Fiji, a country in the South Pacific, is an archipelago of more than 300 islands. It's famed for rugged landscapes, palm-lined beaches and coral reefs with clear lagoons. Its major islands, Viti Levu and Vanua Levu, contain most of the population. Viti Levu is home to the capital, Suva, a port city with British colonial architecture. The Fiji Museum, in the Victorian-era Thurston Gardens, has ethnographic exhibits.

This is part 2 of my adventure off the beaten path in Nadi, Fiji. Kindly checkout part 1 if you haven't already. Also, please keep in mind that Fiji is a very diverse country. Based on the culture, some of the practices described on the video will be different. Kindly hit the 👍button. It's truly appreciated. Subscribe for more soon!!
Go to native Fijian village and speak with the Ratu(village chief), sit down and drink grog(kava) and chat about their origin story, you may find this interesting
Whats the name of this primary school ? Is this in Nadi ?
Good one.
As a person who previously lived in Fiji for 7 years, I have never seen Fiji in the other light than being a very beautiful place with very pro max friendly locals.
Fiji is an amazing island. I can’t wait to go even deeper next time.
My dream place....I want to visit Fiji🎉❤❤❤
Very nice video, Ivain. It's really nice to see the different kind of resources that's available to the children in that community. I'm glad to see that the classes are not overcrowded. The students will definitely thrive in that system. I grew up wearing uniforms to school in Jamaica, I really do think that it encourages students to do their best in their studies. It's almost the same as Catholic or private school in the US. Great content brother. Thank you so much for sharing this visit to the school. I enjoyed watching 👍👍👍.
I agree about what you said regarding the uniforms. I do believe it’s much better. Thanks a lot for watching Mike!
I hope to see you continue on to the rest of the pacific love what you’re doing
Great content video. Loved the kids and teachers welcoming you. Enjoying your travel journey. Blessings and safe travels ❤❤❤
great video, i specially loved to see the students sing. 👏
Thanks so much for watching!
The children are adorable.
Yes they are ! Thanks a lot for watching !
Ivain this is so awesome to take a different stand on education . Yes agriculture is a must .
Iventures Ventures on his amazing journey in Fiji 🇫🇯

Respect boss man. I try to stay away from comparing channels but some travel channels do the skyscraper tourist trap thing, others go to like my country Jamaica and try to find the most derelict places. I like thaf you just do normal.
Thanks so much for watching. I can’t wait to visit Jamaica again.
Hi Ivantures you should head over to Vanuatu, Solom0n Islands and eventually come to Papua New Guinea.
Good vblog ❤
Thanks so much! I appreciate that!
That’s true..
We had corporal punnishment in schools here in the U.S. way back in the sixtes, seventies and before that!
My backside - and palms - still remember those days!
Oy!!! 😫

