On April 22, 2023, I took my first flight with Virgin Australia from Sydney to Vanuatu, arriving at the beautiful capital of Port Vila. I was immediately struck by the breathtaking natural beauty of the island, which boasts pristine beaches, crystal-clear waters, and lush tropical forests. The locals were incredibly friendly and hospitable, making me feel at home right away. During my trip, I had the opportunity to visit several popular tourist attractions, but couldn't reach the active volcano on Tanna Island. Unexpectedly, I also met Nepali people who worked in managerial roles at some of the top hotels and resorts on the island. Overall, my trip to Vanuatu was a memorable experience, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and beautiful travel destination.
