Recently we headed over to Fiji for a wedding and as usual, decided to make the most of it and head over a week early and go on an adventure. Fiji for me was a first & words couldn't have ever described how excited I was.

Arriving a week early & staying in a gorgeous Fijian resort called ‘DoubleTree Hilton’ life didn't get much better than this. Or at least we didn't think so, life at this point in time was pretty damn good. We were on our own little island called Sonaisali, in a stunning resort with beautiful service that always came with a smile accompanied by the awe-inspiring views of ocean & little islands scattered along the horizon we truly felt like we were in paradise. Life was bliss.

On our first official Fiji adventure, we planned a more cultural experience, going on a day trip to the Suva River. Arriving in the small town we were greeted by friendly Fijian men and few other tourists from various hotels around the mainland. Putting our life jackets on we got ready to head onto the boats they had waiting for us. Travelling down the river was a unique experience in itself, the landscape surrounding us was just beautiful, big hills & cliffs covered in greenery of all shades accompanied by the occasional waterfall this was definitely a treat for two passionate photographers.

As we were travelling down the river we saw a few cows & horses, weirdly enough this didn't suit the landscape we were surrounded in.. or at least not where we were used to seeing these kinds of animals back at home anyway. This made it all the more interesting, here we were expecting king kong to come swinging around the corner, it looked near identical.

Travelling up the river we can to a stop, going for a short walk along a small stream we can to a stupendous waterfall, with water gushing down into a pool down the bottom it was quite the sight. It wasn't long before someone was in the water enjoying the wonders of nature, as one went near everyone went. I, of course, couldn't have passed this opportunity up, so in we went. The water was soothingly refreshing & I loved every minute of it.

Heading back down the river we stopped off at a little village, walking up the steps and into an undercover area they showed us how they traditionally cook their meat. Something I had definitely never seen before, this was the lunch they were preparing for us and it smelt amazing!

Coming into a bigger room we all sat down for a traditional Cava ceremony, men sitting at the front and women not far behind. Lucky Rob was selected to be the chief of the village for the day and received the first serve of cava. I hadn't tried this before & neither had Rob so we weren't exactly sure what to expect… being the root of a plant that had been dried out over many days..crushed & then mixed with water to make a drink we were curious as to why this was something the Fijian people enjoyed doing.. & even after our time there the only reasoning we came up with was that they enjoyed it, and strangely enough we did too. The plant itself had a slight numbing effect on the mouth, nothing too drastic but it was quite the unique experience. I think all up we went back for seconds maybe 2 or 3 times, just because we enjoyed it so much.

Shortly after the Cava Ceremony, we had some lunch that was prepared by the women of the village, traditional Fijian food. And my goodness it was delicious! Again, going back for seconds it was just too good not to! After lunch, we all enjoyed a sing & a dance with the village people dancing around the room having a blast.

Coming back up the river was a beautiful experience just soaking up the wondrous scenery all around, at that moment we felt very blessed to be on such a wonderful journey together.

Following this amazing journey we the next day decided to go horse riding along the island beachfront, for us all we had ridden horses before so walking along was fun.. but not as fun as cantering along the beach side by side. Before long we were doing just this, in the beautiful afternoon sunset riding horses is yet another great experience & memory we will forever cherish. That night we were treated to some very talented fire twirlers and Fijian dancers whom might I just add put on a spectacular show! Fiji just kept getting better and better by the day.

Our second Fiji adventure was no less extravagant, travelling to a gorgeous little island amongst the hundreds of them we had the privilege of going snorkelling alongside fish that were swarming around us like bee’s to a honey pot. Diving beneath the water to see all of the corrals it was like nothing I had yet experienced. Meeting one of our team Jess there this made it all the more fun, soaking up the sun, sand and crystal clear water it was a great way to kick off our second week in Fiji.
