Kadavu community project❣️❣️
My heart is overflowing with gratitude as I look back on the beautiful journey, the wonderful people we met, and the incredible hospitality shown to my crew and me.
Thank you, Levuka, for your hospitality and your beautiful, accommodating hearts. ❤️
Malo vakalevu Mr Nem Rstone, for opening up your humble abode and welcoming my crew and me with such kindness. Your generosity will always be remembered.
To Momo Jone Katawai and our lovely Nei, Mrs Katawai of Daviqele, Nabukelevu District School, vinaka vakalevu for your loving warmth and for making sure we were always well fed and kept warm. To Mr & Mrs Tuki, thank you for doting on us daily and making us feel so cared for.
A special vinaka vakalevu to Manidia Turaga Yanu Save and his beautiful wife for those delicious hot breads and soft, yummy buns. 😋❤️
To Madam Bakata and your bubbly-souled husband, Meli, thank you for making sure we had fresh fish with every meal we enjoyed at Nabukelevuira. To the wonderful parents of your ECE, vinaka vakalevu for heeding the call to help accommodate us and for making sure our tummies were never empty and our throats never dry. Your generosity truly touched my heart.
Madam, I will forever appreciate that you chose to open your beautiful, warm home to us and made us feel like family. ❤️
Thank you to your Manidia for taking us out on his boat, showing us the breathtaking beauty of Nagigia Island and the famous Senigigia flower. What a beautiful experience and memory to treasure! 🌺🌊
And to your beautiful Dauniyau, thank you for diligently standing beside you throughout our stay.
Malo vakalevu Taloulia! 😅 You certainly made me sweat out all the fats I collected from Levuka, Daviqele and Nabukelevuira while climbing that long, steep footpath to your beautiful Eliki Memorial School! 😂❤️ It was worth every step.
Vinaka vakalevu noqu vasu for the loloma kei na veikawaitaki shown to us by your Radini Vale, Cooker Emele and her husband, and the beautiful Mrs Naomi and her doting husband. Your kindness and care meant so much to us.
A very special thank you to my Partner in Crime, Manidia Vetaia, for bearing the cold with me and helping me complete my mural. We did it! ❤️🎨
My heartfelt appreciation also goes to Madam Sereima of Richmond Methodist Primary School. Madam, I am so thankful for your loving, devoted and selfless heart that made us feel completely at home. Thank you for everything you and your wonderful teachers did for us — ensuring we were always well fed, cared for and slept warm every night.
Every meal shared, every home opened, every laugh, every helping hand and every act of kindness reminded me of the beautiful spirit of our people — loloma, veikawaitaki and veiqaravi.
I came to share my gift through my murals, but I leave carrying something even more precious — beautiful memories, new friendships and a heart filled with gratitude. ❤️🎨
Malo vakalevu, Kadavu, for an unforgettable time of my life. You have left footprints on my heart that I will carry with me always.
Sota tale ena dua na gauna lekaleka ga qo. ❤️🙏🏽
Vinaka vakalevu, Kadavu. Until we meet again. 🌺🌊❤️
