Bula Waka fam! All the best with making vlogs. Very interesting and nice experience for the fam. Take care esp during this bad weather and loloma❤. Funny thing: was watching a couple of the videos and realised something about the Steph that she looks alot like Adele the singer😊 are you's related?
Jon, one more thing.. I was actually thinking of the fijian word.. 'wakha'.... as in 'roots'... for the name that steph and you and your dad came up with for your set up.. i thought that must have been the reason.. anyway... choice..
Plus am actually learning from you twos experience too good! especially understanding the concept of starting a business because am heading the direction...off the grid living..
Bula Re Waka family, what an inspirational story you guys have during these crazy uncertain Covid times. You guys are lucky enough to be ahead of the pack that are still reassessing their whole work/lifestyle due to just about everything thats going on in the world today like, Covid, Climate Change, Trumpism, Racial Politics, Geo Politics etc. . . I hope to be back home myself in a couple of years with business ideas. Hopefully your story would inspire others in the Fijian diaspora around the world to take that leap of faith back home that they've been contemplating this past year while quarantining. Moce mada and all the very best to your ventures. 🙏🏽
Well thanks! Sometimes your dreams can only be achieved with a leap of faith. We’d rather try and fail then not try and wonder “what if” when we’re old and grey hehe
Waka in Fijian means roots… so really you guys are taking your family back to “the roots” so yeah, great choice!!! It literally is what you guys are doing … going back to your “waka” / ie “roots”!
THE first thing that convince me to follow your page on fb is becoz of the name WAKA family. In solomon islands pijin waka means work WORK. And so in our pidjin waka family means a working family,covers hard work,perseverance and determination. And we're as friends around the region we really admired and salute you for the great work you did so far..❤❤❤❤love the WAKA FAMILY..God bless
Dan from the Solomon's I recently been following the Waka Family youtube channel....this is excellent environment to raise boys because I too have two boys. My up bringing is of similar so please keep sharing the beautiful Vanua Levu. Naka reh!
Whats up brother. Bula from California. Stumbled across this channel its amazing what you guys are doing. It looks so peaceful life on fiji time. But im sure it is hectic and crazy that we dont see on this platform. Cheers will follow this as we are planning a life in fiji in future.
Yes for sure. There are hectic times. But naturally, it’s at those times I don’t pull out the video camera because I forget in the commotion haha. Thanks for the support
Well done thus far to your new startup business in Fiji, well planned with how you've incorporated Vlogging. Your success is the unity you have with your wife and how well you both work together. She is an incredible women on how she has enthusiastically embraced another culture having fun. I hope to resume my Fiji business on my return but better planned but definitely the opportunities are there but more like a pioneer. Portuguese, i also learnt as i spent 3 months in Brazil but forgot most of it now and my Fijian isn't that great either. Keep the good work going. love from the UK where its cold and miserable
Don’t stress about the language. Unless it’s a goal for you. We can’t master everything but if we focus on what is important to us we will have a better chance of achieving it. Language is a discouragement at times for me but just gotta control what I can control
Vinaka Waka Family Thank you for coming back to the roots and with a positive attitude.and most of all relying on God. Vinaka sara vakalevu. Looking forwad to more videos
Bula.. Pop up stations in Fiji would be good for your merchandise. And I really enjoy the Waka family vlogs. Keep them coming. God bless you all. In your endeavors and your great willingness to help your village and your fellow Fijians. Vinaka .
Hello again Waka family! Can't wait to order your brand so that I can wear in 🇬🇧. I have a lot of Fijians living in our area and at least I can advertise your brand 😉 Please keep them video coming!

Bula re Jonathan and your beautiful Waka family.Thank you for the informative Q&A session.Your storyline identifies with Bua provinces' very own homegrown Mr.Rob Cromb,now a conglomerate founder and owner of internationally renowned Lyndhurst Group of Companies-Kookai Brand.If not already,Trademark and patent your WAKA brand name and with your samples,you can approach their internationally renowned team led by Roko Seru Nabalarua at Government Tax Free Zone at Valelevu-Nasinu.Just worth giving it a try.Never know,you might just strike another luck.Tonnes of God's blessings to your good selves for always..

A blessed 2021 guys, you both are so inpiring, I love watching all your vlogs brother J and thank you for keeping it real bro. Even though I have not met you guys, it feels as if we are family. Be strong and soldier on and remember Isa 40:31, Jer 29:11, Jos 1:9 and Mat 7:7. I am originally from Rakiraki but residing in Sydney AU now. Hoping one day (God willing) to break bread with you and have fellowship with the family. Lolomaz to you both and the two li'll ones. Be Blessed.
Bula vinaka..Thank you very much for answering my question,it was the 4th question and I really can't wait for the t-shirts and hoods coz I love WAKA Family and I want to represent you here in Lautoka and let people know about you😍 Love you always WAKA FAMILY ❤❤
Yes thanks for the question! Wow, that’s so awesome:) We really really appreciate your enthusiasm! It makes it so much funnier to do what we do. Much love!
Thank you For your reflections. Not sure if I have asked this before. Just interested to know your opinion. Will you reserve a piece of your land to be kept unspoilt, untouched?
The best place;) We have started a GoFundMe campaign to try to raise money to help rebuild peoples homes and restore property damage and help out the villages here with things they need.

There was supposed to be a startup by the Tavioka Growers Association of huge cassava flour mill, but that never came to fruition. That would be really neat one day though. Gluten free flour
Oh I guess this answered my question about Waka.I thought Waka is your last name and of course you're part Fijian.Love your channel though.Greetings from Australia
We’re trying everything. But between it being hard to find good people here in Fiji and the time delays due to COVID when bringing things from overseas it’s been toigh
Eg. Teespring. No need to import and re-export. Those of us overseas won’t mind the relative pricing. Rebate the import pricing based on address. Else get in touch with Horace Gock. His operation was called Stayin’ Alive Fiji.

Love to watch all your episodes. You two make a lovely couple and beautiful children. Wish you all the success in Fiji. My parents were from wailevu. Are you thinking of exporting kava to Brisbane?
Maybe watermelon but not pineapple. My uncle is a big pineapple apple farmer very close to us and we try very hard not to compete with any family members.
kiaora from New Zealand very cool to watch your videos , how inspiring , nice to hear you talk about the balanced life with Jesus first :) , how are things with you guys ? waka means canoe in maori , the maori came to New Zealand from Hawaii on Waka
Just thought I'd drop in that Māori came to Aotearoa from across Moana nui a kiwa not just Hawai'i. They also have their own creation stories that originate from the whenua of Aotearoa.
Your wife definitely looks up to you, respects you and supports you whole heartedly
Absolutely correct,we all can see the way they respect each other.
I’m from the Highlands Part of PNG (Enga Province) and my people are born farmers and seeing your family go back to your roots and doing what you’re doing is great.

No we don’t. Fiji is not authorized as a region to be monetized from TH-cam. Too bad but oh well:) hopefully people can support by buying merch
@@WakaFamily you can tweet with mentioning TH-cam

Sa yadra Waka family! Can you make flour from tavioka as your business here in Fiji?I'm Jone Kelei from Ellington, Rakiraki, thanks
There was supposed to be a startup by the Tavioka Growers Association of huge cassava flour mill, but that never came to fruition. That would be really neat one day though. Gluten free flour

Maybe use overseas t shirt supply aggregators?
We’re trying everything. But between it being hard to find good people here in Fiji and the time delays due to COVID when bringing things from overseas it’s been toigh
