How Many Places In Fiji Have You Been To?
I have visited many places in Fiji.
In the interiors of Namosi to Rakiraki and I have been to Yasawas island, Taveuni island, Moturiki Island, Rabi and Rotuma. I have been to Ovalau many times.
I usually venture to those areas where most tourists don’t go and are hard to reach.
