Follow the Journey

Six days ago we left the resort at Mango Bay and traveled half way across Fiji to the village of Nananu. There we started working on the pathway throughout the village. We all love our home stay families and everyone has been so incredibly welcoming, nice, and accepting of all of us. On the first night, they told us that we will forever be part of their family. Today we went to the Fiji water plant where they make Fiji Water. It’s the only plant of theirs in the world so to be able to go there was so incredible. After that, when we were coming out of the plant, we ran into the other Carpe Diem FANZ group. We were unfortunately unable to talk to them due to the “fear” that we would start to compare the two groups experiences. But it was still interesting to see them. Right now, we are wandering around the town of Tavua where we will be spending the day here and then returning to Nananu. Then we leave the village next Wednesday and will travel to the town of Nadi (pronounced Nandi) for three days and then will fly out of Nadi to New Zealand. It has been an incredibly fun, exciting, and enlightening experience and we all look forward to what is in our future. Until next blog. 🙂
