First footer returns to lead the Vitika
Tags:
Hello Tribe,
My name is Travis and I am extremely excited to be heading to Fiji to take up the role of Vitika Coordinator.
In September 2006 I was on Vorovoro as a first footer but I only spent a couple of days there, for those that have been, you will know that this wasn’t enough. In the short time I was there I spoke about three words and was in a constant state of relaxed awe…at the beautiful place and at the amazing people but most of all in awe of the fact that the dream of Tribewanted was being born before our eyes.
Since then I’ve played in the corporate world, run some fun events and worked on a couple of TV projects. Most recently I’ve just finished a season guiding on the Milford Track here in New Zealand, taking groups through a very remote part of our country and making sure people got the most out of their trip, something that will crossover as we relaunch and grow the Vitika.
Ever since my first visit I’ve always had a return in mind and to be able to do so whilst contributing to the growth of the project makes me very proud. I am looking forward to throwing everything I’ve got at the Vitika and building upon the fantastic start made by Sloggs and Junior.
Taking the values and experience of Tribewanted off the beaten track is a fantastic progression and doubtless will be an absolute blast of an adventure.
Lets all take the road less traveled… next departure from the Grand Eastern, Labasa 18th May

No doubt you’ll be grand as Vitika’s leader

Nice one Travis! I’m sure you’ll do a great job developing this wonderful idea and will lift it to where it should be, a fantastic addition to anybody’s travel plans.
You’ll also have a really good time yourself, don’t miss a single moment mate!
Sloggs :)
Congratulations Travis!
I completed the first Vitika with Sloggs and will be back on Vv from about the 11th May for a couple of weeks or so. Happy to have a chat and recount our adventure and experiences!
If you’re going to Udu Point don’t forget to pack a marker pen! Senga.
