Fiji
Our Fiji trip offers a unique experience. World Horizons has a special relationship with the village and the tribal chief of Nakora Kula. You will live in the coastal village at the northernmost point of the beautiful island of Viti Levu, at the personal invitation of the Chief. Experience life in a simple, tribal village and know that your efforts will be enthusiastically received.
Working under the direction of the Chief and the senior education officer for the RakiRaki region, you will assist teachers in the local schools and help teach children"s activities such as sports, dancing and singing. In addition, you may be involved with small projects around the village.
"My journey to Nokoro Kula village will always be remembered as one of the most rewarding and exciting experiences of my life. We were embraced fully into the Fijian lifestyle by each person we encountered, and, as a result, our cultural immersion was most profound. My fellow travelers and our group leaders were among the most amazing people I have ever had the privilege to know, and these friends are sure to last a lifetime. ...I would go back to Fiji in a heartbeat." -- Kelly Gleischman, California
