That’s why the company decided to report local stories to you in comic form! And now summer is transforming our island into the ideal escape. Want to go on a vacation you can actually afford? How about embarking for a brand new set of amusing (and mentally scarring) adventures?
Exotic locations, debt-collecting African spirits, a travel influencer aboard a giant robot, a family fighting a demon for their Mbnb and a superhero monkey suing the corporation that owns him. All these and more await our guests!
