One week away from a postponed 2020 South Pacific expedition, I immersed in a best-of compilation from four 2018 South Pacific voyages. For all participants a truly life-changing experience. A place I instantly knew a return trip was very much desired. Pristine waters with marine encounters that reset the soul. A warm culture of brave oceanic explorers embodying the very best traits of human resilience, indicative of remote Pacific island-living.
