A few pictures from my first week at work in the South Pacific.
When the sun is shining here, it is absolutely gorgeous, but once the weather changes, it can be very wild, wet and windy.
I feel very privileged to work in some of the places I do. This would have to be by far the most remote location I have ever worked in.
We are 14 hours by sea from the closest hospital, providing there is a boat available.
No aircraft land here, no tourists come here, and there are no quick trips to the shops if you need something.
It really is remote.
Working in a place like this makes you very aware of just how isolated you are, and how important it is to be prepared for whatever might come your way.
It’s also a pretty special place to wake up and go to work each day.
The people, the scenery, the weather and the remoteness all make this experience very different from anywhere I have worked before.
I’m only a week in, but I already know this is going to be one of those jobs I remember for a very long time.
