Hello everyone,

Moving to Fiji means leaving one's family and friends behind. Creating a circle of friends or joining an existing one should therefore be paramount in order to fight loneliness in your host country.

But how can one develop a social network in Fiji? Where and how to meet people there?

How easy is it to meet locals? What about cultural specificities?

Share your advice and experience!

Many thanks in advance,

Priscilla

Having moved from Papua New Guinea, where the social life is SO active, I have found it quite hard to meet people. I have now been here nearly 3 months and have met some lovely people, of all nationalities. But the sorts of gatherings, events, parties, etc, that I am used to just don't exist, as far as I can see. I got involved in a charity, which is a great way to meet people.
