Nature Trek in Vanuatu Paradise





You know Life Is Good when you get to be with friends and can take a Nature Trek in Vanuatu Paradise, all while you are working is the best part.

Welcome to all my friends and readers, we went on an aerial view of Vanuatu last post and this time I want to share the feeling of being enclosed in Natures arms as the universe intended. It all began with a pretty hairy taxi ride from the resort, and when asked by the driver where did we want to go , our smart reply was show us some good spots. Well friends at first I thought we were not going to go all that far as the taxi was an old beat up 4 door corolla with the hood lining hanging down and some door handles missing. Then we also found out they have no road rules or licence's there.

The Locals Village
Still not really knowing where we were headed , the driver turned onto a dirt road and went into a sort of small community where there were many hut type structures with interwoven palm leaves as a roof. Even here with the primitive type housing we were in lovely peaceful surroundings and green foliage every where at the foothills of the island. We spent perhaps 15 minutes here site seeing and taking photo's before moving on, it was a great comparison of Lifestyle .










Natures Memories
The taxi driver soon had us at a place that I will remember for the rest of my life, it was called Cascades Waterfall and just like the sign said , it was more than a tour it was a lifetime experience. This was to be our Nature Trek in Vanuatu Paradise and it was worth every cent we paid the taxi and the gate attendant. We set off on our own wandering through the jungle so to speak along a beautiful stream that eventually led us to the magnificent water falls about 2km in.

All in A Days Work
These series of cascading waterfalls consisting of about 30 in total with crystal clear water ponds at the bottom of each fall , eventually led us up through the jungle and to the main waterfall at the top. The ladies waited and took photographs of the beautiful settings and surrounding wild flowers, while Myself and Scotty my work mate just had to climb the waterfall and swim in the several ponds on the way. You know all those late nights ,lessons,and workshop seminars on internet marketing were all worth it, when you can sit in the middle of a magical waterfall and wave to your wife below , as you are working and swimming in Vanuatu.."must pinch myself."


Dreams Do Come True
Not only have I wanted to share this adventure in Vanuatu and have you consider some fabulous journies like this , I want you all to understand that only two years ago I was a full time plumber . This involved long working manual hours and at times 70 hrs a week. I then decided to start learning the skills needed to do internet marketing and a good friend gave me the gift of a lifetime as it has turned out, a book called "Year Of The Affiliate" got me to a point where I realized that it was possible for an old plumber to replace his income.

I had to work also on personal development and commit to the learning with an open mind, this was not all that easy when all your mates were camping or fishing for the weekend while you were at an internet workshop for 2 days which you had to pay for.
Well I am not trying to impress you or boast in any way,........ did you know I have traveled to more places in the last 10 months than I have in my life and in 2 more weeks my wife Sandra & I will be in London. Yes we have to go there for some more work related matters and it looks like we will be stuck there for around 2 weeks..!

Take care as you travel your journey in life and I want to hear any of your thoughts on your experiences , so please leave a comment or contact me with any questions or queries you feel I can help you with. I do hope my Nature Trek in Vanuatu Paradise has helped give you an insight as to what is available to us all, should we want to take the ride.
Learning to communicate success and also teach others is now a life Goal of mine.

Vanuatu Sight Seeing By Plane

Photographs and Memories to Share With Friends

  • Vanuatu Sight Seeing By Plane

As all our readers and followers enjoyed reading about all the hard work we had to do
in Vanuatu and what a great place it was to work, I thought today I would tell you a little about our sea plane sight seeing flight over the main area of Vanuatu and surrounding islands and bay's.

The photo above shows most of the main business area and harbor of Port Vila which thrives with vehicles, markets,shopping area full of tourists & locals,along side the harbor foreshore where you catch ferries and boats to the out lying islands or just cruising around the harbor which we also did another day on a catamaran . The small 4 seater sea plane we were on is kept moored at an island resort and we had to take a short ferry ride to connect with it to go on the flight.

The name of this island resort which is only 1km off the main land is Tririki and it is beautifully set out with with all the facilities you could imagine that will extract as much of your money from you as possible while they have you stranded on the island. It would be worth every cent and infact we met up with a young couple from Australia while on our cruise that had come here to get married on Tririki Island then spend a week there for their honeymoon, it is truly beautiful and recommended.

