Can't answer all of your questions but I will answer this one.
If you could take any landmark or geographical feature from another part of the world and move it to the area where you live, what would you choose
Fiji is a tropical island. It has gorgeous sunny weather most of the time. When you convert your currency to Fijian dollars you will benefit from the exchange rates. I absolutely love the food in Fiji! If you love to indulge in seafood, fruits and vegetables your in luck! Fiji has the BEST prawns, fishes and huge mud crabs. Fijian markets are filled with coconuts, mangoes, pawpaws, all sorts of tropical fruits. It is cheap. However, if your a chocolate lover, a block of chocolate is around $15.00 NZ dollars, so you would need to stock up before you leave your country. Things to consider when living there for months? Living in Fiji means beaches, rain forests, fresh seafood, beauitful weather and the friendly natives.
