Ibi Okusaga: An Island Child in Fiji
So it was Easter recently and going to Fiji just seemed like the right thing to do. To be honest I knew nothing about Fiji before then, except from the fact Fiji water comes from there. Studying in Australia, Fiji seemed like such a desirable place to visit because the flight there is relatively short only 3 hours away.

Getting lost and finding our way back is actually funny and interesting. Pit of my holiday: I wasn't feeling too well for some days which really affected my mood.
Warami Eresanara: Thoughts on my Trip to China- Part 2.
As Confucius once said, “Tell me and I will forget. Show me and I may remember. Involve me and I will understand.” China was a great experience for me because I learned a lot. I learned a lot from the diversity of the group; having both business and engineering majors as well as computer science and social work in the mix helped broaden my view. Although diversity in the academic area was key, I also learned a lot from just interacting with the group on a social level. From my interactions with both my group and with the native Chinese people, I came to better understand that our similarities and differences are what make us who we are. We are not defined by these characteristics (similarities and differences), but they are what allow us to understand and live with each other more harmoniously.
Warami Eresanara: Visiting China!
I graduated from College (University) in 2015 and sadly I haven’t had the time to go anywhere because of work. Writing about a trip I took to China during my time in College (January 2015) brings back so many memories. I don’t know that I remember the trip in great detail, but I will try my best to be as accurate as possible. Before I proceed, I would like to inform you that my trip was as much an educational trip as it was a fun one; which essentially means that I went to China with my school (for a class) but I still had a lot of fun! I am going to be dividing this post into two parts; the first will be about all the provinces we went to and the places we visited while we were there, and the second will be more of my reflections/ thoughts about my time in China. I would also like you to know that although I will be highlighting some similarities and differences between China and America I will try my best to be gracious.
