Do they have modern conveniences in Fiji?
As a former British colony, Fiji has many of the modern conveniences you would find in the western world, such as air conditioning, large grocery stores, ATMs, and modern hospitals. However, during our time in the villages, you can expect a much simpler lifestyle. All buildings are open air, and women traditionally cook on a fire. Villages often can support themselves by growing their own vegetables and selling them at local markets for income. Agriculture is a big part of Fijian life. Few people can afford cars, so most people travel by foot or public bus.