The weather was perfect all the time we were in Vanuatu so we knew our Sight Seeing By Plane was going to be excellent and our two photographers , my wife Sandra and our internet marketing friend Sharon,would be able to get some great photographs.
The shots here you will see were all taken by the girls and they give you an idea of how beautiful Vanuatu and Port Vila are , when you see the lovely clear water and calm lagoons all around the mainland. It is no wonder so many divers & snorkelers enjoy the diving here. Our friend Sean took his two sons for their first open ocean scuba dive while we were all there working hard.

Let me now show a few more photo's to help you understand the beautiful place and surroundings here and why so many tourists visit this paradise and to see it By Plane is even more spectacular. The pilot was excellent and made sure we saw everything.The island in this shot is where all the main tribal people and the Cheif of this country reside with no tourists or foreigners , it is not a very large island and is not far off the main land as you can see in the photo. They travel too and fro to the mainland by boat for shopping and other requirements. They are gentle and very friendly people and we were told that to walk the streets of night was not dangerous.

It is a great feeling when your loved one and good friends spend such special time together, like we were fortunate enough to do while we were in Vanuatu, and to also know that this trip was virtually the start or a taste of what is to come for us all in the very near future due to our internet businesses we have been structuring and building this last past 8 months.
Check the smiles out on these two lovely ladies as we flew over Vanuatu Sight Seeing.










You do not see smiles like that on the faces of people who have to line up and be at work every morning. All the time we were there I spent smiling myself, both internally and externally as I knew all our hard work was beginning to pay off and we had never experienced a lifestyle such as this in our lives prior to becomming involved with the net.

We landed back at the Tririki Island Resort and caught the ferry back to the mainland for a brouse through the shops and markets before catching a cab back to our resort, the Le-Merriddean, which is about a 6km drive across the island over the hill to a beautiful secluded area of beach and nature surroundings. I do not play golf yet there was a golf course and all the facilities included at the Le-Merriddean, we spent a lot of our time around the pool,bar & on the beach. Just a couple of more pic's and I will sign off.










I have enjoyed sharing with you all some of the sights and things we did while we were all in Vanuatu with our workmates. We also managed to go on another little expedition into the jungle and rainforest where we found some other beautiful and exciting surroundings. I will bring that to you all in my next post , so stay tuned and thanks for letting me share the time we went to Vanuatu Sight Seeing By Plane, it is now a life time experience.

Hey......life is good......

What a Week We Had in Vanuatu Working

Yes friends , our new career meant that both my lovely wife Sandra and I were required to fly to Vanuatu last week and tend to some internet marketing duties that just had to be done. We tried to get out of having to go yet our coach and mentor insisted , we make sure we were there when he arrived .

I have that much respect for Sean and Cherie Rasmussen that there was no way I was about to let them down and watch them struggle with the duties at hand it just would not have been fair. So while I was weighing up that hard decision in my intelligent brain, Sandra had already made all the bookings for flights and accommodation and invited another internet marketing friend Sharon de Bryun to come along and help .

So as I was already out voted and all the arrangements were made, I realised there was no way out of this, so just decided I would have to go to Vanuatu working.
The first thing Sean had us do was to sit down and plan what needed to be done, who was going to do what and how we should go about it all.

This is Scotty , Sharon & Sean sitting around in the Meridean Resort lounge in Vanuatu laying out the duties at hand for us all. Some of the things he wanted me to do were a little unfamiliar for an ex Plumbing contractor and I was not used to this work.
Jobs To Do List At Vanuatu
  • Visit the bar at the pool regularly and drink lots often.
  • Make sure the Pizza was always fresh and on time
  • Always finish the days work with a huge Island coctail
  • Go swimming regularly so as not to overheat and save going to the toilet
  • Take turns holding down the bananna lounges by lying on them
  • Tweeting business messages and then re-tweeting them #followfriday
  • Digging articles and stories to support the business associates
  • Plan the next days events before retiring while we were still sober.
  • last and not least. Eat as much tropical fruit and sea-food as possible
OMG !!
Do we have to do all that while were here I said to Sean, his answer was .....No not while your here that is only what we will do the first 2 days. After that I have a convention planned for us all down on the main beach where we will go over the work we have done , compare notes, drink some more, go sailing on the catamaran. Oh and bring your computers down to the beach as well , we have some more tweeting,digging ,shouting and emails to complete, he said.
The girls tried to escape and go shopping in the village, that's when our trusty guard and tracker caught them sneaking away and bought them back immediately. So Sean gave them extra duties that day, Sandra and Sharon were told to go swimming for an hour and then paddle the surf ski's for another hour as punishment.

