Do I need to be fluent in a foreign language?
No, English is one of the three official languages of Fiji, so you do not need to be fluent in Fijian or Hindi. Almost everyone you meet in the tourism industry and in the villages will speak English. Learning a few simple phrases like “Bula” (hello/welcome) and “Vinaka” (thank you) will be appreciated by the locals!

What is the food like in Fiji?
The food is a delicious blend of traditional Fijian, Indian, and Western influences. Meals often feature fresh seafood, chicken, rice, tropical fruits (like pineapple and papaya), and root crops like cassava. A highlight is the traditional Lovo—meat and vegetables slow-cooked underground. We always ensure there are plenty of options, including dishes familiar to Western palates, and we are easily able to accommodate dietary restrictions.

What should I pack for the tropical climate?
Pack light, breathable clothing, and be sure to bring plenty of swimwear! You’ll need bathing suits for swimming, comfortable walking/hiking shoes, and sandals. For village visits and service projects, it is important to pack modest clothing that covers your shoulders and knees out of respect for local customs—long shorts or light skirts/pants and T-shirts are perfect. And don’t forget strong, reef-safe sunscreen and a reusable water bottle!
