After a turbulent start, the internet tribe begin to settle into their third month on Vorovoro – just as the Fijian government faces a military coup. The foundations of the eco-tourist village are in place, but the project is still far from a green reality. Tribe member Dan is leading the drive towards self-sufficiency, learning much from the locals. But progress is forced to stop as political tensions rapidly escalate within the Fijian government and the country is rocked by a full-blown coup d’etat, leading international governments to warn against travelling there.
