Polynesie Francaise-the facts.
PF is composed of 121 islands spread out over an area slightly larger than Europe in the South Pacific. It is made up of 5 Archipelagos; Marquesas, Tuamato, Australs, Society and Gambines. The largest settlement is Papeete on Tahiti, which is on the Windward Islands one part of the Society Islands.
The population of the lot is just over 250,000.
Tahiti is 6,000 kilometres roughly from both Australia and West coast America. It is 18,000 kilometres from France.
1,500 kilometres NE of Tahiti lie the Marquesas and that's where we are at this date. It's a 3 hour flight and the local time is plus half an hour from Tahiti. We are staying on the largest of the northerly islands called Nuku Hiva.
French Polynesia has one of the highest costs of living in the world.
Veni Vidi VISA. Ouch!
