      Did you just spend the day on the island and then go back to the ship for your sleeping 🛌 accommodation? I also wondered what the arrangements would be for travelers who couldn’t make it back to the ship because weather prevented it for the day. As always, you did an incredible job with your video. They just keep getting better.😊 🚢 🌊

    My father’s biggest dream is to go to Tristan da Cunha. He has been working for over 40 years and plans to retire next year. He wants to go there once he retires. I’ve already started to saving money. I hope I can surprise him and take him to this beautiful island. If we can fulfill this dream, I will also share our journey on TH-cam. 😊

      Well, it's all about costs. Imagine what it would cost to build one there. Then there is maintenance, spare parts.. And then it would probably generate too much electricity most of the time, then not enough some of the time so they would need back up generators anyway. I'm sure they did the math and found out it didn't work. Solar panels would make more sense imho.

      Josh needs to come back to Australia, he is losing his Aussie accent. But, his meet-up with Rowan must've got his Aussie phrases back. But, living in Australia might cook his budget, as we know how expensive it is to fly anywhere. For what we pay SYD-LAX economy return, Josh would spend 1/4 of that on a business class flight from Frankfurt to Istanbul or Singapore to Abu Dhabi. One-way Qantas MEL/SYD/BRIS to Singapore would cost him money he could spend on that lobster he mentioned in this video. Actually, SYD-PERTH one-way costs more than SYD-Auckland return with flights & 3 nights accommodation.

    The islanders were evacuated to a small village (barely a village really) called Calshot. I grew up down the road from there. There's a cul-de-sac named Tristan Close in honour of the islanders who lived there. Knowing the area as I do, I can assure you they didn't live a "busy life" in Calshot. It's the last stop on a road to nowhere with very few people and very little traffic, so it was an ideal place to put them. It's also a tiny village of just a couple of cul-de-sacs. One on side is farmland and forest; on the other is the sea. The people just wanted to go home, though a couple did stay behind and marry locals.
    Interestingly, nearby Southampton is also home to the largest Falkland Islander population outside the Falklands. It has plenty of links to the BOTs.

    Also visit the Chatham Islands of New Zealand located east of the south island of NZ in the south pacific. An airline called Air Chathams flies from Auckland to the Chathams Islands direct. I recommend you making a trip report/vlog about Air Chathams, their cabin, and the friendly cabin crew. I'm telling you it's going to be a memorable and an unusual flight experience that you will never forget. ❤😊 Greetings from Auckland, New Zealand.

    Regarding the islanders not engaging too much with visitors. I read somewhere that the isolation of the island is such that inhabitants have limited immunities to infections. Plus the islanders have higher than average rates of asthma. So it's sensible for them to avoid visitors.

      I found it a little odd, it looks like nobody really welcomes visitors, you have to walk around awkwardly yourself and even then you really meet shy people from a distance. Only fascinating thing is that the island is so remote but from the video I didn't find anything fascinating about the island itself or cizitzens there 😬

    Josh, I enjoyed this video so much. I could sense your excitement and gratitude for being able to make the trip and get to know the island. I was privileged and thrilled just a few years ago to visit as well, and I found it just as fascinating as you did. I appreciate your helpful background information on the island and its people, and the conversations, as I learned some new things. Safe travels, and I'll look forward to following along as you explore more places.
