Once in a lifetime experience

Review
The Think Pacific Fiji volunteer trip was the best experience I have ever undertaken. You get to immerse yourself into the true Fijian way of life, living with some of the kindest, loving and caring people you will ever meet.
I learnt so much from the culture courses such as farming, weaving and gender roles.
The opportunity to lead workshops sessions was equally enjoyable, giving us a chance to learn with the Fijian youth important matters such as the climate, public health, mental health, leadership, business and sports. These were all enjoyable sessions which allowed each group covering the session to put their own twist on the lesson plan. Sessions involved lots of activities including acting/role play, making/creating and even a creating pretend stalls for a fair!
Free time allows time to truly bond with families, the children and each other as volunteers. Fijians love sport so there is lots of opportunity to play sports such as volleyball and touch rugby!! We even set up a sports day which was a day jam packed with activities.
Weekends are equally enjoyable with Think Pacific organising trips such as the seeing a waterfall, going to the beach and visiting a river in which we helped youth build a bilibili raft and catch fish!
I couldnt recommend this trip enough - it has stuck with me in my heart; the love and warmth you will feel from the Fijians is like no other. This truly is a once in a lifetime experience as each village is only ever visited once! And each memory made will be totally individual to you
