Tristan da Cunha

Tristan da Cunha, in the South Atlantic, has a population of fewer than 300 people and its neighbours are more than 1,000 miles away. It can only be reached by boat on a 7 day voyage. The island has around 1,000 acres of poor grazing land for 300 cattle and 500 sheep, and its biggest crop is potatoes.

Oh look, it’s the reason I didn’t have a social life in the past few months.
*cough* I mean this is the first animated short film Sarah, Maya and I worked on, I’d love to hear what you think! :D
Quite proud how it turned out, if I am being honest.

My toes hurt, my goosebumps have goosebumps, and my heart is full. I am happy, oh so happy.

I went on an adventure.

We start the day in the car with a map pulled up on my phone. We are determined to find this spot; the spot were the rocks divide the ocean. We park only to realize we are a mile away from where we want to be. We laugh from someplace too deep to locate, our laughter pouring out effortlessly, full of unfiltered joy. We decide to walk because we enjoy the weather and each others’ company and because we have no where else to be. We find our little sanctuary and begin to climb. We need the perfect spot for the perfect picture. He slips. I laugh. “Don’t die!” I yell over the wind. He is beautiful. The ocean is beautiful. The sky is beautiful. Even the wind, that freezes my toes and burns my skin, is beautiful. We take photos for a while.. and then we stop. “The sunset” I say. He agrees. We stand on the shore watching the sky change color, indecisive. He turns and tells me not to move; he pulls out the camera. He takes these.
