Your photos ? Have you been there ?

Seems to be a very surreal place, how much does it cost to get there ?

Can you take the ferry from South Africa or Namibia ?

What did the locals think of tourists taking photos ?

An average salary is about 4000£ a year, add to that the cost of living like food, clothes and so on is the double compared to mainland UK.

But I don't think they pay much rent, I don't think they even have internet ?

BTW the location of St Helena on the world map is not correct !

Great, very nice photos indeed. BTW, if those photos are yours, you may ask one of the moderators of "Cityscapes and Skyline Photos" to move your thread into "Urban Showcase"
