Bula everyone!!!
I have arrived safely, and i am having an awesome time. We spent the first few nights in Nadi where i got to meet all the other beautiful volunteers and settle in to the fijian way of life. We learnt how to catch a public bus which have open windows, we also went to the market and looked and local fruits and veggies. At the market my group was also in charge of buying the cava to take as a gift to the village, which was an experince. When we got to the village we were all welcomed into one of the houses and we sat around on the floor with people from the village and the cava is offered around in a dried out coconut, there are certain things you have to do before and after drinking it such as one clap before they give it to you and 3 claps after you have drunk, it also must be drunk in one mouthfull. It made you loose a bit of feeling in your mouth but it was really fun hanging out with the locals. We traveled 4 hours yesterday to get to Suva where i am now at my placement, i have my own room which is basic but very nice, jemma and i share a toilet and shower, we even have a bath and washing machine with other vols are very jelous of! Jemma is really nice and i am glad i have her with me. I officially start work tomorrow so i will have more to update.
I am having a ball and i miss you all

Gen wat up eve, i've been missing my twin terribly. my favourite part of this blog so far is when you lose feeling in your mouth after drinking cava yet you don't seem to be too stressed out about that haha love you tuts xox

Tori Hey fb, sounds like you are having such a sweet time. Good effort drinking the cava dad said it is very tough drink to have. You drinking must be improving. I have just been working pretty much, trying to save so I can come visit you. Kim lost in the tennis, so I m pretty shattered and am not watching the aus open anymore because I am so frustrated. Have a great Australia day! Missing you heaps xx Love Tori
