Riley and Elayna, after 11 years living aboard La Vagabonde, travel to Vanuatu to scout land for a farm and permanent base, having previously ruled out Cape Town and Indonesia.0:22 Over several days they inspect four properties: a large forested block being seized by a bank, cheap but requiring full clearing; a smaller plot with existing structures, too small and not a blank slate; a beachfront parcel with four hectares of farmland built up by a couple named Axel and his wife, producing 90 eggs a day from 110 chickens; and a 300-meter river-frontage eco and adventure park called Eden on the River, beautiful but over budget and too built-out to repurpose.9:13 A friend named Michael also offers a ridge-top block with panoramic views.19:39 Key findings: all land in Vanuatu is traditionally owned by Ni-Vanuatu people, so foreigners lease rather than buy, with leases running up to 75 years with extension options.15:08 The tax structure and absence of the legal barriers they hit in Indonesia make Vanuatu attractive.14:55 Mosquito density near heavy vegetation is flagged as a serious site-planning factor.17:25 They place a $500,000 offer on a property.27:05 Kava farming is discussed as a potential revenue crop, highly sought after in the US but difficult to retain locally.20:31 The practical lesson: leasehold tenure and land-clearing requirements are the two factors that most shape a foreigner's farm-build decision in Vanuatu.
