Predominantly, you will learn about the subsistent way of life that most islanders live, picking up bits and pieces of information as you talk and mix with the local people. Each day you will have different opportunities to experience something new and during your stay, you are likely to take part in most of the following things (and more!):
- Learn about local medicines made from native plants
- Go fishing Fiji-style
- Relax on the beach, swim or snorkel in the warm crystal clear waters
- Take a bamboo raft (bilibili) to nearby islands
- Walks in the jungle to swim in the waterfalls
- Learn basic Fijian phrases
- Eat traditional meals cooked in the “Lovo”
- Play the national sport of Fiji, 7’s rugby on the beach
