Tokelau is a remote group of atolls in the South Pacific Ocean. It is located halfway between Hawaii and New Zealand, of which it's a territory. Tokelau consists of 3 atolls with a combined area of just 10 sq km, and has a population of approximately 1,500. With the smallest economy in the world , it is still a leader - it is the first nation in the world to be 100 per cent powered by solar power.
David's card shows us the shape of Nukunonu Island - one of the three atolls, along with Tokelau's Flag.
David used a 2014 stamp showing Tokelau Weaving. It's from a set of 4.
Thanks to David I can knock another one of the list. With Tokelau on board I just have 9 left on the list. That's MY list of course - others have different lists and I respect that. Some places on MY list might not be considered by others and vice versa.
The 9 remaining places I need and would like a card from are :
Australian Antarctic Territory
Central African Republic
Congo ( Democratic Rep )
Guineau-Bissau
Liberia
Niuafo'ou
Sierra Leone
South Sudan
and Transnistria
So you all know the drill - if you are going to any of these places, if you know anyone going to any of these places for any reason, don't forget me . You'll be in my debt.
There you go, a short and sweet update. And BIG thanks to David .
Be back here soon !

Shame on the healthiest economies in the world,--- if little Tokelau can be powered 100% by solar power why can't we achieve this. Koodos to them , show the world how it's done!!!!!!