***How is the relationship between the Indians and the local Fiji population? Is it like they have it in Guyana, acrimonious?
Fiji was one of the places Indians were sent to during the British Indentured Labourer System.
Both communities get along well generally and there are interracial marriages too.
Great vid. As a Fijian native but living overseas, im following yr fiji trip quite eagerly n loving yr the content. I can attest to the corporal punishment during my time growing up .. 70s & 80s and i tell ya - was no joke LOL. the debate is still out on that one i suppose - it did keep me in line and i went on to university then corporate ... but i know others that did NOT succeed due to the harsh discipline. But i fully support the change as our values as a modern society have changed as well. Not to say that Fiji parents no longer whoop their kids at home - oh no they do ! Just not in the school system no more. One thing i wish for is for teachers to get paid more for the hard work they do for such a vital profession.
Yes Fiji is a multi cultural society and i can say theres a lotta harmony between the races in the rural areas. A lil less in urban as you factor in money & business ownership & the so called "class" ( have n have nots ) and with urban rears the ugly head of politics which always hits on our differences as a people for polítical gain. But still as a whole we are harmonious though culturally native Fijians and indo Fijians are on opposite sides of the scale.
My recommendation to you Ivan is also go film at a high school .. and then a tour of the University of the South Pacific in Suva, my alma mater. Youll love it there seeing all the different students from all over the pacific ( as its a university for about 12 or 13 pac island countries) as well as exchange students from overseas including the US.
HAPPY TRAVELS !!
Thanks so much for all the information! It’s very helpful. I also appreciate you checking out my videos. It’s truly appreciated!
I remembered taking a cab ride for cheap from Nadi to Suva
Hello Ivain. Wonderful information. The school infrastructure looks like any other school infrastructure in the developing world. The issue of not caning children came about as a result of countries ratifying the UN Convention on the "Rights of the child that was introduced in 1989". This treat came too late for the rest of us (older generation). Caning was normal. This treaty made it illegal to subject children to torture. It is one of the most widely ratified UN treaties. But there is one country that has not ratified it. Guess which one.
Thanks a lot. Yes, I agree about what you said regarding the infrastructure!
What school did you visit?
Great content Ivan. I thought you missed a key follow up point. The young man said they cremate starting from 17, 18 or so. My question is what happens to those who die aged 16 or younger.
Also Ivan , cremation is widely done in the US by christians , not sure about Muslims. Its just that it is not done in a public way which probably would spook those of us who are not Hindu. In a way it speaks to the comfortability of Hindus around life and death i guess. I am from Zimbabwe where we have many Indians and did not know about some of these practices. I also have been to Mauritius, Tanzania, Kenya, Zanzibar , South Africa etc where there are plenty of Indians and it is always fascinating for me to notice the subtle differences between how laid back the transplants seem to be versus those straight from India. I see you have 26K , true testament that if you provide good content people will subsribe and follow.
Thanks so much for watching! Yes, I didn’t ask about the burial of the young ones because I already knew they get buried. I should have asked for the camera though you are right.
Yes, cremation is done in the US. The reason why this is shocking is because it’s public. That’s very true. Thanks so much for your support!
@@IvainTures Makes sense but i did not know. Did you find out why that distinction between the young and adults. Is it based on some belief in their religion. Really good content Ivan. I love the direction you have chosen for your channel - informative and not some of the gutter stuff some of our people put out on youtube that only serves to ridicule our dignity. Thanks brother.
@@muchit3629 thanks for the kind words. I didn’t go that into the questions but I will when I go to India. It’s a very very fascinating culture.
Madam Sainimili❤
Ivan, that man doesn't have a village. He's a indian fijian descendant. Native fijians are the ones that have villages. If you wanna learn about the real FIJI, then i consider you ask a native fijian to take you around. Im 100% sure you'll find what you're looking for
If someone is doing something good for fiji,best thing is to appreciate. Rather than throwing that race card out there bro.
I'm just trying to help my man over here know the difference
@we-must-we-can Ivan wants to learn about the fijian village life, what this man is showing him is not a fijian village, it's just a settlement
Man you kind off look like E40 the rapper and his brother I gest noted this all these time watching your video
😂
E40 and B-Legit 😂
I have lived in that part of the world decades ago But I know there is still underlying tensions between Native Fijians and INDIANS ( They wish to Control the Island!!! ).
I didn’t know that at all. Thanks a lot for watching!
I think i subtly mentioned that, there was 2 coups because of that. Native fijians own 80% of the land, and many Indians has many businesses.
That is hindi culture bro, in regards to burning of the body. Indo fijian are cool, but is not regarded as Fijians or native Pacific islanders melanesians, polynesians or micronesians
Not these days, the coups stuffed that a long time ago and both communities get along well with each other mostly.
I don't see anything that will change how i see Fiji. It's still the same. The only thing different is that the Govt now provides Free Education which is a positive step in the right direction. Fijian children now are better educated then say 10 - 20 years ago.
Uhhm, the previous government implemented the free education scheme 16 years ago and even implemented loan and scholarships scheme for university student. This government is only continuing that scheme although they have amended the university scholarship and loan scheme.
@@ElenXSav That's right. The previous Govt did a lot in the development of Fiji in many areas including education, which is my comment on children now being better educated. This present "Money Grabbing Govt" is just riding on the back of the previous Govt's success. That's my own personal view and argument for a different Vlogg !
@@whooshkaboomie I totally agree with you, sorry I just mistakenly thought that when you stated that the govt now provides free education you meant that the scheme has just now been introduced.... again totally agree about this present "Money Grabbing Government".....
Hello my brother I would like to move on Fidji with my family my so I would like to know if we can find some job I am a hairdresser with my sister and my husband is mason's help and we have 2 sons
CONGREATULATION 😅😮😢🎉😂❤
Ivan, you're being fooled mahnn, what that man is showing you is not fijian culture!!!!
You're getting yourself into trouble. This is an indirect tourist trap for sure.
Thanks a lot for watching! Fiji is a diverse country and I believe Fijian from Indian origin are also part of that diverse culture.
My videos represent my time with the one person who was willing to show me around and answer questions. My very first video in Fiji shows my time with another group of people as well. Thanks so much for your support!
So let me get this straight, you're not looking to find or to get enlightened about the fijian culture, but about the way of living/learning/earning in Fiji, right?
But I'm just letting you know, perhaps if you also want to learn about the fijian culture, then the culture that this man is showing you is not the fijian culture. Please don't get confused or mixed up with the two totally different cultures 🙂
Other than that, your contents are amazing 👏
