Life on the world's most remote island, a mother reveals the challenges she faces

A British mother living on the world's most remote uninhabited island has offered a glimpse into her daily life, including what she does to fight hunger.
Kelly Green, who is originally from East Sussex, now documents her life in Tristan da Cunha on social media.
The 35-year-old moved to the volcanic island in the South Atlantic more than 10 years ago and despite the hardships, she hasn't looked back.
The island, which is only accessible by boat from Cape Town, South Africa, boasts just one shop - which closes during the winter.
Kelly moved to the island after visiting her parents there, who had relocated themselves due to her father's job.
And it was there that she soon met her husband, Shane, with whom the couple has two children who attend the island's only school.
"So living on the most uninhabited island in the world means that if you wake up one morning and want fish for dinner, you can't go to the local store and buy it," Kelly said in a TikTok video.
Kelly went on to explain that the store closure on the island also coincides with the government shutdown.
"It closes on December 19th and reopens on January 12th," she said.
"So you have to make sure you have everything, like toilet paper," Kelly added.
Kelly runs the island's tourism office, which, according to its website, states that Tristan was ignored by early explorers as a potential home due to its rugged mountainous landscape, lack of natural harbor, lack of land for agriculture and a harsh climate with torrential rains and strong winds in all seasons.
As of October 2018, the island has 250 permanent residents. /Telegraph/
