Hi friends,
Just a note to let you know we are in Vanuatu and we are safe.
The devastation, loss of life, casualties, and damaged infrastructure is simply horrific. This beautiful country and its people need as much help and love you can give right now.
Port Vila is destroyed. They have no water or electricity, and the hospital is overwhelmed. The airport and seaport also unable to function. Aftershocks also very regular and scary.
We are only getting minimal info at the moment, but we know we won't be able to fly back until Sunday at the earliest.
So our business is closed for now.
