OFF GRID On the Most Remote Island on Earth

preview_player
Показать описание
This is the Hakaui Valley on the remote island of Nuku Hiva in the Marquesas, French Polynesia.

With the nearest continental mass over 3000 miles away, this is one of the most remote islands on earth, and the Hakaui valley cannot be reached by road, plane, or anything other than a boat or a 17km hike from the nearest town of Taiohae.

The island itself is a full 3 hour flight from the capitol of Tahiti!

For this adventure, I'm seeing if I can survive for 24 hours in this jungle without electricity (other than minimal solar light), refrigeration, communication with the outside world, and the basic comforts we take for granted. Here they live off the grid, mostly living off the land foraging, growing their own food, and hunting for what they eat. This is true farm to table! This is a unique opportunity to see what it's like to live off the land, to be in harmony with the environment, and to get a peek into Marquesan culture.

WOW so much happened. One of my favorite toys decided to stay there, I met awesome people, learned how to make coconut milk (it's harder than I thought!), and felt so privileged to get to do it all. Would you try this?

Wow, that looks straight out of Jurassic Park! I've actually made my fair share of coconut milk while I was working in Dominica, as well as Coconut Cheese (a sweet dessert) in a similar process. That journey to Vaipo looks amazing, great video! 😊

Enjoyed video. It is a beautiful place and good job with machete. You are brave. I think you handled the cannibalism history with great understanding and care. I think the host was really appreciative being given an opportunity to describe his culture free of judgment and surrounded by love. His joy and pride was palpable. The hosts seemed like kind people who I would love to hang out with.

Hi Kristin. Excellent video. There are levels to travel, and you have reached such an elite level that you can only match on a full time basis. Sorry to hear about your drone. Although you did not show it, I am sure you were quite disappointed as the aeriel pics would have been fantastic. Just one question and i am mirroring your travel and looking to buy a drone, what kind did you get and what was the cost. Thx!

you use the sharp side of knift to knock the coconut. Use the opposite side and hit a bit harder. We done almost the same to prepare coconut milk.

You said that it was super humid all the time and I'm sure it was but one could never tell from the way you look 💁🏻‍♀️, no shiny face at all, and your huge smile🥰.

I discovered you many years ago in time for my solo trip to southeast Asia, and I love your new channel. I wish you all the best in life ✨💃🤗
