Vanuatu

Map

September 3–4, 2013

Australians and New Zealanders come here on vacation.


The locals live just like the residents of an average African country.


Yet they’re kind and easy-going.


Every license plate has a decorative frame with the name or slogan of a company. The letter in front of the license number indicates the type of vehicle: bus, taxi, rental car, and so on.


A bus stop.


Public transportation is provided primarily by minibuses. The fares are very cheap.


An unusual local sign: turns prohibited. It resembles an aleph.


A small grocery store.


Children.


Children in the flesh.


A car wash.


There are beautiful flowers blooming everywhere.


No kava or alcohol drinking in the park.


A communications hatch cover design that honestly reflects the truth: all the wires are tangled up inside.


All the hatches are marked with yellow and red striped posts.


A street sign.


ATMs are tucked away inside round half-booths.


Supermarkets usually keep water on the shelves and not in the fridge.


A city trash can.


Haphazard waste disposal.


There are mini irrigation ditches along the roads, covered with warped grates.


Payphones.


The post boxes are turquoise-colored.


Electrical boxes.


A fire hydrant.


A market.


The locals love to collect many years’ worth of inspection stickers on their windshields.


Vanuatu is a delightful country with a pleasant climate, kind people, beautiful scenery, and an easy-to-understand language, Bislama, which is essentially a simplified version of English.
