The record of a strange family who left a comfortable life in British Columbia to fly to the other side of the world to volunteer on Tanna, Vanuatu.

Where is Vanuatu? Hey,look it up. It's a place where cannibalism still occurs, electricity flickers and falters much of the time, active volcanoes regularly threaten the life of the islanders and the official language is Bishlama - a pidgin developed through centuries of trading with the western world.

We hope this will be an interesting record of the highs and lows of learning to live in a culture so different from our own.
