The Experience

Voluntourism (Volunteer + travel) is a form of ecotourism. Where volunteers immerse themselves in a new culture and learn/life from a different perspective altogether. This role enables one to learn and exchange cultures, get community work experience, and form lifelong friendship or even professional networks. Volunteers will be doing projects in a local community from Monday through Friday and have weekends off to rest and recuperate.

I got to create great memories and experience amazing things with lovely people while living in a Fijian village. From playing x's and o's in the sand with leaves and sticks to fish feeding, exploring caves, cutting fresh coconuts, swimming to other islands, building mermaid tails for the kids out of sand and it'd be rude not to mentioned all the colouring in I did. I had a very wholesome experience and all though I couldn't understand everything being said there were a lot of laughs. The work that goes into cooking as well is amazing. I hope to visit nacula again someday soon.

I had a really great time volunteering with the project in the village. I really got to learn about the fijian way of life and became part of the community and it was hard to leave. Would recommend for anyone who wants to go outside their comfort zone experiencing a different way of life and wants to learn and experience the fijian culture fully.
