Natovi to Mongolia - Fiji Times Online

Natovi to Mongolia - Fiji Times Online: "Joe says some of the things, especially food, they miss about Fiji are; dalo, tavioka, ota, fresh fish, rourou, miti, fresh coconut milk (lolo) and other Fijian food. The only root crops they see in the market are kumala and potatoes. Mongolia is landlocked so there is only freshwater fish but which are not so tasty as fish from the sea.

Mongolia, Joe says is similar to Fiji in terms of the state of development of infrastructure.

The Mongolian people, he says, would undoubtedly be one of the more resilient people on earth, considering that Ulaanbaatar is statistically the coldest capital city in the entire world.

"Winter can get as cold as -45 degrees Celsius. Winter gets so cold that we find ourselves spending time at home and not going out.""
