A solution to Corruption? - Social Enterprise
Please forgive the clickbait title, as there is no easy way to solve corruption. This trait has been ingrained in human society since the dawn of time, and no new business model can fix this.

Yet this new relatively new business model, social enterprise, does have merit in contributing aid in areas particularly stricken with corruption. The company I worked with in Malawi, Project Everest, is dedicated to creating socially beneficial goods and services for the people who need them.

By creating socially beneficial goods and services, in comparison to monetary and other forms of aid, there is no chance for corrupt government bodies and officials to act as a middleman in the distribution process. By providing sustainable and socially beneficial business straight to the consumers in need.

The inherent problem with the charity model will be explored in the next blog post, as for a special treat, this topic deserves a more in depth analysis.

Fiji

Nadi  The Fiji islands is north of Australia. It's capital is Suva which is on Viti levu and the tourist city is Nadi which is on Van levu. It has a population of one million. The people of Fiji are known for their friendliness, hospitality and their uniqueness hence they all "run on Fiji time". I went to Dolai suva national park where they had a naturally made water spring along with a water fall usually tourists aren't allowed but thanks to my friend we got a chance to vist the beautiful place, we had kasava and dalo the staple crops of fiji.  Suva city  I recommend that you try these restaurants when you are at Fiji Gokul(Suva),  Blooywood cafe, Tappo city(in cities), Kylin(Nadi), Mama city(Nadi), Asiana(Lautuka).            Maya Dhaba, Suva Fiji -Asad Shahani

London

London is another city that is rich with culture and history. Around every corner there is a structural masterpiece, whether new or old, they all make up the iconic skyline of London. Starting out where the Queen resides,  Buckingham Palace is always on the top of the to do list while in London, although it is beautiful to just admire, it's also worth taking a look at the Changing of the Guards timetable  and try to get a bit of a show in too!   Of course another favourite is the London Eye, which gives you probably one of the best views of London. You're able to look left and see the city which has been built up with business buildings and The Shard, and to the right, it's more historic with Westminster Abbey, Big Ben and Buckingham Palace.  Finally, London also has some great shopping destinations, such as Oxford St, Carnaby St and Covent Garden, where you're able to walk the streets, see some architecture all while window shopping.  - Jade
