I'm here!  What a day!  I was welcomed "Fiji style" which means as best as I can tell you eat lots of amazing food and get presents and everyone is totally awesome.  I am still figuring out technology while here and that means that currently this is the best I can do.  I managed to somehow delete 2 blog posts and lose all of my pictures from today, but other than that the tech thing is going great.  Well, not exactly.  Wifi is not a thing in Fiji.  Or not a thing with anyone I've met or any of the places I've been so far.  So... after much discussion it was decided that I should get a SIM card.  I'm supposed to be able to still text and Facetime with iphone users, but I tried texting and haven't gotten a response from anyone.  Someone should try to text me or Facetime at this number...6798698136.  I think you may have to use the code 011 first. But don't do it if it's going to cost you money.  I will get good at this by tomorrow.

Just know that all is well.  Fiji rocks!  I have a perfectly lovely office - decorated with love by the faculty here.  My guest house accommodations will suffice. I have met tons of people and have two more days of greetings coming up.

Highlights from today: 1. A surprise afternoon tea-party with students in an early childhood seminar that included a beautiful flower arrangement just for me.  2. Sangeeta (my host) made Indian food for brunch and my stomach is so happy.  3. The mountains here are legit.
Much love!

  1. Hey world traveler! Just wanted to say hi and let you know that I really love the title of your blog :) Bummed that I didn't think of it, but it's just right!
