Moving to Fiji

Are you thinking about moving to Fiji? It’s understandable as Fiji is one of the most famous vacation and honeymoon locations in the world. Living in Fiji can be expensive or affordable depending on the island and the type of lifestyle you lead. In the capital city of Suva, the cost of living can prove to be high. This is not true in all areas, as many parts of the country are quite affordable. However, when you arrive in Fiji, you’ll feel like you found paradise.

What’s Fiji Culture Like?

Because of the tourism and frequent travel, it’s not uncommon to see expats living in Suva or Nadi. It’s also home to various international schools, sometimes representing students from over 40 countries. Jobs are not as abundant as more populated cities and countries, but it plays host to an active tourism and hospitality industry.

In fact, the famous Coral Coast is an area of Fiji on Viti Levu designed to accommodate incoming tourism. It’s home to beautiful scenery, beaches, and crystalline waters. Wherever you decide to work, you’ll need a work permit from your employer, as a travel visa doesn’t cut it in Fiji.

It’s also extremely comfortable for United States citizens to transition as English is the primary language in Fiji. Locals may also speak Fijian or Hindi. If you’re looking for a comfortable move that allows you to live on island time, Fiji is the place for you.
