You guys! It’s been over a year since I visited Vanuatu and I honestly still can’t stop thinking about it. I’m convinced that Vanuatu is actual paradise. This less-traveled island nation in the South Pacific has so much to offer and yet so many people have never even heard of it! If you are currently nodding your head like “yeah, what the heck is Vanuatu?” Well, let me show you all the ways that Vanuatu is actual paradise.

P.S. All the photos in this post were taken by me during our two week trip to Vanuatu.
