How funny. My husband was in the British army and stationed in Germany a young soldier from Fiji arrived. It was winter and winters in Germany can be brutally cold. The poor guy was not acclimatised, yet, coming straight from the UK, where the winters are much milder. So my husband made sure Chief, that's what we called him, was only working indoors. Lovely guy, we invited him for Christmas, as most people on camp went home to visit family and the would've been pretty much by himself. Our son was over moon that he had a friend who would spend hours playing Nintendo with him. Great times.
Ivain bula welcome home
I’m from California I was in Fiji in 2000. I love the Fijian people. Since I was a black man the local Fijians treated me like family. Everywhere I went the local Fijians were hooking me up left and right, free breakfast free lunch free drinks etc. I was introduced to the Mayor she gave me her card and told me if I have any issues to reach out to hear. Enjoy brother soak up both the cultures Indian and Fijians. Don’t forget to go to a village. Fiji life Bula Vinaka
Since I was a white man the locals treated me like family too
In Fijian culture, everyone is treated like family regardless of what country they're from. Same vibes across the pacific islands where family is everything.
Love the angle youre taking. Im from Fiji living in California ... you wont go wrong getting to know the locals - fijians, indo fijians, and every mix in the mix. Fiji is not so much the beach n the sun n the hotels ... but the people. Safe exciting travels !!!
Beautiful vacation spot. Wow! That nature homemade drink looks interesting, but I would pass on it also 😅. I'm looking forward to more Fiji videos. Great content, Ivain. I enjoyed watching 👍👍👍.
Bula Ivan. Lived in Fiji for 13 yrs. Loved it!

Love this content!
💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿🔥🔥🔥🔥🥾on the ground
Lovely content. Fiji is a beautiful island or country. Fijians are very friendly & the native Fijians are the only ones in the Pacific area who know that their ancestors came from Africa through Tanzania. They sing well too. Thanks for showing us how Cava is made.
B.S narrative. Its Asia and there's proof in the form of its language and culturre.Fiji museum has it all.
Always wanted to fit this place.. thanks for the video 👊🏾
Thanks a lot for watching! Fiji 🇫🇯 to the world!
Good advice at the start of the video regarding taking cash out from ATMs. Let your own bank do the conversion!
Iventures Ventures I know you were going to drink cava. Very good lots of health benefits.
Very beautiful place nice vlog 🎉I love it ❤🎉new friend garf adventure
The hands working that drink is my issue. There is no way it can done differently? Thanks for sharing. Good video. Enjoy your visit and stay safe.❤
😂
At-P:. Back in the day people used to make homebrew in the same tub as everyone washed in. They would clean the tub before making the brew and as the saying goes the alcohol will kill the germs. Americans have gotten soft now and don't want to drink bathtub brew. But still I agree that there could be a less hands on approach to making drink.
I agree 100%
That’s exactly how I felt 😂
You order fast food don’t you
My family are going on a cruise to Fiji in September 2024
Niceee
You right Ivan , numbness of the tongue is no joke 😂😂😂
Brother Wellcome to the pacific islands..... please visit Solomon islands
I too, would love to Brother Ivan visit the Solomon Islands,
I think its where the Polynesian people have natural blonde afros. Thats very unique.
Bro since your in the Pacific hit the Solomon Islands
Avoid the yellow taxi outside the airport
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Such lovely mixed race looking people. My friend looks more from the Indian side of the race.
FYi, without trying to offend any ethnicity in Fiji, I would like to correct you by saying that there is very little mix that happens in Fiji. However, socialisation between the different ethnicities is a normal thing in Fiji
@SammyG-p7e oh! Ok, thanks!
37:05 that dude "shayo"
In Fiji, when people stand while there sitting, its treated as being rude. In your case its exceptional because your invited and foreign. Ask first and Film from the outside next time and not inside of that gathering. That vlogging thing is not new to them. They have their own vloggers online as well.Reknown vloggers such as "Mark Wiens" and many others been there and loved it and very respectful as well.A guy from cameroon did come to fiji and was rude big time, making rude comments about our woman. Just be careful.There watching quietly of such people.
I'm guessing said Cameroonian guy goes by the name of visualpoet presumably?
