Sojourn in the South Pacific

This blog on New Caledonia is for those of you who ever wondered what life on a tiny island in the South Pacific might be like. Tired of bracing winter winds, the stress of an inner city or simply dreaming of a life change? This is a blog about what happens when, in the words of Yogi Berra, "you come to a fork in the road, [and] take it".

Ile des Pins: Heaven on Earth

We've just returned from Ile des Pins. In a word, it is paradise. I have never in my life seen a place so stunning, so breathtaking. I've seen white sands, yes. Blue skies, yes. But the particular combination of these, along with the simplicity of a life sans technology, people and credit cards made me reflect on how little one really needs to be happy and prosper.