We worked hard on all our projects and managed to finish all the required work inside the time allocated, because we were all so hard working Sean & Cherie took us into the village the last night with their two lovely boys and we were shouted a magnifficent meal at an outdoor restaurant on the harbor water front.

You see my friends most folks only dream of a job like this, only 2 yrs ago so did Sandra and I, until we met Sean & Cherie Rasmussen who have taken us under their wing and taught us that Dreams do come true if you want them too. We are still only apprentices in the internet marketing world and still have so much to learn, oh and some more work to do like the Week We Had in Vanuatu Working our little bums off with the internet marketing business.

Both Sandra and I are well on our way to becoming financially free and never having to work physically again in our lives, that has always been our Dream and how good it feels to see it unfolding as a result of lots and lots of hrs and commitment building our internet marketing business. I am in no way boasting here, yet I do hope that those who are looking towards the internet marketing as a way of replacing their income , do so seriously as any one can build a successful business online.

Well thank you all for showing interest in the life and chapters of Allen Sentance, as I have so many more chapters to complete and bring to you all. They will be things I have experienced and achieved through commitment and working hard , and as I leave you all now remember the Week We Had in Vanuatu Working can be any one.

Easter With Family and Grandchildren

Hello to all the folks who follow my blog, as you may have noticed by now I am a very family conscious person. Easter With Family and Grandchildren is always a special time for my wife Sandra and I , it is one of the times in the year we usually get together. For me personally I like to sit back and watch the young grand kid's having fun and some times even fighting with each other as kids do, you can observe all the different personalities they each have or are developing. Do you have special memories of easter time with your family as you were growing up, for our family as I grew up it always meant camping & fishing some where in the bushland or a special spot on the river.

We were taught as children at sunday school exactly what easter really was for , and we have always honored that tradition. As a working man my father had very little time off to do anything more than take us into the bush for the day catching rabbits to eat and feed the family. So easter was one of the times we had 3 full days for the easter break and so we would take full advantage of the time to make it special and quality time as a family.

I was the eldest of six children and we at the time could not afford expensive trips or holidays, and that never ever worried me, as my childhood is full of wonderful memories of the times we all spent as a family usually in the bush around nature either catching fish or rabbits which for a young boy growing up was an adventure and always exciting. No wonder today at 58 I still go fishing and love to camp in the bush, it is without a doubt the thing I love most , and I am at peace when I am with my best mate NATURE.

In the photo above you can see an adult playing in the shallows with his 4 children, he is my 33 yr old son who is a Sgt in the army at Darwin Australia, and the 4 children are his , 2 lovely little girls Chandelle & Kate . He also has the twin boys who are 5 there my future fishing mates, so I am teaching them how to fish and we go to the river often. That photo basicly is a replica or indication of me growing up, I would spend the time with the 4 children I had, camped out some where enjoying nature. So that photo shows how my son Fred has it instilled in him what I used to do with him and what my dad did with me, that to me is special.

The river you see there is 1km from my house where Sandra & I currently live, in a small Village called Adelaide River and you guessed it , this is in fact the Adelaide River also. It is located 100km south of Darwin on the stuart hwy and has about 200 residents. A beautiful picturesque quite little village, in the middle of NATURE with all the modern day services and a great place to go fishing, camping,swiming or even pig hunting if you like.

Now you know why I , the Fisherman as all my friends know me lives where he lives & until the day you pay me a visit so I can have the pleasure of showing you around my back yard, you just will never know what you are missing. We are also blessed to have our baby , Donald who is 26 and lives in Darwin with his wife Leslie and their 2 children, Andrew 5 and little girl Calin 1. I want to at this stage put another photo of some out doors on the river with us fishing.

Here my good friends is the terrible
twins Mitchell & Briley , they had a
ball this day and they caught more
fish than Poppy. Now I have been told
by on good authority that there is most
likely going to be an invasion on our
place with 6 grandchildren coming
friday and saturday. I am prepared
and will take them all down to the river, so we can have some fun together as
the mothers catch up on the gossip.

Well while you all think of the great memories you had as a child at easter time when you ate that much chocolate you were sick, and wished easter was over I will do a quick head count of who we expect as family to visit us. My son Fred & wife Kim and their 4 children, my other son Don & wife lesley with their 2 children. That is a grand total of 10 visiting family members plus myself and my darling wife Sandra, so our Easter With Family and Grandchildren is going to be a grand and traditional easter. May you all have a wonderful easter of you own and with who you love.

Hey.....life is good....... try some this easter, until my next post take care.

