “Start with a big one”.
Hello, how did u dealt with health care? Did u took any vaccinations? Or malaria preparations? I’m just a bit worried. Thank u
Hi! Thanks for your question 😊. We aren't too concerned with malaria. It exists more in the outer islands, but I'm sure you could get vaccines. There is also dengue fever, which is more common, but my family has never had it, and there are traditional treatments. If anything serious happens, there is medivac to New Cal or Aus. Hope this is encouraging!
Yeap. That's Vanuatu alright...
Hi Kathleen, how r u
This Abdur Rahman chowdhury
From Bangladesh
R u from where??
R u still in Vanuatu
Reply me please
Take care and God bless u always

Hi there! Check my pinned comment on internet connection :)
thank you
malapit sa nz yan?
Are Asians living there born there or moving there with families for other reasons?
Yes, there are Asians who are born here, and also immigrate to become permanent residents. There are many different nationalities who move to live in Vanuatu as well.
I have eveything crossed that i make it here ,
I'm a u.k national but sick of this style of living doesn't suit me before the divorce i had an alotment , a greenhouse & hens independant an self reliant , hello i'm from the gov an im here help you is the worst thing i could hear .
Vanuatu looks beautiful , i'll take Earthquakes , cyclones , the risk of tsunamis & a chance of my ears ringing from a massive erruption near by , when living in on dangers land you're more greatful for the little things in life
I heard a rumor that vanuatu natives will often just say yes to any question? Im assuming its pretty inaccurate but is there some truth to it? Just curious
Hi @AntiBlastic , good question, and there is some truth to that rumour. The local Ni-Vanuatu people are all different, and there are many who are very educated and can have proper conversations. However, out of politeness, some Ni-Vans who work for expatriates often just say yes to avoid conflict. I hope this answers your question!
@@KRyanProductions thank you! Have a good day

Vanuatu is one of the poorest nation on earth. You would never know from the attitude of the people though. Absolutely wonderful place to visit if you're not a bit soft...
Yep poor from money but rich from the heart smile culture and beautiful islnd and you will never see homeless in the street 🙂
There are plenty of resorts if you're soft! Of course, soft costs a bit more.
I would've imagined the geckos would eat the roaches
So annoying - like in Australia, I wish the spiders would eat the cockroaches! I am always nice to the huntsmen hoping they'll eat some of the other critters. I'm not so convinced.

Alhamdulillah,freedom from devil materialistic economic system 😍
Hi.
Plź u well com Dhaka.Bangladesh. Saju bhijan.
Where is vanuatu located??
It's in the south pacific close to Fiji, Solomon islands.. it's 3hrs flights from Sydney and Brisbane
cute girl
Ridiculous title to this video and naive perspective.
Calling the capital Port Vila and Efate island "Vanuatu" is like a calling a video on Canberra being called Australia. If you are going to do a video called Vanuatu you could at least show Santo, Tanna, Malekula, Epi, Ambrym and other islands.
So, for the same reason people living in Canberra are not living in Australia. People living in Australia are not living in Oceania. People living in Oceania are not living on Planet Earth 🤔 omg what are we? 😳😭
