The shortest longest three weeks of my life

Almost three weeks ago I left Vorovoro with a heavy heart….. The sense of belonging I felt made me emotional and not wanting to leave even though I had some exciting things to return to in Brisbane. Why such a tug?

I connected with some fantastic people – met and shared knowledge with some amazing young travellers, passionate staff, grandfathers, graduates, men, women and chiefs. I got some insight into the Fijian way of life which is subtle, complex, multi-layered, perfect and not perfect.

At first I chilled out to slough off the manic world I left on …

So, as the shower debate continues, and I dig myself further and further into the troublemaker hole, I wanted to again raise resources like the Open Architecture Network, founded by TED winner, Cameron Sinclair, an amazing sustainable architect and humanitarian.

Leveraging the open source movement, where intellectual property is shared, so that it may be improved upon, this is an amazing asset for lower income projects.

I did a quick search on shower constructions, and this project had an interesting bit as shown in the photo.

I haven’t looked into it thoroughly, but I wanted …

  • Energy

    Power; electricity; energy. Our lives rely upon energy, but how it is sourced, used, and concerved can make all the difference. How do energy lessons from home and abroad affect one another?

  • Food

    We take food for granted, but where and how it is grown, how it is transpored and consumed, and how it is disposed of all become very important when on a desserted island.

  • Transport

    All things transportation. Getting from point A to point B is easy. It's when going to point Z that the impact on the local and global environment becomes apparent.

  • Sustain

    No island is an island, and the influence of our presence in this world can be felt culturally, biologically, environmentally, and economically.

  • Drink

    Water, water, everywhere. The most precious and necessary resource for living. What is the balance of water, alcohol, and kava on our island?

  • Build

    Nothing is built for free, and costs are measured not only in currency, but also in time, resources, and environmental and cultural footprint.

  • Waste

    What do we throw away? Out of sight but not out of mind, because some of the trash we throw away will be around for generations.

  • Technology

    The promise of technology is that it's supposed to make our lives easier, the world safer, and improve life for those that it touches. How is technology affecting the Tribe and the world at large?