Without Struggle You Will Not Evolve



Fisherman welcomes you all once again to yet another inspirational person and wants to share with you all a message he recieved to-day from this close friend in Kenya. The man I am speaking of is to the right here, he is Jared Akama Ondieki. What he has in common with the other two on the left is they are of all the same background , the two on the left are in fact already very great and respected leaders.

What I want to point out to you all here is that they and Jared all started out with a VISION ..... Jared also has a vision and is only 30 yrs old. He wants to lead his people in Kenya to true freedom and peace, and intends to achieve this goal in the near future. At the moment he is working to save starving & orphaned Children.
This Is His Message Today

Subject: Dear Member
20-march-2009
Dear Friends,

Where did the week go!
It's Friday!
I hope and trust that the week was great as I wish you a great weekend ahead.

As I went on with my daily work this week,I thought about you and wondered what you were doing at the time and the following story came to my mind,read this:-

A man was confined to a bed for months.On his windowsill,there was a cocoon going through the motions as nature took its course,the butterfly inside struggled to emerge.But it was a long,painful and hard battle.
As hours passed,the struggling insect made no progress.
And at this Point,the man felt sorry for the poor insect and decided to help.He took a pair of scissors and snipped the opening of the cocoon larger.The butterfly crawled out,but that is all it ever did-Crawl.

The Pressure of the struggle was meant to strengthen it's wings and give them life.However the cleverness and mercy this human batched the birth.It was a stunted abortion!

* So friends remember....Without Struggle You Will Not Evolve.

Wonderful people,it is my hope that all this Economic,social and Political Problems we are facing today are meant to make us stronger and emerge Victor and never to crawl in issues of life,I am sure after all this we will emerge United and stay close to each other always as we are already doing.

Let Peace,Interdependence and Love be the outcome of our struggle for we shall have come out strong and full of life.

You are all my brothers and Sisters and I will always stay close to you in spirit.Kindly lets invite more people to join us as we work together towards our common goals for the people and the children.

Thanks,

Sincerely,

Jared Akama Ondieki.
--------------------
I am very proud and honored to have him as my now personal friend, and we have combined our efforts from this point on to help and save as many of the underprivilaged, starving & orphaned children as we can. I have already set up a friendship program for the orphaned children already in jareds care at the orphanage.
From here we will be working towards raising the funds to set Jared and the orphanages school up with a computer ,printer and associated equiptment to help in the education and co-ordination of all future programs we intend to implement.

Should you feel you can assist us in any way please contact myself on this email AllenSentance@gmail.com and I will let you know how you can help.

My New Online Friends Help Fisherman



The Fisherman as you all probably know by now is in fact me Allen Sentance, and to-day I want to honour the good friends I have made since joining the internet world as they are the ones who have delivered me through the barriers and challe
nges to a place now where the world has become what ever I want it to be.

Yes all my life I have worked like a demon and have always been proud of just how good a worker I am and my life has overall been quite good, not as good as I would have liked yet I have learned to be grateful for what you have as there is always some one who would love to trade places with you , no matter how bad you think your life is.

I have learned also and believe that if you can manage to count all your true friends on your fingers of one hand at the end of your life, then you can consider yourself very fortunate. You see most people throughout their life aquire what they think are friends yet when the chips are down and they turn to them, they discover these so-called friends were in fact only aquaintences.

Well for me over the last 18 months I have truly been on a roller coaster believe me, my life hit the wall and not only was I struggling with life and what it was all about, I discovered the difference between true friends & aquaintences. I then realised I needed change in my life, So like many others to-day I turned to the internet with the hope of developing an income that would replace my current one.

I discovered it
was not that easy and infact it was hopeless and was never going to happen......UNTIL.. the day I came across a man by the name of Sean Rasmussen, that was the beginning of Fishermans new life without a doubt. This man has a method of internet marketing that very few have, he explained to me that if I was good at working hard and applied it to his methods , then I could replace my current income sooner than I realised.

The rest is a story for another day as it is a beautiful story of the fisherman being re-born. By building this successful internet business I have to-day I was exposed to meeting thousands of people, through setting up of social networks & joining online classes to learn the computer and apply Seans techniques. At this point I want to share with you all a link to an internet book which Sean wrote and gave to me, it was the basics to the internet I began with...Thank you Sean...
You get it here.... Year Of The Affiliate by Sean Rasmussen ...

Now I also started to meet hundreds of like minded people and began sharing information and developing friend ships, not just where I live and the majority of them come from other countries all around the globe. I am also now involved with a very close knit group of internet marketers , who are my personal friends and business associates, who to-date look like being friends for life.

