Every week my friend Grazyna and I swim from Malesso’s shoreline halfway towards Dåno’, also known as Cocos Island, and back. We started our weekly swim during the pandemic about 15 months ago and look forward to our swim every week.
[...] the biggest change is that last month, we were greeted by Fåhang – brown noddy – and occasionally we would see a CHunge’ – white tern – before we began our swim on Guåhan. [...]
