Fiji

After eating at a restaurant we're walking through the park in Suva. I'm feeling incredibly happy because I didn't have the fish. Then it suddenly strikes me: I've become an old worm.

Samoa

I'm walking in downtown Apia, the only city on Samoa. It's a rather conservative place. Walking with a camera and tripod I get the feeling that most people view me as slightly insane.

But now it's festival week. I figure most people will take it for granted that I'm photographing the fire dancers.

After eight years of travelling it's pretty clear that I'm not a good tourist. I'm almost never interested in the sights and events that's being presented.
