Who are we and why in the world are we in Fiji?

We are Jimmy, Jenny, Lucas, Bethany, and Oliver Cahill. We've recently returned from 10 weeks in Fiji, where we were involved with a project called TribeWanted. While we were there we lived and worked within an international community co-creating a sustainable eco-village with the indigenous tribe members of the island. While there, our family accepted the challenge of leading the project for the next year. We are currently home until mid/late October, then return to Fiji for one year. We invite you to follow along on our journey here - as our lives and paths continue to unfold, we will share our experiences with you through words, photos and video. “Certainly, travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living.”

Almost time to come home...

Just a quick note to let everyone know that we are doing okay - just haven't been able to get to the internet for a while.  We have a few more days here, then we fly to Nadi for a couple days, then it's home.  We will be back in Indy early next Friday, Sept. 4.  

Life here is well - busy with lots of work and preparations for the 3rd year anniversary of the project.    Bittersweet - we are eager to come home and see all those whom we miss so much, but sad to leave the friends and culture we have come to love so much.  Sure to be an emotional parting, I'm sure.

Off for now.  Next update will be when we get to Nadi. Till then, much love to you...
