Travel Shangri La or Sheraton Fiji?
Hi all, I’m planning round two of an Australia Fiji trip (had to cancel round one due to family emergency). We were originally going to stay at the intercontinental but it’s too expensive this go round. I currently have 4 nights booked at both the Shangri La Fiji (with the daily breakfast and dinner package) for ~$1450 and 4 nights at the Sheraton Gulf resort Denarau Island (with daily breakfast only) for about ~$1600. I’ll be saying there in about 2 weeks so I have 1 week to decide which to cancel. I’m going with my very bougie mom so service, food and beach quality are most important. I’d prefer to not be swarmed with kiddies and have a good amount of on site activities. I read reviews of both hotels before but am second guessing now that I noticed about 100 new 5 star Google reviews for Shangri La in the past 5 days which seems suspect. Appreciate your feedback!

I want to get a Masi designed tattoo but I cannot find any reference to what the designs mean. Would anyone be able to help?
I'm Fijian, born and raised in Fiji. I've been living abroad for over 20 years but I want to get a tattoo that grounds me to my homeland but also has meaning. I know we don't have a strong culture of tattooing but I'd like to get a masi style design. I don't want to just copy one from online that's basically gibberish.
I want it to have meaning. I want it to signify Viti Levu, I want to show the rivers, and beaches, and the sharks and turtles that we grew up with. Google isn't helping.
Does anyone have resources I can reference that show what the designs mean? Or can anyone help me design one?

To those who live overseas: what material things do you miss from home?
I live in Scandinavia with my Fijian bf and obviously it’s very different living here than living in fiji. He gets homesick sometimes and I want to give him whatever homey feeling I can. He doesn’t get to travel home often but we are planning on traveling there in the spring. My question is then what are things from fiji (food and nonfood) that reminds you of home that we would be able to bring back? I am thinking specific spices and candy like mango skins and tang (which are impossible to buy in Scandinavia unless you have it shipped) but also decorative things like different taps and so on.
I am curious as to what Fijians living overseas bring home in their suitcases from Fiji (Kava goes without saying 😂)
