"What luck that I'm stuck!": the Russians said about the isolation in Fiji

The Izhevsk Andrey Smirnov arrived in Fiji two months ago, expecting to stay there very long. But this whole situation with coronavirus a man literally stuck on the island — it is not possible to return to Russia, and go to the neighboring Islands do not allow Finance.

Nevertheless the Russians are not complains and says that during this time, found true happiness. A house by the ocean, palm trees, white sand... read More about the "luxury" of insulation Andrew read below.

Two months ago Andrew was sorry that he could not return to Russia together with the evacuation group. But now the man is sincerely glad that the situation turned out this way.

Together with Andrew on the island stuck another 26 Russians, including the Chairman of the Committee on budgetary and tax policy of the Duma of the Volgograd region and the member of "United Russia". Most of them settled in expensive hotels near the airport in the hope of a speedy liberation. But since Andrew was a little low on money, he had to go away from civilization in the jungle. Here a man takes a house on the ocean, and even moonlights as a chef.

The Izhevsk tells that during these two months managed to make friends with the locals and feel the local atmosphere.

Of the minuses — the lack of freedom of choice. Though air transportation with other countries closed here, Fiji is allowed to cross by boat from one island to another, as do many tourists. Andrew is afraid to leave the "habitable" place, I do not know what awaits him tomorrow...

The resort, which is now Andrew, in addition to him there was only one tourist is Chinese and a few local.

It was here that Andrew first had the opportunity to try yourself as a chef. The Russians has surprised colleagues by isolation classic pancakes, Uzbek somsa and Russian borscht. Because of sour cream in Fiji no, instead she had to use coconut milk.

However, Andrew says that he misses Russia and my mother, who was left alone in Izhevsk. But after talking it over with her and friends, the man realized that to break the island while that makes no sense — here, in contrast to Russia, the situation with coronavirus calm.