@@SustainableEcoFriendlyTips I'm Fijian too bro, didn't really have to tell me those things that get foreigners into trouble. 😂
Ivain I have a question for you. I've noticed just about world wide people don't have a problem eating and drinking after one another. Here in the US you rarely see that happening. I know you have noticed that Americans have a problem with that. When I was a small kid back in the late 60s early 70s we would go to my grand parents house and they had no running water they got their drinking water from a well. They would have a bucket with a dipper in it and everyone would drink from that. I think back to them how I would drink from that same container and now no way I could do it. I think my mother started it because she would never drink after us. She taught us to never drink after anyone. My question is was this something that you noticed right off when you got to the US or is it not as noticeable as I am making it to be?
I think that you are 100% right. It is something that I noticed right away. I have to tell you I’m not very comfortable with it either. I don’t judge people who do it as it’s just a cultural difference. However, I really don’t like it. 😂
@@IvainTuresThe way you travel I would imagine that it is tough trying to not come off as being disrespectful when people offer you something from their culture just like that drink you refused during this video. I liked that they did not seem offended. I like these kinds of videos where you take us to where these people live and see them in that environment. Seeing them in a resort environment is like not seeing who they are at all. I appreciate this video.
@@beaujac311 - I totally agree with you. 👍
When I visit a place I value and seek out the authentic culture and traditions of a people, rather than staying at the resort full time.
Ivanture when are you coming to Trinidad and 🇹🇹 October 23 to 31 / 2024 . Come tobago is a vibes you will promote our country
I Hope soon. I have a friend from there and we
Will get there eventually. Thanks so much for watching ! I appreciate you!
In Africa, in this Taqanaika region, dwelt for a long time warrior group of people called the ' Viti ' people Africa king them very well
Now Tanzania
1st century cushites from Ethiopia settle in Tanganyika
10th century AD about this time the fable of fijian from Tanganyika ( Chronological History man in Tanganyika)
What’s with the Indian music bro. It’s Fiji not India
Awesome Adventures brother but the real Fiji are the out lying Islands, the Coastal Villages...not those 5 stars Hotels, Towns etc.
It fable that about this the powerful chief Lutunasobasoba and his people followed the trade cross the Indian Ocean traveling south east Asia settled Fiji Island pacific
Bro Papua New Guinea is the place....if you want something different....
Bula Ivain...just hearing you saying that you are disappointed during that tour in the village...with all those hand made stuff...too bad you are going with those Indians..because the one that suppose to tour you are fijians..because those two are tourists too.
Vinaka
Oppressive heat and mosquitoes... 🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟
😫😫😫
Guess I'll never get to see Fiji in person like my dad did, but I'm glad that there's videos like yours around!
👍👏🙌✌️🤟☝️🫶🖖
Iventures Ventures the real Cava
Thanks so much for watching!
Being a grandson of a fijian chief, our legend state we traveled down the river Rufiji in Africa south of Tanzania , Apparently we were warrior who also worked as gold mines Egypt
Dude!!!!, my advice, please visit a village, ask permission to stay with them for two or three nights, they will show the basics and routine of a villager, go to their farms go to the sea and do some diving or fish to catch for lunch or dinner, settlements are not villagers.
Why do Fijian circumcision
No doubt the fijian brought the custom with them in remote times, and it's origin is probably the same in their case as in that of the Nacua of Central America, the Egyptian and Bantu race
Should go to the hospitals in Fiji and show the world how disgusting the place is run ,very sad
Most Fijians are pure Fijians not mixed
Kava is banned in Australia ! Kava look like dirty water 😮 I don’t think will be able to drink something like this 😂
I didn’t know it was banned in Australia! So interesting!
Fiji is completely different from Australia.... different cultures...no need to compare at all
Kava is not banned in Australia
It’s not banned in Australia,you’re allowed to bring 2 kg from Fiji any time and it’s sold in all the states
Whats with the Indian music in the background!!
Avoid standing when people are sitting
Hey folks this is the big mouth who went to Auckland city NZ and thinks he’s seen NZ.
So annoying especially in the fact you nowhere near India.
Fiji is known as mini India. Do some research on their cultural heritage and maybe the music won’t annoy you so much. Thanks for watching!
@IvainTures Fiji is not known as Mini India. It is a Pacific Island country in the region of Oceania and is grouped under the Melanesian Islands cultural grouping and shares its heritage with neighboring Polynesia. It has 30% of Indian ancestry population known as Indo-Fijians (not mixed) who have been living in Fiji for over a century and their culture have integrated into the life and fabric of Fiji. However, it is no way known as Little India.
