Hemma, Hamish and Haiish

  
 

After work we went for a walk to the village and it is good to reminded that most of the Nivanuatu live in simple leaf huts, no electricity and no running water except in the stream at the edge of the village.



 Haiish was full of energy and never stopped asking questions and chattered away.

Later we went down to the sea and helped them develop their skills. Haiish just loved putting her head under water. Hamish was on the verge of swimming but lacked the courage. After a bit of encouragement he was able to go for a swim down the shore with Laura. He was so proud!

Haiish got cold and I love this series of photos. After warming she busied herself collected stones!

The second night there we played games as families do and taught each other tricks.

Next day was beautiful and we went down to the beach to enjoy the brightness before it became too hot.

Then it was time to leave.

Thank you Laura and Haiish for being such good photogenic subjects. Of course some of these photos were taken by Laura.