The Fisherman would without hesitation state that he now has more genuine friends who would stand by him through thick and thin, then he has managed to aquire from his previous 40 yrs of life, sad in a way yet true. I highly recommend the internet to anyone... just get with the proper people and develop the skills before expecting to generate big incomes, in fact if there is any one message I could give you to save the heartache of dissapointment and loss of money is this..... Never Get Involved With Any Program That Promises To generate Quick or Instant Income.....As I can assure you from experience , It generates instant income for them only...

I am very passionate about the possibilities on the internet now and Fisherman has so many great friends from it that he intends to pass on the teaching and integrity that was given to him. He still has a long way to go himself and is currently still under the full time training and guidance of his now mentor & life long friend Mr. Sean Rasmussen.

The Birth Of a Child and Love Of a Mother

Hello and how are all of my great friends ?
Fisherman wants to welcome you here with him.

To-day I want to talk about some beautiful things that have happened to me since joining the world of internet just 12 months ago. You may have read some of my very first blog posts that are now archived & I explained there how I struggled to learn the computer. Well I am glad to say that through a few beautiful friends efforts and my commitment I am better now then I was back then , and mind you I have in no way finished learning. What I have done though is managed to uncover the true power of the internet through affiliate marketing and am now in fullon mode building an internet business under the direct coaching and supervision of one of Australia's outstanding and successful internet coaching teams.. http://www.smartonlineprofitsystems.com.au/SeanRasmussen

Well I would say that was my first beautiful thing that happened to me in the last 12 months.

Moving on I must say there have been numerous events that have happened for me and my lovely wife Sandra for which I will be forever grateful, I will only touch on a few of the most signifficant ones here. I then was fortunate enough to enter into a group of internet marketers that were hand picked from Australia and England by none other than one of Australia's most successful internet marketers Mr. Sean Rasmussen and his beautiful wife Cherie. We are now personal friends of theirs as well as the other 22 students and their families from all over , more about this great and influential group another day and another post in the near future.

I have become intensely involved on the internet also with social natworking and have set up my own personal social networking site where people can join and mix with other like minded and positive thinking folks. This site has been a godsend for me and at first I had no idea what I was doing, now our members are nearing 100 and they have all become personal friends of mine through regular contact on this site.

Feel free to join me here on this site as you too can meet so many wonderful people from around the world ... http://www.lifeisgoodsocialnetwork.ning.com

A lot of people who now know me on a personal basis, know just how passionate I am about Children, good friends & nature. Well I have saved this little treat for you all until the end it is special to my heart and the person it is about.
About 9 months ago , I became good friends with a lovely young woman on the internet at this forum http://www.universalwealthcreation.com/forum/
And once again feel free to check this forum out it is full of wonderful people.

This young womans name is Viki and on the forum they know her as goodthingscome
now I want to let you know she has had to do the IVF program to have children and for an eternity was broken hearted on many occasions with failure after failure to become pregnant. Now with a never say die attitude a lot of practice and persistance, she was rewarded with her first child a little son she named Andrew.
Can you imagine how excited Viki & Shane were, I want to now share with you a poem that Viki had written prior to knowing she was getting little Andrew. This is the power of manifestation at it's best which Viki , Shane & I all believe in
OUR CHILD
By Vittoria McDonald

Our child
by: Vittoria McDonald a dear friend of Fisherman.

To my special little child, The day has finally come. When
you ask those wonderful questions Of how you became our son.
You see your story is quite different, But very much the
same. It happened the way most things do, Born from love
heartache and pain. Unable to have you the way others do, We
tried and tried and found our way. It cost lots of money
sweat and tears We cried and cried for what felt like years.
But our day of mourning has finally past. Celebrations are
here, our day at last. So here's to you our pride and joy,
And to the world of IVF who gave us our boy.

This is Andrew, he is a little champion and thank you Viki & Shane for a job well done. Oh !! now wait this is the most exciting part, I spoke with Viki yesterday and she has informed me success has come yet once again. Andrew is going to get a little brother in 4 weeks time....HOW COOL IS THAT... Below is an ultrasound of the soon to be born little brother for Andrew...taken at 33wks.. Just love it !!!


Well my friends these are just some beautiful things I am sharing and I would love to do a follow up with Viki once the big event has passed. Thank you all for reading my post it is special to me and if you have enjoyed it share it with others and show appreciation with a digg.

Hey.....life is good..... and gratitude & belief will deliver all
