“With my background and experience in strategic communication and PR, I felt I could really contribute … If you were considering coming here and were not sure if it was the right thing to do, just do it. You won’t regret it for a second, and you will most likely fall in love with the place too.” Elaine-Rose Murray : Confessions of a Vorovoro Newbie

Give and take

Sharing experience and knowledge is reciprocal on Vorovoro. Members who visit leave with more than they came with. The experience is less about teaching and more about exchange.

Most of the projects being tackled on Vorovoro are ones that are not new to Fijian culture. The value of these projects come when Fijian and foreign experience and knowledge is applied to the same project and a truly unique experience is created.

True cultural exchange

Often times, one culture will enlighten the other to things that were not previously seen. For example, how do Fijians build level buildings without a t-square? Answer: the ocean is the ultimate level. These lessons are not taught, but learned through experience.

Just as Tribe members are bringing much new technological knowledge to the island (sustainable practices, renewable energy, etc.), they are leaving with just as much.

Return with experience

“I have been away about 2 weeks now and still find myself thinking about Vorovoro every day and wishing I was there.” Lottie Ireland : 5 weeks on Vorovoro

The ways to be involved are as diverse as careers in the world.
