Meaningful Programs in the Fiji Islands

Going on an expedition with Think Pacific was the best decision of my life so far. Working with the charity gives you the opportunity to experience a beautiful part of the world not many people are lucky enough to see, whilst also completing such positive work for the country. Think Pacific were incredibly helpful from the moment I showed interest in volunteering, and had everything covered on both the UK and Fiji side.

My project in Korolevu has been incredible. It’s been so different to anything you could ever imagine, and for that reason I’m so grateful to Think Pacific for the opportunity.  I’ve loved socialising with the Fijians. They’ve done so much to ensure we’ve felt truly accepted within the community. Nearly everybody you pass greets you with “Bula” and a huge smile across their face.  I felt so far from everything I knew yet so at home at the same time.  Coming out here has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I’ll cherish my experiences with the charity for the rest of my life.

Think Pacific is an amazing organisation. Prior to departure the staff were friendly and always helpful. During the project I learnt so much about the Fijian way of life which is not only inspiring but very interesting. The days are very busy, there is always something to do and that is what makes the trip so worthwhile and fun. Leaving the village was such a sad day as we formed such a tight bond with the community.
