The Nomads are back in Fiji. This time we we arrived in Suva east of the main island. Fiji is a fabulous place to visit, first and foremost because of its friendly inhabitants. Probably Fiji’s greatest asset. Of course it also has the most developed tourist facilities and infrastructure in the whole of Melanesia. Sun, sea and beach lovers, or honeymooners for that matter, will not be disappointed. The interior has plenty of natural beauty on offer and if you are interested in culture, like these Nomads, there are plenty of opportunities to explore that to.
In short a safe and hassle free holiday destination. Now so far so good for the travelers sales pitch. But what makes all of this so fascinating is perhaps the fact that Fiji is considered somewhat of a millitary dictatorship without essential democratic attributes like for instance a chosen parliament. The lack of lets say freedom of speech is something that highly frustrates and worries it's big neighbours Australia and New Zealand. Fiji has had a series of coups upsetting the Pacific region.
