And Nadi? It’s a one-street town dotted with shops on both sides. A local coffee chain called “Bulaccino” (Bula is their local greeting) became my go-to wherever I went, and it was on this street that I made Fijian friends, as well as an acquaintanceship with some Punjabis from Jalandhar who run sugarcane juice shops and were happy to tell me how they had escaped their lives back home. FYI: Fiji remains visa-free for Indians, and until flights get less expensive, their government need not worry about illegal immigrants.
